steps back... huh

 Well, i went to pick up the violet wbx bug, but the battery was totally dead. so no improvement for that, i took the battery with me, but the defa charger was so clever that it didn't want to charge the battery... Daaaaamn! ok, have to get a old style charger to charge it, hope to get one. and it needs cooling fluid also, wbx marks it spot... sadly. and it should be inspected too, next month.

ok, the panel van was waiting for better times... maybe it will get some movement next time, at least have to start it up and let it run ...have to think when to get it inspected too...

and the dodge needs some new/rebuildt brake calipers. i think it has e-body brakes. pretty heavy after all the brembo brakes... :-) but endless work with these...

Dodge D100 "ex-town panel"

 

i wanted to go to the Lahnajärvi cruising with the dodge, 
so i would see what needs to be taken care of, to get this pickup to the inspection.
the carburetor is fine now, and the engine runs smoothly.
when i started the trip from somero to saukkola...
the brake pedal went down. there's some brake power but not much.
have to check for leaks, and take care of bleeding as well.
the engine temp meter didn't work... and the engine started to make noises...
well i got safely to our cottage, but there's something to work out.
