OK small update : replaced the tranny cooler line and in the process i managed to break the vac line coming off of the front valve cover got it fixed with some rubber hose, then i put everything back together and stated her up to check for vacuum leaks and what do i see a green stream coming from behind the electric fan tear it all back apart and fing out i must have rubbed my fan against the radiator so dad comes over an solders it and tries to blow us up in the process then she sits in the garage for two weeks till he can get a new torch the we get it so i put it back together and my buddy comes over to get away from his wife and decided while he is putting the battery in to touch the positive battery terminal and the tie down bolt. smoke is rolling out till i know the wrench out into the grass and now it wont shift cuz he burned off a ground braiding . got it fixed and drove her today!!! NO MORE STUPID **** PLEASE!!!
