Moments ago, for the first time in years, my sweet baby 02 breathed on her own... if only for a short while.
I got the engine electrical all hooked up, got the battery wired into the trunk (mostly), then I started putting some water in the radiator. It ran to the ground cuz I'm missing a hose. (My dog ate it.) So, I decided I'd see if I could get it to fire anyway. Took the spark plugs out, and spun it over to get some oil moved around. Put the spark plugs back in and turned it over, waited for the gas to get up there. Well, gas got up there and nothing. Poured some gas in the carb, still nothing. ****. Call it a day, start to put my tools away, realize I left the coil wire off. D'oh. Hook it up, turn the key - vroom vroom! (Timing is not quite there, but it started god damnit!!)
