no bites

I listed the 944 and the 93 cadillac on craigslist and got zero responses.

Here's a link to a company who rebuilds cadillac northstar engines. http://www.ae-engines.com/cadillac46northstar.html

Oil drips

I parked the 95 eldo in the garage over a long weekend to see if it leaked. It does but just a bit. There were three small drips of oil under the car after it was parked for 4.5 days.

I'm traveling a lot without cars last weekend and next, so there won't be much content here...

New Car for Me!

My Dad bought me a 1995 Eldorado Touring Coupe. it has 98000 miles on it (that's about 100k less than my '93)

It's super-clean, and has a moon roof!

No Power

When I drove down the street this morning, the Cadillac didn't want to come out of first gear. I turned around and parked it in the driveway, and drove the 944 into work. I hope this has something to do with a vacuum leak repalted to the new dash pot and NOT a failed transmission.

I keep draining the battery

On the way to work, there is a tunnel I turn my lights on through the tunnel, and I keep draining the battery after I get to work because I forget to shut them off. There is no dummy bell to let you know they are still on (or at least if there's supposed to be one, it doesn't work). I finally put the jumper cables in the car so the next time this happens I don't have to wait an hour for Jim to come back to Berkeley from home to give me a charge.

New Dash Pot

My Dad went and worked on my car this weekend while I was on a road trip. He installed a new Dash Pot, but I need to install a t-fitting to the vacuum hoses.
