Are you having any carbureator problems since you changed from the stock air filter to the aftermarket...how is it warming up...did you add a manual choke???
Nice truck...keep up the good work.

took care of the vacuum leaks and non functioning EGR, also changed the trans fuid and filter.
nope, no problems since changing the aircleaner...fires right up.
still has a little stumble in it, but i think it just needs the carb rebuilt
automatic choke
is there another alternator bracket i can look for to move the alternator up higher?

lol, thanks...seems like every week its something else.....last week was tires, exhaust (flew out from underneath took a chunk out of the sidewall of my dry rotted tires), and brake shoes/pads...this week the windshield started leaking and the master cylinder is pouring fluid out the bottom when you step on the brakes... i think my wife is starting to regret buying this truck for me.

What happen to your air pump? Looks good all cleaned up under the hood. Painting the wheels black really stands-out for your truck.
Did you spray something on your engine area to get it to shine?
Lets us know what you are doing next.

the pump is sitting in a box in my garage along with the non functioning egr valve, 14 vacuum lines, and all the other potential vacuum leaks that go along with it.
cant remember if i showed a pic of the dash...
painted gauges silver, installed a tach, and a speedo with a trip
my father in law donated a spare steering wheel he had laying around also.
tomorrow i'm doing a master cylinder and resealing the windshield.
want to find a 3.25 trac lok third, and an intermittant wiper switch / control box
would love to put a clifford 4bbl intake, holley 390, and a set of clifford or headman headers, and a bigger cam
