Biohazard

I actually have been working on this thing. Here's some proof...

Okay so it was time to get the blower and blower motor back into the housing but, naturally, it was more involved than just screwing the darn thing into place.

The round mounting trim that houses the motor had gotten a fair amount of overspray from when the car got its most recent coat of R6 so the two metal parts got fine sanded and then sprayed with Rustoleum Engine black. I baked the pieces like I did the drip pan.

The rubber seal was old and dirty so I blew the dust off of a product I brought back from Germany called "Gummi Pflege" which translates to rubber care. This stuff restores the flex and oily-ness to rubber parts and thats exactly what it did for the seal. Even the filth on the seal practically fell off as I rubbed the stuff into it.

I used a scrubby pad to buff the overspray off the rubber motor isolators.

The motor is supposed to be black...got it...but I chose to just steel wool mine and make it shine.
