Subject:Shake Down for long camp trip
From:Jonce Fancher

Well the weekend camp trip this weekend was a sucess!!
drove up there mostly freeway. Did not see any leaking overheating or anything. was a little sluggish so i advanced the timing just a degree or 2 and it ran much
better. I did hear a clunk from the ass end around a turn. It did it once and i couldnt make it do it again. not sure what it was. It also happen once before but it
doesnt happen often enough to figure it out. every thing in the ass end is tight not sure where it is comming from. CVs are good clean and lubed up. all the
brakes and everything in the brake department is new. so im at a loss.

also when i went out to the garage i see there is a small drop of oil on the ground looks to be coming from the engine to trans connection. i will post a question
seperate for this question go get a few more responses. But all in all i have about 3 weeks to do a few little things to be ready to rock. Thanks Jonce
