Re: What did you do to your truck today!

Spent some quality time out in the shop with the truck yesterday. No interuptions. I threw out a bunch of things and sorted through the piles of parts and hung some up on the wall where I can find 'em now. Then I fired it up and let it run for an hour or so. It's been too long and needed the fluids warmed up and circulated. Of course the battery's weak and required a boost. The rebuilt quad must have some trash in it or the float is bad as it now idles really rich and won't idle steady. And with just headers it's loud. The older lady next door came out saying something but I couldn't hear her. I think she was sayin how much she enjoyed that old truck and I should fire it up more often.
I'm slowly getting my shop back to where I can open the door and pickup where I left off without having to move a bunch of stuff out first. That 24x24 shop has been more a storage dump than a truck shop for a lot of years. It's hard to get motivated on the truck when you can't get to it for all the stuff.
Sure was good to hear it run again.
