... So I don't really know what to believe.

So far these are the main issues I'm still having. Maybe someone can help me out.

-Clutch is still doing something wierd.
It sat for 2 days(after driving it down the road), and when I went out to start it up, the pedal pressure was low again. I checked the fluid, and it was still full- PIC. However, I just pumped it for a while(maybe 30 pumps), and it built up pressure again, and it was fine.

-I'm thinking maybe the clutch pedal safety switch is going out.
I tried to start it up after driving it around the property(lots of acres), but it took a good 10 tries to get a good 'connection'. This happened twice.

-The main powersteering line is dribbling PS fluid.
It looks as-if someone took a safety pin and poked it a couple times. There is a couple tiny pin-holes that leak(spray when wheel is turned hard/pressure in the lines), right next to the end-fitting that goes into the PS pump on the motor. I'm gonna try some JB weld for now.


If I can't get a title, I'll gut it out.
Pull out the interior, AC/Heat components, Powersteering components(good idea?), etc...
