Got to visit the car yesterday… Six of the 8 cylinders now are working and have at least 120 pounds of pressure. He’s going to work on the last two for the rest of the weekend. We’re all more hopeful and relieved! Dad came along to answer questions about the various parts he had with the car. As the engine gets ready to run properly, some of the things next on the list are the brakes and boosters, leaky water and fuel pumps, check the radiator, and replace all hoses. Dad had rebuilt the brake master cylinder, but that was 20 years ago, and it never got put back on.
