So a lot has happened this summer, just not a lot to the blazer. After I brought the jeep home I put it up for sale thinking it would take all summer to sell. The 2nd person to show up gave me what I wanted, so SHE GONE! Then we listed the house 4th of july weekend, multiple offers immediately, so waiting for closing. Found another house with double the sqft but smaller garage
, just waiting to close. I guess I need to learn to make sacrifices when it comes to having 4 kids, hopefully they end up being a good shop crew for me one day.
Anyway with all my spare time I managed to get the blazer back together and somewhat road ready. At least I thought so til a trans line blew and destroyed the alternator and soaked every inch under the hood. So now it has a new alternator, voltage regulator, and trans lines. All that led to fix the pulsing in the electrical that kept blowing stereo fuses, while fixing the trans lines I noticed the missing body ground. Happy to say I have tunes again, so I test wired an old amp and some 10's. After we move and settle in, and fix a few other problems I'd like to make some side panels to house some speakers.
As for now I need to remove the old electric fuel pump that seems like it'd cause problems. I have a mechanical pump, for some reason the previous owner left a dead electric pump inline. Seems like the mechanical pump would have to work to hard to pull fuel through. Hopefully I'll get another test run in soon, the Hines Park cruise is Sunday and one of the best imo.
