Well the catch can isn't on because you're trying to toss it on. Try using bolts and what not. Much easier.

I mounted the new catch can, then couldnt find the spool of tubing that I had So its just chillin in the engine bay mindin its own business. No pics yet. If I can get to the store Ill get it hooked up today, if not tomorrow. Good thing I didnt remove the old catch can yet.

I finished the install on the catch can tonight when I got home from work.

Hot engine + 100*+ garage = a very uncomfortable work environment.

Works been killing me. Since I got back from NY Ive been working 60hr weeks. Im probably going to finish stripping the wheels this weekend and work on the headlights (hopefully finish them). I still can't do a whole lot because of the surgery, so doing big things to the car is still on hold for a bit. I can't promise that the wheel will be done by the Mischief meet, but they will be done by the Cars and Coffee meet in NC in October (although I still haven't decided if Im taking the bike instead).

Health first! Glad to hear you're well enough to work on the car in the heat!

Today, it was as hot as Satans ball-sack after an all-night orgy and they say its going to be even hotter tomorrow I dont feel the heat since Im at work by 7am, but going to lunch sucks. Makes me wish I was working nights again.

And to compound matters, my a/c downstairs took a shit. Its as old as the house though (16 or 17 years). We had to replace the upstairs unit two years ago. Luckily it gets cool enough at night that we open the windows down there to let some cool air in, but it stays right around 81* during the day

What are friends for, right? My brother went out and bought window a/c units when the upstairs unit went out just until it was replaced since it was the middle of summer and every a/c company was back logged

We've got another guy coming in the morning to take a look at the unit downstairs and give us an estimate. We're really in no rush since we dont spend much time down there. We just dont want it to get too hot.
