Tip 1: 5/8" NF bolt = fitting saver for those tough ones so the brass fitting doesn't smash. Tip 2: Tip: add a section of rubber hose here for off-road flex. The return line Bung leaks. Grind out the solder and weld, or re-solder ? Not much of a solderer.

‘70 fuel gauge is sticky and only indicates 1/4 tank (empty) to almost full. Ohmed the sensor. 25ohm at bottom, up to 40 at 1/4 tank, back down to 30 then gradually up to 60ohm. Reckon I need to replace sender and gauge

Guys, I gotta do head gaskets. Blown between cylinders. Full sets are getting rare and $. I already have an exh gasket and gasket material to make intake, etc. Should I spring for the whole set or just the HG themselves? Maybe if the sets are getting rare I should get it for just in case... I'm...

Thanks Rusty. I'll shoot it with temp gun next time. I know the others were comfortably warm, but the rear I could only touch for a couple seconds. Didn't smell hot or anything though so probably not real hot.

Rear axle diff gets hot to touch on long trips. Thoughts?

I'm on here rummaging around trying to find a link I posted with good info, exploded views etc. for the injection pumps. I saw a post by Jeepsinker elsewhere about the smoke cam adjustment and want to see the cutaway/exploded view. Now where did I post that...?

Puttin' the deuce to work smoothing the yard, fun in the desert, new flag mount.

Took the truck out to the country for a school project photo shoot the other evening.
