Welcome all!! Yay for the long weekend! Camping, fishing dirt biking, and hauling it all with the ford is in order. There is also a Winnebago camper on my property that I think I'm going to try and um "persuade" it to follow me out of the woods so I can start pulling it apart for scrap/salvage.

Good morning everyone,
The last work day for me before the nice long holiday weekend !!! I hope to get a little time this weekend to look over the old truck. The distro keeps slowly turning out of time even with the bolt tight, I need to look at that. Have to start packing my stuff for the field exercise coming up.

I've run into that problem before with a vehicle. It turned out to need a new hold down piece that the bolt goes through. It was on an old Chevy, but the principles the same. The old one was wore out to the point that the distributor would just spin with the bolt tight.

You guys seem to have all the fun while all I'm doing is fishing in Florida for the past three weeks. I did it right at first.
