Car stuff...
I am feeling a little better but my energy level is crap! If you looked on a meter, I'd be in the red near the bottom. Last night at work almost killed me and I didn't even do that much. ;_; Please god make the next trimester better.
Anyways, when Mike and I got home from work we went and ate breakfast at IHOP. I only ate half of it and brought the rest home so that I could eat it at work. When we got home Mike and I headed out to the garage to start working on the 240 again. We actually made a huge amount of progress on it. We took the hood off and put it up against the wall for safe-keeping and started taking out some of the easily removable internals. We also labeled things so that we know how to put the engine back together when we are done.
We took out the air filter and tubing, MAF is gone, battery is removed, ran the engine till it died so we could get the fluids out of it, took out misc other things, and I had fun ripping apart a rusty metal pan with a wrench. That thing is so fubar'd. After that I ran out of energy and had to lay down. At some point Mike went to sleep as well and woke up 3 hours later because he couldn't sleep. He told me later that he did some more work on the car so I have to pop into the garage before I leave so that I can see it. Evidently whatever he took out has put a huge gap of space in the engine bay. Pretty exciting.
I hope I can survive work tonight. I still feel like crap. XD
