I replaced my ignition coil yesterday. Today I flushed my coolant the best I could out front of my house and kinda made a mess. Replaced the thermostat and radiator cap. I managed to break my fan shroud, so I will be hitting the junk yard for a replacement this week or weekend.

Note done yet, but on the list for today... Removing front hook and bumper and transferring them both to new XJ. Might trip the sides before I install it. Then wire in the lights from that bumper, run wires back to reverse lights, install Stereo from old XJ as well (it has SD reader for music while trail riding). If time, mount CB and run wires for it as well.

I took off valve cover and lost one of the bolt and pulled the other one that was broken (just hand turned out, after 4 weeks of pb blaster {SCORE}) everything looks good up top actually a lot better than i thought. Washed valve cover. Changed oil and seafoamed before the oil change.

HOLY CRAP SHE LOVES NEW OIL!!!!!!
