Got some help from my little mechanics this week.

Sure! I've been wanting to learn how to spray and we can practice on yours!!! ;) Might want to wait 'til it get a bit warmer though.

We can practice all you want on that thing its multi color right now as I try to sneak alittle work here and there when the apartment complex staff isn't looking !

carpet looks awesome! Did you just go over that once?

Sorta once. Did some pretreating with the Folex, scrubbed them a bit, then used the wet-vac (sometimes making a couple passes).

They still need some love before I put them back in.
 
very nice looks good we just got a carpet cleaner for the house so I think I'm gonna try it out on the inside of my truck as well. How long did you let the Folex sit before you started cleaning? Hope mine comes out half that good
 
Haven't had a lot of time to work on the 60 lately (the 100 was getting all the attention before a week long Canyonlands trip).

In the last few days, I've torn down the engine a bit to replace the before mentioned gasket issue and for some general cleaning.

Now I'm gathering the needed info to get my PCM flashed. After that, hope to get her completely reassembled and back on the road sometime this summer.
