When I got the old hoses off, there were score marks on the stubs. Looks like they had been changed before. But, I don't know when.Quote:

I think the leaking oil caused the hose to deteriorate. I also did the timing bump while I was in the neighborhood.
My arms are scratched up like I have been sorting wildcats. ::Censor:: I had much rather work on my 1948 Ferguson, but I had much rather drive the Miata.
My hat is off the miatamoto. :clap: Half hour. He's the man.
Congrats! Sounds lik you are back in business!
Sounds good, did you notice anything with the timing bump?
Not yet. The car is still in the shop. I started it and let it warm up, no leaks I can see. But, no road test until tomorrow.Quote:
