    Just completed our first timing belt service and water pump replacement! Still need to finish bleeding air from cooling system but weather is not cooperating! Thanks Dave for the tips. Thanks to all FChat members posting advice on doing this task. One change I'll make next time is to have the A/C system purged so the compressor can be removed. As in a Christmas Story, there is a tapestry of obscenities hanging over lake Michigan! Maybe you heard this! Working around the compressor is possible but VERY difficult. It's time to watch the game and enjoy a few cold ones :D

    Great! Knew you could do it!
    Now you both need to take it on a real drive. Say, FCA Nationals 2008 in Toronto, Canada next July? 525 miles each way.
    Piece of cake...

    That one I may just make, since it's near my old hometown of Islington; a burb of Toronto.

    Everytime I put a screw back into the 308 where it belonged I feel like Enzo.
