    Pretty easy so far.

    We put a clutch master cylinder in the RX-7 yesterday. New MC immediately leaked at the banjo connection where the hard line connects. Seemed like the union bolt was not machined particularly well. Perhaps that was leading to the upper copper washer to not sealing well. I don't know.

    We ended up removing the whole banjo connection from the old MC and putting it on the new one. It had never leaked in nearly 30 years. It continues to not leak. Caulk one up to qualify old OEM stuff. Either way....clutch issue fixed.

    Went to a wedding for a dear friend last night. Gorgeous fall evening for an outdoor ceremony. The reception was in a beautiful 150 year old brick barn. Had a wonderful time. It was nice to get out for once. Covid has put a wrench in such things as of late. Good food, good music, good people, good times

    So people are suppose to pick up machines and they haven’t. I’ll give them till the end of next week and then they will find different owners.
    I have a time schedule…..

    If I ever say something stupid like this again someone's gonna have the smack me. 7pm last night that exact one went out... This was all on top of replacing a 1,000lb plus power roller when I went in at 11am... :bananadead:

    Ooof it's a little bit nippy out there! Temps in the high 50's but the wind is making it miserable. Someone was taking a look at the Talon today so I needed to do a quick tire air up and throw a couple bucks gas in it; just about froze myself. :laugh:

    We'll have to see how the potential buyer goes. His father took a look at it for his son who is in Montana. The father completely understood being a 26 year old car and appreciated the work I've done to it so far. Probably will go nowhere, but at least one person has looked at in person now :rofl:

    Got a coat of wax on her for the fall/winter. I'll hit the frame in another month or so.
