I had a few issues that needed to be attended to, and today was the day to fix em.

Replaced the water pump, timing belt, cam seal, cam cover gasket, gas cap, and sway bar bushings.

Water pump was weeping, timing belt was chewed up from timing cover, cam cover gasket was leaking from some petrified gasket I missed on last replacement, sway bar bushings were shot, and the rubber seal on the gas cap was non-existent.

All that's left is to replace all my a/c o-ring and the drier so that I can charge up the system with some r-12 I picked up. It's Dupont so no Propane in there. I can't wait for some frosty R12 goodness.

I had a productive day today, too. Fixed my idle problem, stopped the horn sounding randomly and reattached the relay socket for the radio. The latter involved removing the centre console...
