i went to PAW to get some carb parts. They are closed now on weekends. I was a little upset about that. I position the truck right next to entry door and burned some rubber. I didn't bring a camera but here is a pick of a fender well.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Just got it back from having a friend put together and install a motor in trade for some work I did for him (you have to love the barter system). Didn't seem like it was running right -has a low speed miss- , so I picked up some plugs and wires. Pulling the plugs they looked brand new so I put them back in, went to change wires and found out the box only had 7 wires in it, so I cleaned up the old wires, put them back on making sure they snapped into place and took it for a drive around the block. Didn't seem to help it that much, but didn't seam to hurt it that much

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I went to the salvage yard nearby, and hunted down a kickdown for the TH475. not that I really needed it, the 454 produces plenty-o-torque, but what the heck. picked up two kickdown switches, and wiring, for $5.43!!
10 min. later, and WOW!! this is what I've been missing!! she's so much lighter on her feet. |
