Remember my big push for Icebreaker?  My "almost" ready for that event turned into another two months of working out details on the Jeep.  To be fair, I took a nice break from working on it during some of that period, but it's amazing how long the "little" stuff always takes.

First there were brake problems and then I fought some motor issues.  Ran through all the basic tune up stuff/checking sensors/etc., but the real issue turned out to be stale fuel.  Running better than it ever has currently.

First run?  Local 4th of July parade!

And finally, Yetta approves:



Next stop, back to Crozet where I hopefully won't end up w/ a "smiling" rear axle like last time.

Thanks!  It's been (and will continue to be) a long project.
