I can already tell this weekend thing is going to be tough. I had my wife helping me bleed the brakes Monday morning before I left for work.
Lessons learned the first week were that the parts store is going to give you at least one wrong part.
Week two. Oil change. It came out like ink. Grabbed some Valvoline and a cheap Fram filter. I have a bad lifter tick, so after a lot of reading on the haters and lovers, I picked up some Sea Foam. Poured it in the new oil and ran it for the rest of the weekend.
Poured out the now black Valvoline on Sunday and used a better oil and filter.
The tick is gone. Changed the rusty sparkplugs and added some knuckle skin to the headers.
I saw this truck for sale over labor day. The same weekend as Goodguy's here in KC. Thinking I might buy it, I could not pass on these valve covers and air cleaner from one of the vendors.
