Literally, I sold off the troubled black VE and the next week my blue VE started stalling. Talk about cursed man.
Thankfully I did figure out why the blue one was stalling. It was the freaking coolant temp sensor connector. It was all corroded up with the green crap. I cut it off and soldered on a clean/good/spare connector and problem cured. It's amazing the havoc coolant temp sensor problems can wreak on a VE.
The only reason I haven't driven it since then is because I mainly just parked it in the garage for the summer - no tint on the car, and also didn't want the Dip to be exposed to sun all summer. So I parked it in the garage for what I thought would just be a month or two.
BUT - then my brother needed my lift for his turbo V8 S2K project. So he brought his S2K over "for a few days" and I put my blue VE in his garage. Well a "few days" now has been months with his S2K occupying my garage
The S2K should be running in a few days though, so hopefully by the end of the month I can get my car back in the garage and turbo and whatnot back on.

this new year id really like to escape from sink-attle WA.before the big thang happens and resets their little expensive universe
I swear this is volcanic ash/lava material,its got a vent tube on 1 side,a pumice/coral side with black to grey to tan coloration,and 2 flat grey porous sides that look like a clean break from a flow-cool-re push of more flow,my shovel aint shaped like that,this was found after filling back in a cat grave i dug for a friend on their property(its legal here)
at that time i was mineral-gem-precious metal blind and illiterate,only as an after thought while having a smoke by the grave and seeing bits glisten on the mixed dirt,did i start looking at all the tiny stone embeded clay chunks and reading up on rock/mineral/metal indicators
raw gems are hard to identify,no yellow metal yet but I unknowingly missed a chance to dig that extra foot or two to see if the lunkers are down there,
so far i either got silicates or maybe olivine-(im not a home or land owner so its not priority to clean and test samples or pay for analysis or certifacation BUT the real question is why would lava/ash be 2-3 feet deep in lake city seattle(victory heights)and what are these tiny shiney gems?,they aint broken indian bottles,lol theywouldnt do that on their sacred springs-creeks-valleys by the great lake wa.lands
