Well Hello There Fellow Technicians And Hivers!
Getting Her Back In!
Well guys, the time has come!
Yeah I've been saying that for quite some time now but now it really is time!
I've fitted the clutch and got the transmission loaded and headed over to my uncles house where I pulled the car apart in early January!
Heck I think he will be relieved to see it gone now!
And it was at this moment where I realized that whatever I am trying to do is not going to work!
The Granny's Plan!
You think I am joking?
My granny really gave me this idea and at first I thought it to be totally absurd. Absurd until I gave it a long hard stare!
See the car wasn't jacked up high enough and the jack I used started failing, so I kind of had to devise this plan right here! Which the Granny gave me!
Let me tell you, I've never in my life joined a transmission to a motorblock with such ease! Never!
Especially not with these, the clutch has studs and they need to be aligned along with the casing, it was joined within seconds!
The Sped Up Process!
Well after finishing up what needs to be done and I really got it done fast! It's funny how fast and effectively one can work on your own stuff hey?
It went like clockwork! Literally the clock was ticking. 🤣
I Wonder What Normal People See!
This must be one giant mess for most normal people, a bunch of stuff that just gives you googly eyes! Laughs!
With everything in place and set, mind you I need to get a new battery ASAP as well! Even a battery can cause transmission problems!
Never mind all the wires and stuff, I'll leave the tidying up for another day, for now we need to get this car going and tested!
Time Has Really Ticked!
She's done!
I had a few electrical errors so it didn't start up that night, I towed it into the shop the next day and we swapped out a few stuff and it turned out that my "Park and Neutral" sensor got buggered up in the process, that is what happens to cars that stand for a long time!
The P and N sensor picks up in what gear it is and if it isn't in either Park or Neutral it wont start, naturally if the sensor is buggered up it can't read in what position it is and there for it wont start up at all!
I really thought this was something much worse than it was!
She had me worried there for some time!
