I appreciate that. I've already purchased the flex disk. I want the 247 gear too, bad enough to figure this stuff out.

I'm retired and have nothing to stress over except this car. That's why I'm going to the trouble of putting a diesel in the black 85 SE body.

I went to ridiculous lengths to get the wiring exactly as the FSM shows. I made the home run with the little purple wire from Connector 105 to the preglow box. I even tied the original wiring feeds into the fuse box with the screws on the underside of the exact fuse number shown in the paper card in the cover and FSM. I'm even buying new leather for the front seats and new vinyl for the door panels. Everything.

I love this stuff, it keeps me off the street corner and out of the bars.
