Thank you. And yes same truck but my boss convinced me to hang on to it for a while longer. Sorry for the rollercoaster. Had a radiator rebuilt and replaced a valve stem on the flat. Some spark plugs cane loose and I tightened them. Is that a common problem? Seems to run great for the time being

I remember years ago one of my neighbors asked me to look at his 80's ish Big Bronco 300 I6. Not running right. I fired it up and popped the hood. What was looking back at me was 6 twirling spark plugs. Twirling around like a person would do with their index finger. Checked gap and re-installed 'em. Ran great.

So lifted the hood and saw the carb bouncing around a top the intake manifold. Ha so much for the shop truck being cared for. I had the shop foreman tighten it up. And, I snap off with a little remark like geez how could this happen since it the shop truck. He just looked at me and slam the hood down and walked away..
