1. 2. Use 27mm socket on crank to turn the engine clockwise as viewed from the front of the car. If you overshoot TDC on the crank, you can back up CCW then re-approach CW. (Don't go backwards (CCW) and stop at TDC). 3. Removing plugs makes turning easier and more precise.

That Blue Truck is similar to That Blue Z!!!!

Weather sounds so much like Weber.... change in the weather/ change in the Weber. A slightly bigger main should help.... more HP with that one! btw did you see F1 on the weekend where the high altitude thin air caused less HP? Very interesting.

Overview of control cable routing (correct me if I am wrong, I never decoded this stuff before). 1) the top slider controls two flaps (red) -a fresh/recirculate flap in the fan box -a direction flap in the middle assembly (routes air from fan towards vents in dash or through heater core towards floor and windshield defrost) This flap can completely close off air flow through heater core. 2) the middle slider controls the hot water valve (blue) 3) the bottom cable controls the foot area doors (green) - when the air is routed through the heater core with the top slider, it then routes to the windshield and foot area; this slider can close off the foot area and force all hot air to the windshield Controls as viewed from fire wall Water Hoses, core and control wire: Flap that closes off air flow through heater core and middle control wire 1 of 2: Flap that closes off fresh air at glove box (control wire 2 of 2 not shown) Floor Door flaps, internal linkage to other door, and control wire

For all of Alan's Alan-isims, you have to love and respect him. He is a great resource and shares a lot of interesting information that few in the world have. We are a band of brothers and sisters here..... life is too short to waste time bickering. Just look for someone's good points and life will be better for all....
