Day 2 of 914 Project: Car Idles & 'Cleaned' Undercarriage
More pictures will be posted later.

Used engine cleaner to remove some of the oil from the underside of the car. Now I can move around the car with out getting 'as' filthy.
Cleaned the air filter out which had a tremendous layer of oily build up. Car wouldn't idle yesterday but did after I re-assembled the air cleaner. Found a Wick air cleaner at All Parts Auto on Meridian and Branham.
Installed new negative longer battery cable, positive and negative terminals. Used some baking soda to clean out the battery support area.
Torqued the oil strainer plug to just under 10ft/lbs. Car still leaking oil but at least it doesn't appear to be the oil plugs or the oil filter. Maybe it's the oil cooler seals??? Will find a diagram and hopefully some pictures of the locations to see if that might be the area of the leak.
