IndyAnne: 88 Chevy K1500 -- Trip Odometer Fingers Crossed today

First of all, thanks, JB and Big Phillip -- I appreciate the correction on the TBI for the 350 engine. See what I mean -- total newbie here.

Today is Saturday, the trip odometer has been curing with the Treadlocker-green for a while. I can still turn all the mileage wheels, but I cannot manually turn the broken brown gear that travels in tandem with the tenths wheel. Encouraging!

I agree, a trip to Trucks Plus Salvage for a replacement would be a better use of my time. I will use the adhesives on a lot of other projects around the truck and the Airstream. I like to putter on little gratifying completions because there are so many bigger things I can procrastinate about.

After I take this out and test it, I'll post the result. I suppose two options will emerge today: a trip to Trucks Plus, or move on to the next project: the broken shift indicator (use for the Proweld plastic adhesive).
