I also changed the headlight switch and the floor switch. So now the headlights switch from low to high beam.

I took the radiator out and cleaned the neck area. I used some solder that I've had a long time that had flux in the center. I got it all back together and started it up. No leak. I'll paint it later.
My alternator seems to be making a whistling noise. Go figure.

Thats not necessarily the truth. It could be the belt. Chuck you should try and tighten it and see if it helps.

Its not belt squeak. Its like a low tone whistle then it gets louder as the motor runs. I think I've ran the truck out of gas... I do have an exhaust leak on the passenger side.


I'm tired of doing mechanic work.
