Yeah, that's pretty accurate.  I'm trying to avoid unnecessary work
so I can get this thing back on the road ASAP.  It doesn't look like
I'll be driving it to Colorado on the 22nd like I'd hoped, though.
Oh well, at least I'll have a much more reliable engine when I'm done
with it.  I'm also learning a heck of a lot.  Maybe _next_ year I'll
get to tow with it...

Per Jay's (?) suggestion, I'll drop by B&N tonight & see if I can
find a book on rebuilding AMC V8's.  Maybe that'll reduce the number
of theory questions I send you guys.

If it's entertainment you're looking for, you should see the sunburn
I got while working under the Wag yesterday.  Only the lower half of
my right leg got burned -- that was the only part of me that wasn't
underneath the Jeep for three hours.  (Yes, it's in the garage, but
I backed it in, so now both the Jeep & the garage door face south.)
