TX '90 ZR1
04-01-2018, 10:10 PM
Yes it was.
Had the good fortune to be able to be with my daughter (only one, thank Goodness!) and her family. Great son-in-law, three grand children and my extended family on my son-in-laws side. My oldest grand-child that is attending university in Germany was even able to be there.
Weather was very nice here in Texas, so I took the ZR-1. They are about 130 miles from me, mostly open road, and just an enjoyable drive. (Of course, I obeyed the speed limit.)
Second behind being with them, but a real pleasant discovery upon returning, was that I have NO fluids getting out from where they are not supposed to. I have been chasing small oil leaks and small coolant leaks for a couple of months. Also, have changed the clutch slave cylinder and hose as they appeared to show signs of starting to leak.
Only part I actually replaced in fixing the oil & coolant leaks was the PCV 90 degree fitting on the drivers side. Lip was folded and allowing a small amount of oil to pool beside the injector housing. Everything else was fixed by just tightening bolts & nuts. Some were a PIA to get to, but worth the effort.
My intent of this post is to say a big "THANK YOU" to everyone on this forum for answering my questions when they arised and also for the posts in the archives that assisted me in accomplishing this.
I hope all of you had a wonderful Easter!!
