yes, it is still a week away... but its been raining alot.
I'll check the weather as it gets closer.... it would have to be no rain form the day I leave to the day I come back...
Still tho, the car needs work, and I haven't been doing anything to it, also right now I am not very inclined to do anything with it since I am probably not going to be taking it.

So I haven't drove the Caddy in about 2 weeks, and decided to take it to the movies tonight... then look for a place to eat afterword(failed....Georgia closes at midnight)
Anyway, I really missed driving the car.... kinda makes me want to drive it to FL....
I dunno if I did decide to drive it to FL I need to do 3 things:
1) fix AC.... first put all the new components in, then get it charged up
2) basic tune up with spark plugs, wires, cap & rotor, fuel filter maybe (I remember then being a pain on the Q-jet)
3) if I can't get the speedo fixed by then, then atleast wire the speed sensor to a switch so I can make the torque converter lock up. Still tho, I want the speedo to work cause then cruise control will work.
Still, I dunno... *IF* I did make it, the car woudln't be pretty as I haven't done anything to fix it up in a while, still missig the rear trim stuff (can't get it to stay on with the clips) it is still loud.... but it would be fun to drive.
I will definitely be there. BTW, does anybody around here have a contact at a dealership (or have access to a Tech 2) who could do a crank variance learn for me (for a few $)? With some luck, I'll be getting a reprogrammed PCM from AJxtcman (see the Northstar Tuning thread), and I'll need to have that done in order to use it.
We've been getting some pretty heavy late afternoon storms but I think I am hearing that will be changing to the reverse summer time pattern, meaning early storms.
That morning I'm taking my baby to Ed Morse to have the a/c checked/fixed, it's not really cooling as it should.
ill be at the meet , but i cant get acess to the tech 2 for the meet ....but uh talk at me at the meet and we shall work something out ...
ill be there , the caddy is staying home ...I have a PGR ride that morning till 2 , a young solider lost his life in alabama on a motorcycle ...he will be laid to rest in plant city ....so depending on what shape im in afterwards i might buzz stirght tot he meet or go to moms house and get cleaned up a little ...
Thats the first time I ever heard you refer to your car as "the Caddy" and not Gladys..... sheesh man, what is happening to ya?!?
Too bad tho, I was hoping to see her there!
Well, its 2:30AM, I got off work 3 hours ago, time to go work on the Caddy, still not sure if I am gonna take it or not, gotta put the new A/C stuff in, then get it recharged sometime tomorrow, maybe ni FL, I dunno.... got cap, rotor, plugs and wires to throw on and I really want to wire up the torque converter switch to be operated by a button.
