Damn the bad luck........................
So I flattened the cam in the 406,could happen to the best of us,so the machine shop tells me.I decided to let a pro engine builder have a look,just to see if I overlooked anything.Everythings perfect,except the main bearings.Polished the crank,and now only waiting on the cam to complete.
In the mean time,I'm driving the Olds to work,and loose power steering,alt,and the temp starts to climb quickly. Pull over and pop the hood to find the waterpump pulley is laying on the frame,all tangled up in the serpentine belt. Neat huh? So now I work 40 miles from home and I'm all dressed up for work. Had to borrow a car to get home,have the wife slep to the parts store for a new water pump,and the following day,replace the pump on the Olds. Where does this end?
