Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
Got the old girl purring today, thanks to my new friend Eddie. We discovered the timing way off, too far advanced. Back to a factory 8 degrees, and she really smoothed out. Then getting the dwell back to 30, and some carb adjustment. Wow what a difference.
Also found that the mufflers are shot, broken inside and rattling loudly... so off to the muffler shop ASAFP.
Also reconnected the cig lighter, and the AM radio antenna cable. Guess what, the 50 year old stock AM still works!
Got the hood adjusted so it doesn't stick up by the cowl too. So no new hinges needed.
