Okay.
I'm preparing for my first road trip in an '86 PT40.
We've fixed every little nuance from lights to water filters in the "house", and
the overall engine fluids stuff has been checked.
There are a couple things I need to know how to do:
* I have some crud in my hot water heater which shows up after draining and
refills. I'm still not exactly sure where the water heater IS, let alone where a
drain valve for it is.
* I know that I should bleed my fuel filter of sediment/water and the air
chambers at the four corners ... how and when should I do the latter ?
* What else should be "DOH" checks that I do other than tire pressure before I
roll out ?
I know that the thing that always gets you is the one thing you didn't check.
What short list would those things be ?
