Been having problems with the new injectors weeping sending the fumes into the cabin. I thought the problem had fixed itself but it did it again this morning quite badly so as I was driving along I made a plan to buy some new O rings and fit them over the weekend. Wifey says to me "Do you think the smell is coming from the lawn mower you have in the back??" Yup.

Is that hard to do? (Getting the seats and carpet out?)

The guy i bought mine from had a big dog in there, and used to smoke in there, so it needs some work.

Finally figured out how to "tighten the steering box". Amazing difference to the feel. I thought the 4" wide deadspot was just something I'd have to accept.
Was gonna replace 3 tie rod ends and a drag link since they have a bit of rotational play - don't need to now! Might just do the pitman arm end on the drglink as it clicks a bit.
Easy job - took some pics will put up a quick guide if the search doesn't yield one again.
I have a FSM but having a guide to do everything on a bench isn't always useful.
