A Great Run Feels So Good!

Yesterday I drove the second deuce in a Peanut Festival parade in a small town north of here. Carried a number of folks in the rear, covered with political signs so no pics.

Probably no more than a forty mile run there and back, including the parade.

Located the source of some rattles, will take those out this next couple of weeks, temp normal and best of all no milk shake oil.

I have posted a couple of threads on my difficulties finding the source of AF getting into the oil. It turned out to be a cracked head in one of the intake ports above the valve. A new head from TNJ Murray cured the problem, the short version.

After weeks of frustration, I got it back on the road and checking the oil now is just to see if it is at an acceptable level. With Fall here, the temps have dropped from the 105 range making driving enjoyable again. Great fun!

Glad you got it fixed. I have to agree, cooler is better, but winter is coming... I hope my heater can keep up with what Minnesota has to offer!

Great feeling on several points, enjoying a great run, fixing a worrysome problem, and just plain being able to pinpoint some rattles !

Sounds like a great start on the never ending "to do" list !

I just got back from a 20 mile run. Here in Central Florida the temps got down to low 50's over night, our first taste of fall...Great trip, great run, all is well.
