It's alive.... Third time was the charm, It took three runs with fully charged batteries and getting working a long time bleeding air yesterday, but this morning I showed up with fully charged batteries, started pumping the primer and the presure went up and I hit the starter and it gurgeled...

When you hit the starter on the 813 or 818 does the RPM needle move at all?

Check, fuel in tank but I'll add a few more gallons. I did not remove the fuel filter, what would I look for? When I got the truck the emergency stop had been thrown. It was at its stop pointing toward the firewall, Imoved it to the stop facing the bumper. Was that too far? Should I have gone...

Tires looked new or newly installed, the spare is unused and still has the mold threads stick out of the top of the tread. The wheel lugs and a lot of bolts on the truck looked new (still had a shine). Looking at the truck it almost seemed like it went to some auto school were the students go...

Well I recieved my PIF invoice and arranged for a tuesday pickup. Since the wife doesn't share my love of "junk" I left her at home and went alone, because of this and the legal and logistical issues I hired a local trucking company to haul it from Barstow. I got to Barstow at 10:00 am and...
