Created on 2002-01-16 00:00:00
Well, I fixed most of the leaks by using some silicone RTV to help the lower windshield seals seal properly. I'm just using the B for short errand trips right now, the valvetrain is very noisy since #2 dropped and I'm basically just trying to use up what gas is left in the tank before my insurance runs out at the end of the month. Then its time to start total disassembly!
