Baby steps

Changed the oil. Lots of sticky sludge in the bottom of the oil canister, but I will address that at her second oil change. I figured that we need to get everything circulating first to flush it out. Unbeknownst to me, Joey had sprayed some WD-40 into the stuck cylinder #4 a few days ago, an old VW trick. So, when we turned the crankshaft today, cylinder #4 is now blowing air. Woo-hoo! I hosed down the grimiest road grime with PB Blaster—will see if that helps loosen it up and make it easier to scrape off. We are going to be way too busy to do much for the next couple of weeks.
