I know somewhat how you feel, I had a pretty bad run a few weeks ago when the SVslow wouldn't run. It jumped timing once, then after I got it running again, the day after ECT sensor went out on it. It's running pretty good right now though, well except for a slipping clutch and a cracked exhaust manifold.
Oh well, I should have the '65 back together within the next couple of weeks and then I can start focusing on the SVO. Besides that, not too much has been going on, just school, labs, ER shifts, and trying to decide what I'm gonna do this summer.
