Well, looks like something else is going to divert some energy away from the car this week.
Forecast says the winds are going to pick up drastically this coming weekend. Like up to 60 mph. So, going to have to anchor the solarium more once again. It's not up to those kinds of winds yet. Have to anchor a few keys sections more strongly.
There's also a 20 degree temperature drop coming in which seems like it's here to stay for the winter. If that's the case, by January we will probably see temps below 0.
The temperatures I can handle. The people driving in it, not so much. Makes me really glad to be working at home.
One problem is the car. Gaskets won't set properly in temperatures that low. Means I need to get a couple more tarps to place over the car and run the heater well in advance when setting the gaskets. Low temps will also affect proper torque readings but using tarps and the heater will help with that as well.
If I can set the tarps to block wind from under the car, it will make it less uncomfortable to do work on the ground, like the exhaust and the starter.
What does suck is that I still haven't gotten the ceiling insulated. Keep trying and things keep happening which block my time and finances from getting it done.
