At least I know I am not the only one :shock:


What I like is when you start on one project but have to complete another before you can get to the original problem..........

Longest trip to date

This Saturday I have a friend that lives 55 miles away and has a farm. We was talking bout setting some telephone poles for a deer stand next to his fields. I worked up a trade, labor for hunting privileges. I gave the truck a good once over, fluid levels, tire pressure, tools and headed out. The tr...

Thanks Doug,

Re: Why can't I get the timing advanced far enough?

[quote="M37Jon"the best I can get is about 5-8 degrees after TDC. [/quote]


From experience you will never get it to 5-8 degrees "AFTER TDC" That is a typo in the manual.

Set it to 4-6 degrees BEFORE TDC and you should be right in the sweet spot.

Re: Truck dies when hot and then runs later

Re: New ,Repro tail and front light Question

The number stamped on the frame starts off with 2668-0-XXXX. Yes I know I am short a number but that is all that was stamped on the truck. That makes it a 63B1. SO why then the douglas connectors? HUMMMMMMMM.
