I'm keeping an eye on the weather.. so far it's not looking too great. We might have to postpone this. I'll make a decision around Thursday based on the forecast.

Yep sounds good. Was wondering if this might be the case after looking at the forecast. Seeing a lightning bolt on Saturday wasn’t what I was expecting or hoping for

Darn, hopefully the forecast doesn't hold true. Considering it is still five days off the forecast is still questionable itself, although it is unlikely to be very warm.

Looks easy....

Seriously, I would not recommend doing this at tech day. Your car has to be couple of hours cold to start this procedure.
I would guess this work will take about 4.5-6 hrs to complete with all the right tools and an FSM.

Junky your thoughts?

Wouldn’t even think of stepping into that kind of project on a tech day. A valve adjust sure, maybe.

Someone bring some dry ice with them, and we'll freeze the engine for the valve adjust.
