10 days to rehab car- lengthy question
All-
I live in DC, my father lives in GA- late August I'll be going home to claim my car. This car will need some work, the usual kind of work that a car like that needs after about 150k. I am having some parts shipped down there before I go. I really need to bust ass on it while I'm there; I have to drive it 800 some odd miles back to DC where it will be my highway car from here on out. I don't usually have need to drive in town, I use my bike. Here's what I want to do while I'm there: 1. Valve adj 2. Trans service 3. Diesel purge 4. Throttle linkage adj 5. Glow plug check 6. Turbo check w/ adj if necessary 7. ALDA adj 9. idler arm rebuild, steering shock replacement 10. vacuum system check and service 11. timing chain check 12. brake bleed 13. oil change 14. sunroof repair 15. antenna repair 16. driver's seat repair 17. odo repair 18. front end alignment 19. injector pressure test Can all of this be done in nine days or so? I have my father to help out, but we kinda do things a little meticulously. Also, I am buying all parts from **************.com. Is this wise? I figured I'd get them all from the same place for convenience sake. Take a look at the list.
