I feel really silly asking this, but I’d rather ask a silly question than make a huge mistake. I’m a new owner and still learning; I have a 1985 CUCV and I realized I left the floodlight on after it was parked. I haven’t tried to start it yet, but if I do I want to ask if there’s a particular...

Thank you for all of your input. Another mechanic is looking at it today. One discussion has been head gaskets. We will have to see about all of that. In the end more investigating needs to be done. I’ll update again. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ha! Ha! I’m not mechanically inclined, but I’m enjoying learning about the CUCV! It’s been real fun!!
