Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
I know I just kick myself because its probably my fault for letting the motor sit for 2 yrs. I should've started it sooner.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
Ahh you can blame yourself if you want to but guys buy old cars that have sat for years and get them running with no issues!! Who knows if it would have been different if you had started it sooner.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
Luck of the draw they say. Really not a thing that can't be done in a few hours and you have help do its much more fun.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
Yeah, I got some great buds. I'm just disappointed. I wanted the mechanics to be done already.

True, I talked to my builder today and he said that he hadn't have one do that in a long time. That he wished he had a stand to break them in before putting them in a vehicle. I don't blame him. Parts can go anytime. I think my letting it sit for a while didn't help but who knows. I just gotta get it done. Quote:

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
alright looking forward to it. I wanna do the valve cover cutout thing.
We also can unload Tonto's bed of parts and pull your frame/bed in.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
I would not beat your self up about letting it sit. My burb had not been on the road since 2005 and my I had another one that sat for over ten years.

Re: Chucks SWB Fleetside
Today I started at 7 and got a lot done with a little help from my friends. Rus and Matt. They got there just as I got new lifters to install. I took the collapsed one out and took it apart only to find that it had trash in it. I cleaned it out and its good. I figured I might ought to get new ones as the others may have trash in them too. I did take another apart and it was clean though. I took the oil filter off and changed the oil. I cut the filter apart and didn't find anything. Rus put my new tranny pan on my other truck Tonto and Matt and I installed the new lifters. The motor is about ready to start up again and adjust the valves. I will cut an old set of valve covers so I can adjust them without throwing oil everywhere. We also did some things to Matts ride. His truck is Fast!
 I should have put the oil back in while I had the intake off but I worked around it. I put an air fitting on my new funnel and did a little at a time.
