You'll get it freed up, keep working at it. After all is said and done, add a can of Seafoam (can get it at Napa) to your fuel tank. It helps to free up things that are stuck or a bit sticky.

Wait till GL has a massive sale, go preview all of them and bid accordingly. You'll get a nice one for less than $300.

Don't think twice about the miles, you have no way of telling if they're correct. Have someone that knows deuces go with you to give it the once over. In my opinion it's better to have one that's been driven. The ones that do a lot of sitting tend to have more issues. Good luck!!:-D

Your choice of penetrating oils should do just fine. Spray some in there, work it back and forth until the lever easily moves between 3:30 and 7:00. When you're done you should be able to push it towards the firewall and have it move back to the 7:00 position on it's own.

I'll take a look at the tube today Eric. What PSI should the coolant system operate at?

Sounds good Tom, hope to see you at the party!!:-P

Kip said it's heated, wood burning stove I believe.

Cool Special tool, check! Date for party, you'll be the first to know Chris!!

Thanks Kenny, I figured we'd be making that tool. Good thing my bro Oldgrunt is an excellent welder!! I'll contact Tom regarding the gaskets.

So Mr. Murphy has taken up residence at my house. I've had the HH off and on 6-8 times, Gimp and I replaced the IP and today I'm pretty sure the head gasket by the firewall blew. I took the truck around the block and quickly found out the HH was one tooth off. Lots of pinging under load and no...

The U2 footage was amazing, gave me chills!!![thumbzup][thumbzup][thumbzup]

Green Toys, nice mods!! I just took the FDC off my spare pump and I see what you're talking about. It's a very simple device. Can you post a pic or two of the inside of the FDC? I'd like to see how you attached the cable to the metal shaft.

Good info guys, I have some testing to do!!!:wink:

Nice story!! Did you air the tires down any?

Gotta pull the HH again. If I get that done I'll be there!!
