yea, its back on the road... sans heater core, radio....
Still has intermittant VSS problem (I dont have the facilities to change it myself, I refuse to f' with the exhaust system since it dont leak now), and an intermittant miss... I need to change the plugs/wires (cap and rotor are new).. hoping thats all that one is..
but for now, its gonna serve my purpose, getting me the 2.3 miles each way to work and back!

yea, a whopping 2.3 miles (2.5 if I take the long way), but its down from the 25 I have been driving, and that was down from the 60 each way I was doing before I moved to NW michigan (when I lived in metro detroit)

michigan ... you could ride a bike :) i guess a t 2.3 miles the car doesnt even have a chance to warm up.. so not having a heater core dont matter.

actually, my conti gets to operating temp just as I pull into the lot (according to the gauge).. of course, thats starting out at 60 degrees, not below freezing/zero as will happen this winter.
but ya, biking in to work will be something I do in the future, right now I couldn't pedal enough to get me to the end of the storage shed.. LOL
