410 Compression Test and tuning.
Got sidelined trying to fit new trans lines.
The center link and swaybar had to come off to remove the old ones. I was concerned about a pinch from the last engine install, upon inspection I found the pinch wasn't too bad, but there was a blockage of something in one line.
The good news- I already had a new set from Inline Tube.
The bad news- they won't fit!
The passenger side line is close enough I could probably tweak it and make it work...the driver's side is a no go. The end fittings are not even close to the right plane. One end has the bend around the sway bar and the trans end is 45° off.
At $75 cost and shipping, I am not twisting or rebending. They are getting these back, hopefully they will do me right , since thier website says the customer pays shipping on returns and I already paid over $30 shipping a $45 part.
Ordering was a pain because neither Inline or Fine Lines has a website thats functional enough to use on a smartphone. Time to get some 21st century IT, boys!
I'll let you all know how they play it. Either way I just lost a week or two of springtime.
