Evening man, been doing alright. Just got in from working on my truck. Got the r/h exhaust manifold pulled off, and cleaned up the mating surfaces. After the auto parts store tried three times, they assured me that they have the correct carb ordered this time. Crawled under the truck and made a shopping list of things that need to be fixed....ahh, life is fun owning a 35 year old vehicle, lol
