Message :as most of you know i recently bought a 1990 ttz which had been owned previously by two members of this site. (damonz and damonh) ...well here's my two week adventure.

:june 25th i took delivery

:and we dug into the task at hand.

:ok...that was easy enough...fun. wee. we cleaned up everything and made sure all was tight and a-ok. now came the fun part.

:we didnt run into anything major while putting everything back together. the tranny stab went well. the engine dropped in just fine. everything else went a-ok...until......we put water in. as we put water into the radiator we noticed that it just poored out of the bottom of the motor. my heart sank because i thought something MAJOR happened. when we checked we noticed that the two water plugs from draining the block were missing. oops.
:after some scrambling around we found the plugs that we need. (with the help of kyle@sgp) .. 1/4inch pipe thread plugs for reference.
:after all the little bugs worked out ...we started it. oops...had some gas issues that kyle@sgp helped with once again. ..after the fuel pressure issue was solved ..bam..fired right up and idle'd at 1500rpm with no miss, no major noise, nothing...surprised.
:so after we take it off the jack stands and take her for a spin to the gas station. i was surprised at how well it ran. no problems at all. nothing. so we head back to the house and then get it ready to take home.
