To day I change out my injectors.
They were really bad.
Also have 40 gal. of used oil in five gal. cans ready for the Washington Rally.
That give me a total of 155 gal. of fuel on the truck. That should get me there and back.
Have a great weekend

Change out my injectors today.
No wonder the truck was running so bad.
The tips were clean 300 miles ago. could this be caused by the injectors dripping and the fuel baking on?
I'm running close to 100% Used oil and trans fluid.
I installed new injectors and don't want them looking like this...
Just food for thought from someone who stuck a truck so badly in November, 1977 that we had to wait for the dry season in June, 1978 to pull it out!
I want to see pictures of that please.

The problem you will have is the time under water. It's not the same as driving into a deep hole and pulling it out a while later.
vehicles submerged for days in flood water need to be completely torn down cleaned and reassembled.
If the water where it is submerged is clear you might be OK...
Us way south guys Mobileauto200 and Goodguyzy are planing to meet up with ya. I believe he tops out at 48 mph
so we might 6 min to the trip instead of 3.
I'm starting to get that I'm five years old and tomorrow is Christmas feeling.
Have a great week

I like the Friday night myself but I'm flexible.
Also any toll bridges or such on route? I remember coming up on a toll freeway in Calif. that only took change or one of them fancy cards. Did not have any quarters to throw in the bowl and had to go the long way around.
Thanks John

The solenoid under the glove box is to switch on and of the 12 volt circuit with the master switch. Its pulled of the first battery with a 30 amp fuse.
I also installed one of them gizmos that keeps the battery's charge equally.
Way in the distant future I will install a second altanator to...

Two important things. Don't light yourself on fire. And post lots and lots of pictures.
Will be looking forward to them

I worked all day at the shop and finally got some things done.
1. I welded the nuts for the passenger side Jerry can holder to the running board. Now its a snap to remove. Yep my wife left some thing on and killed my battery's.
2. I strapped in my propane tanks. One is really old but is plum...
Duct tape a milk crate to the frame and drive it up. It will be a big hit in the parade.:razz:
Oh and a huge American Flag mounted on a pole. Want to use something stronger than duct tape for that.
Have a great weekend

I'll be coming out of Springfield Or. and would love company on the way up and if not would like to meet up with the Portland convoy.
Thanks John
3 John 1:4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth.
I really have been working on the truck. but nothing seems to be getting done. Almost finished painting the inside of the camper it takes a lot of coats to cover that dark paneling.
Moved the propane tanks and got the stove working. Lit my hands on fire trying to purge the line to the heater...
Ok Unclemikey
I looked up Durango Colorado on a map.
Coming from southern Cal. you must be going through street with drawls.
It look like Durango has a shortage of Them.
It must be nice.

Your location brings back memories. I had a girl friend that lived in West Covina.
Went to church in Bellflower. Grew up in Orange county. Garden Grove, Yorba Linda, Placentia then Fullerton.

Hi everyone.
I haven't been loafing. I have been very busy painting the inside of the camper.
Man its tough work. The wood paneling sucks up the paint and its so cramped its hard to swing a brush.
I also finally broke through the floor. It was spongy since we got it and I had planed to...
You can put in your check valves and stuff and show us how its done.
Most of us can turn of valves. As far as filters go it take a lot of used oil to plug a filter unless its coming from a dirty source. Remember it has been running through a filter until its drained from the crankcase.
