Engine R/R Easy way!

I've always got the condenser to kinda fold back out of the way. Saves money on not having to get it recharged

That's what I usually do but I have had two trucks develop leaks where the hose goes into the pipe. I guess the trucks are getting older and don't like having the hoses pulled to the side. Over a hundred bucks for the hoses! Luckily I can charge my own system!
 
Damnit rain in CA on the day I want to finish this up! What horrible weather...........Hey how's the east coast doing? LOL
 
Hey ok it's alive wow runs sweet! Just one thing driving me nuts! I have a coolant leak coming out the tranny inspection plate. Can't find it HELP!
 
Two side stories to end this thread or blow it up LOL!
#1 First start, crank fire BANG BANG! oH ****! Hard knock what did I do wrong? Pull the valve cover look for damage found a valve bridge missing? Found it two cylinders over!
Must have not had it seated right when I adjusted the valves and it kicked out after seating and finding to much clearance like a 1/4 inch! No damage reinstalled readjusted and fired up no issues ran great! That was my OH SH*T moment!

#2 Drove it to work today 50 miles good break in. Romped it a few times felt good! Coming down the freeway a guy in a ford wants to play rides my ass ok got a good hill coming up open lane no cars floor it he disappears in a cloud 10 truck lengths in 3 seconds he tries for a milisecond then jumps into a lane full of cars never to be seen again I even slowed down! LOL That was my HELL YEAH moment!
Now I just have to figure out this coolant leak!

I did that too! Such a little wire with such an important job!
I haven't looked for it yet spent the day on the back of a flat bed I blew a tranny line apart! Life surely sucked this afternoon!
