    did my upper and lower gaskets yesterday. had a few things to do this morning ( alt and belt, oil change, coolant flush, couple vac lines) but im very happy as far as i can tell everything is good. no leaks or anything as of right now that i can tell. started twistin the rachet yesterday at about 830 and was outside until about 7pm with a keychain led light in my mouth. now ive never done anything more than change an altanator and brake jobs n such. 20 years old with no profetional mechanical training or anything like that im just mech inclined i guess. but it wouldnt have happend without yall on here i love gpf. but anyway took like 5 hours to break down to the old gaskets. man they were beat but it looked as if it was already done. cleaned up the injectors nice. the wip is runnin so much better. i think there was deffinitly some kind of power loss somewhere probly just cleanin the injectors. im veryy proud of myself for a job well done. just thought id share my story and thank all you guys who have helped me out along the way.


    ohh and if anyone noticed, im working on my puntuation
