The subject says it all: I started my tiico last night! It started just fine and idles just fine. I haven't taken the van down off jackstands yet to take it for a spin. I still need to bleed the cooling system, the power steering system, and make sure the clutch is still working. I also added a/c to the van as I did the conversion and I have to wire up my new radiator fan before I can take the van for any serious drive. Still, it's very close now! Damian |
