Job completed last night. No. It didn't take me this long to do it. In fact the actual time spent to R&R the six crush washers and six o'rings was probably about 1/2-1 hour. It wouldn't have taken that long if I hadn't created a goof. I reinstalled the lines and snugged the fittings prior to putting the valve retainer plates on. That didn't add much time but it made think I should have held off on the brews until after the job was completed.

Leaks are gone and it started immediately this morning. No more cranking to get the fuel to the combustion chambers!!!

This was certainly one of those jobs that make you wish you had a second one to do since it would take half the time next time . . .

Now on to the '84 300D's flex joint and support bearing project. That one I am not looking forward to.
