one of our renters had to move and gave it to me
welll i'm really 16
my moms renters had to move and had no place for it, and since im slightly mechanically inclinded i thought i'd try and fix it, for 50$ hey,
No rust, perfect painjob, no dents, perfect interior, and a deck
i figured what the heck, about 3 hours of work and its perfect running
only because of your help, i wasnt going to buy a manual
thanks again

no problem. i would of recommended a manual but i got one to change my timing belt and the book was way off on some steps that is why i typed out what i did to change it. i still recommend getting a manual though as they do come in handy.
enjoy your truck!

ya
wow took it out today, wasnt as slow as i expected, it actually runs top notch, and shifts perfect too. Upon watching it run under the hood i noticed exhaust was blowing in my face...
i examined it and noticed a cold air intake for the exhaust was broke off and melted.. and then i opened it full throttle and noticed huge flames coming out of the manifold, and it was LOUD!
i guess its cracked, any recommendations and where to get a new manifold for it?
