Also for got to mention that whle doing the upper intake in the 88 I notice that the throttle body didnt go all the way to WOT. so I fixed that. It wasnt much but every little bet helps right

Today i replaced my blower resistor again so now i have fan speeds and i FINALLY got my fog lights wired up and working, but im not gonna mention i've been working on them damn things for 3 weeks and almost burnt the truck down cause of a switched wire that grounded out and burned all to hell but like i said i aint gonna mention that haha but they look good all i have to do now is move em out more cause i got them too close together. I also gave her a bath i just need to check the weather and make sure it aint gonna snow no more so i can take my dang cap off. Things to come is check the timing and bump it to 12 and get my exhaust leak fixed.

I'm convinced that's where the ~20MPG highway on my old I6 came from... after I lost the spare tire rack in a ditch, and all the missing iron from the fenders on the box, the missing plastic wheel wells in the back, the tailgate that was held together by the latches and plastic bed liner panel... the thing must have weighed 200 pounds less in the rear end, easy. For a plow truck, the front end was in great shape, still had paint on the frame... the fenders... well... they had some slight lightening going on up there, too. Oh, and the foam sealant for cab corners had to be lighter than the original steel pieces. Truck was also nice because it had floor vents. If I slid the rubber mat out of the way, air would come rushing up from under the seat and clutch pedal. It also allowed for direct examination of the road conditions under the truck, for safer driving on bad roads. Crack the window a bit, and the air circulation would keep the window from defogging. Come to think of it, that truck had a specially engineered windshield. When you slammed the doors, the air pressure would vent out the bottom, where someone had had the foresight to not seal the window to the cab. Clever, don't you think?

I could have bought an '86 F-250 diesel with that size cab that was in great sheet metal condition. It lived in the woods, except when it hauled roundbales and firewood and horse trailers... had a towing bumper on it that weighed about as much as a Honda Civic. I passed on it because I could only buy one truck at the time, and that one had a couple mechanical issues... Speedo was off because of the tire size, the tach didn't work at all, and it wouldn't shift unless you warmed it up for half an hour.
