In The Garage: June 2009
http://whatsinthegarage.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 29, 2009. I don't know the rpm you rev. Third running event. Startup took a little effort, but it's been about a week since last startup. Some time with the fuel pump and pedal pumping helped out. Started it up, and let it run up to temp. Some observations:. The idle continues to climb at idle - starts at 1.5k and climbs north of 3k rpm. I don't know what this means. We have oil pressure. 20psi or so? Still a little smoky beneath the exhaust valve covers. From the overwhelming smell of.

In The Garage: Since September? Really?
http://whatsinthegarage.blogspot.com/2010/04/since-september-really.html
Friday, April 16, 2010. I just sorta realized that nobody had posted any sort of update since early September of '09. That means nearly 8 months. To be fair, I think we've only had one working session on the Scorpions since then, and it wasn't horribly productive. So it's not like people are missing out on anything. if anyone reads this that is. April 17, 2010 at 5:00 PM. May 27, 2010 at 8:33 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). EBaycom - Lancia Scorpion.

In The Garage: Work Resumes, Briefly
http://whatsinthegarage.blogspot.com/2009/09/work-resumes-briefly.html
Sunday, September 6, 2009. Work Resumes, Briefly. So after what seems like ages, Ange and I drove out to Boiling Springs early Saturday morning to visit with Derrick and Sarah and get a little Lancia labor under our belts. The main focus of our efforts was to get the pedal box rebuild completed and then reinstalled. Shiny New Distraction Step: I purchased some nice Magnecor plug wires from Jon at Midwest 124. The rest of the plug wire install went fairly well. The only other SNAFU was that, in additi...

In The Garage: We Break the Brakes
http://whatsinthegarage.blogspot.com/2009/08/we-break-brakes.html
Tuesday, August 4, 2009. We Break the Brakes. A weekend or so ago, Ange and I took a trip out to Carlisle to visit with Derrick and Sarah and to spend some time with our Lancia brood. Our aim was to replace the brake master cylinder in order to get some actual hydraulic pressure into the system. As it was, the master cylinder was completely blown. The Scorpion shop manual seems to indicate that you must remove the steering rack in conjunction with the pedal box. So. that's what we did. Oh, there are also...

In The Garage: Some action over the winter
http://whatsinthegarage.blogspot.com/2011/04/some-action-over-winter.html
Monday, April 4, 2011. Some action over the winter. As we are all excited for the spring and warmer weather, I thought I would share some activities from this winter before we get overwhelmed with our Scuderia Alfa, Lancia, and Maserati. Here are some pics of my 2008 Saab 9-3 aero sport-combi, I think I should make a goal of being able to hit 60mph before you can finish saying the name of the car :-).
