the headlight spot cleaning looks like the car paint has some potential for a second life!

Ya tomorrow after oil change and removing the stale fuel I am going to wash it twice, clay, than two coats of wax. Should come out well.

Also going to install new spark plugs.

I would use some polish before putting the wax on.

That is coming around nicely. I need to work on my project now.

Wait until tomorrow.

I hope to have it on the road by the end of next week or at least before I start school back on the 7th.

Is it tomorrow yet?

Congrats, I'm curious to see what she ends up looking like.

This new diesel is gonna have more problems then the 6.0s and 6.4s combined

Well I got it!
The big thing was a big split in the intake hose after patching that and holding my foot down for it to warm up it found its idel speed and was fine!

Now correct me if I am wrong but rough cold warm ups and than running smooth after warm up means the pvc valve?

After wash

Scrubbed the top down before and after

Clayed and waxed
