My activities for the month of stardate 20666 are/is

[Smucky]

For this month, must get the tractor going.

Left off with

I think I will get back out there Thursday to continue on working.

I guess first order of things,
Clean up head bolts, then get it torqued
Drop in push rods
Then bolt on rock arm assembly
Then turn over engine again with starter with the injectors still out. Engine will be "fully" assembled so should build oil pressure on the gauge.
Then drop oil pan again and pull some bearings to see if any crap has contaminated them.
If NO, then move on to getting all the bottom end torqued, then install oil pan "for real"
Then adjust valve gaps.
Install injectors.
Install fuel lines, turn engine over some more to prime fuel lines before fully tightening.
Then see if it will fire up. Will leave intake and exhaust manifolds off for maximum effect.
Service book says after first start up and warm up to re-torque head bolts again and check valve gaps while hot.

So last I did was

Clean up head bolts, then get it torqued
Drop in push rods

So for tomorrow, got to do the rest
