finally got the o-rings i needed, got the fel-pro ones too, the o-rings were great, but the fuel rail got tweaked some how, so i went to the junk yard and got a rail off a 93 ZJ, works perfectly, now im just trying to get her to start, so tonight im checking for spark and voltage out of the coil, and hopefully those are good, but she'll turn over and sounds like she wants to start, but just wont lol, any ideas? thx guys

Washed it, only to get it muddy again. Fixed the broken glovebox stops with glued on pieces of plastic (works GREAT), and washed out the bone dry (coolant wise) yet muddy coolant tank. No clue how mud got in there but it did and it wasn't from me.
Changed the oil/filter yesterday, and replaced the crappy factory 2-piece oil cap with a 1 piece.
Getting ready for a 550 mile trip up to PA tomorrow morning... hope she does well.
EDIT - Just fixed a weak hatch latch mechanism with some more plastic spacers (on the inside under the panel of course)

Yeah I do, but I meant to say I rolled over 278k...yeah not as near as eventful.
Really really thought about replacing my heater core tomorrow, along with about 80 other things I need to get done. Stared at these beautiful new tires I got that only seem to look better with every bit of dirt and scratch I get on them.
Oh, funny story:
So I had a guy contact me about those nerf bars, offered $100 for them (which is exactly what I paid for the useless pieces of crap), I said I'd take it. So he shows up, I pull them out of the garage and show them to him, he says they look good and he'll take them (after checking out how they mount and stuff). As I'm loading them up, he says, "man, these look nice and beefy." I stop, stare at my friend, and say, "They sure do."
