11 March 2017 - The Merc - ToDo

ToDo:
  • change oil and filter
  • change air filter
  • check timing(static and running
  • check rocker clearnance of each valve cover(oil breather insert maybe too close to rockers)
  •  try to further isolate any vacuum leaks( brake booster, vacuume modulator...)


While installing the air filter assembly, noticed that the lower assemlby did not completely rest on the carb air horn.  The choke lever was in the way...the swivel was up so the lower air filter assembly did not seat correctly....now it does....

Changed the engine oil and filter and pressurized the oil system.

Checked the suspension to make sure everything was properly greased.

Re-routed the spark plug wires...also tried to create custom wires(that did not go well - and wasted alot of time today)
