Certainly not raggin on ya, it runs and thats a BIG first step. Had to disassemble then reassemble then disassemble and finally just replace the injection pump on mine as it had been sitting a long time much like yours. They sound a bit different and IMO better than the ldt 465's, the side pipe certainly doesn't hurt either :)

So if you don't have time to capitolize and use sentences , what makes you think any body has time to read your post 6 times to try and understand it . Then take more time to answer your question .
You should probably take extra care to use correct spelling when you're criticizing someone else's grammar.

A capitol is a place where government meets. Capitals are upper-case letters. Or possibly types of warships depending on how many world wars you lived through. Capital might also be used to refer to wealth applied toward growing more wealth.

I can answer. ROEOD is on the road road a lot driving a tractor trailer for a living so not much done other than what we did to the brakes and axle seals.
The truck is sitting at my place. We are trying to get the turn signals to work and having a time dealing with the old wiring.

ok so i am doing some work to keep it running drive it a bit so it will not rot. i am now getting air in the fuel lines now. it comes down the return line at least i think it is the return. so far i have replaced the secondary fuel filter's (primary fuel filter on order) in in hopes to stop this air problem. i will post a video of the fuel and air in the lines in hopes some one has seen this before. and knows what it is where to start to save what small amount of time i can give to this old girl.

Yeah but we changed all the fuel filters and it had more power. Next up is to change the oil.

The batteries crapped out early I thought. Anyone have problems with the solorgizer over charging batteries?

I have an A1 too that is all messed with and messed up, stuff missing etc. and your pics helped me figure some stuff out. It would be nice if you deleted all the duplicates and blurry shots though! ;-)

I'd like to see the data plates, mine are gone. If you're feeling real ambitious, I think stb64 wants to return his exhaust to stock and needs measurements.
