IT'S DEAD! AGAIN. I WAS LETTING IT WARM UP IN THE DRIVEWAY FOR A FEW GOT ALL CRAZY BUSY AND SIDETRACKED HOPPED IN THE SHOWER CAME BACK OUTSIDE AND THE RADIATOR HOSE BLEW ABOUT 7 INCHES LONG AND THE CAR WAS OFF IN THE ON POS.

RIP AND F*U(<!

I'm hoping that maybe I got lucky and the Dist or something electrical got sprayed and killed the motor it was the top hose and it blew up towards the engine. So there is still some fluid in the radiator because the bottom hose is still intact. I'm going to find out today after work.

wait...the motor blew cuz it was idling for long time?

It just wasn't starting. It's all good now it wouldn't start cuz the motor was freaking soaked with anti freeze I guess. I replaced the hose and put more fluid in it and it started.

Yeah me to, I have a few bugs I'm still working out with the coil and distributor being different years and not getting along. So I'm buying the 94 coil so that my wire will work with the Dist.
