Re: 1969 Chevy C10 Project (Houston, TX)

Was at O'Reily's tonight getting the Haynes book and ran into a guy from the neighborhood. He asked what I had under the hood and I showed him. Real nice guy. I told him I was going to see how much timeing lights were. He said I could stop by anytime I wanted to and use his. So I stopped by and this guy is so very nice. he got out his timing light, special wrench to loosen the nut that holds on the distributor, makrked a line on the circular thing that has the timeing numbers and adjusted it to 15. It was at 40. (I know I sound like a newby...I am). Anyway, John (the neighbor) was so very nice and his knowledge is leaps and bounds above mine. Anyway, my timeing is good on my truck now. I do need to go pick up a manifold exhaust gasket tomorrow. I'll install it. the one that is on there now is coroded. Sure helps when there are others to show you the ropes.
