Hey we got to drive her about 35 miles around town today.  Not too many
issue considering this is the first time it's been on a public road since
1989. The running rich issue with the first few mins it's cranked is still
there but driving it some has helped a little.  A few other issues as well
but most of them can be addressed without too much of a big fat harry deal.
The biggest problem is the skipping it has when you move the gas paddle up
or down or hold it at a certain RPM. But when you hold it steady at most
range it dose fine. Could this be the throttle position sensor?  Guess I
need to go back and re check everything. With all the running rich I may
have just killed the plugs.  Any way I just want to thank everybody for the
kind words.  Everybody on here is about the nicest group of car guys I have
ever worked with and I have worked with a bunch over the 30 years I have
been in this business.  It has been a very emotional 48 HRS. It still don't
seem real.  Anyway it we took some quick videos of her going down the road
close to where I live. The first one is a combo of the last two but the
first one may not be processed unless you are reading this much later than
when this was posted so if that's the case watch the other 2.
