Nothing but D2 here, cept in my Kubota tractor then I cut it 50/50 with K1 in the winter.

Good thing I keep that project truck/hood in the garage! Some day I'll get it done and post some pic's, It's only been about 18 years no sense in rushing it. Motermayhem, if by chance cucvus doesn't have what you need (slim chance) let me know I've got a few pieces and parts myself

"#3 cylinder was not sealing on the intake valve " that could be your problem, it's sucking engine oil and running (surge) on that. Just my .02

A replacement plug is available at some auto part stores, it a pretty common GM problem. It comes with a couple inches of wire and just butt splice in place.

No resistor, that would cause the GP to burn out.

The surge sounds like you have a air leak in the fuel system, the knock could be the engine swallowed a glow plug. That's all I can come up with.

I just found this thread, looking good! I know it's a bit late for your truck, but for large one piece aluminum roofing try checking with big truck body shops. Many times we had 53'tralers come in with 10 or 20 feet of roof damaged and we'd replace the whole roof and save the old roof panel for...

You never said what drive shafts your planning on using, Either one of the fronts might fight but your going to have to change a yoke or use a conversion joint. I would use the truck rear shaft and have the front yoke changed and the shaft shortened, it's cheaper to shorten than to lengthen plus...

All I've ever used are the Wellmans for years in 4 different trucks, I've had some swell a bit but no biggie getting them out. I've thought about trying the 60g but never got around to it.

Never heard of that before! It wouldn't work with todays 'safe' non flammable brake cleaner, my how time have changed. BTW are you referring to the old Detroit 2 stroke?

Back when I had a body shop I hated those guy's, but soon found that I could write up a job and then sub it to them and make money for nothing! If the dent removal wasn't perfect than they didn't get paid that's the guaranty.

A rag with a bit of lacquer thinner on will probably was of the printing on the PEX

That really doesn't look bad, I never would've thought that would look that way.

Nothing and everything! I driver right by you a couple times a year on my way down to my company terminal, there down in New Kingstown exit 57. Next time I'll blow the horn! :)

U tube is your friend, It works the same as any small block Chevy

I'd love to come down and root around in your barn, I bet I could find a LOT of cool old stuff!

My son used to laugh and make fun of my real oil cans, you know the kind with a spout and trigger pump or flex bottom until he learned some things work better with real oil instead WD40 crap.

I had the same issue and I couldn't save the socket so I simply replaced the socket with a soft plastic one that takes a 193 "peanut" bulb, just a few seconds on the bench grinder to remove the flap and made it a push fit. Sockets are available at any auto store or just cut one off some unused...

Love that bed! very cool.

I take it you have to move it to test it? J/K That's good to know cause my gauge has been sitting at about 1/4. Thanks for the info!
