When my son ran my M1008 out of fuel, I was dreading the start up. I bled the filter twice and it started just as I was going to check for more air. That has been on great running 6.2! I am going to grab a set of short wrenches to join the socket sets that are under the seat.

Sorry Gimpy, I kind of cheated on you... the Chevrolet powered one was much quicker, ran much faster, had more power and ran quieter.....

That old building is Coronado Heights. My father took us there as children and told us wild tales of how the slots in the wall were made to fight off the Indians when Coronado the Explorer came through with his soldiers. I always thought it was so cool, until I found out it was a 1930's WPA...
