Re: Project 91 Bsquared

I havent driven it but the mechanic said he ran it at the shop for 30min with no issues then he took around the block a few times and then he adjusted the timing. Since I couldn't go faster then 45mph.
He wanted to charge me $135 for 3lbs of free on and coulndt guaranty it wouldn't have a leak since "its an old truck"

Re: Project 91 Bsquared

I probably put 100 miles on the Burb today running all over the city and highway driving. She ran good for me. I talked to an exhaust shop about installing my headers and replacing all my pipes, mufflers and new catalytic converter and running duals they said it would cost my other arm and other leg that the mechanic didn't take.

Re: Project 91 Bsquared

Well the burb broke down sunday night about midnight 3hrs into my 4hr drive home. Cruising down i-70 the engine just cut out. It was blowing the ecm fuse. So monday morning I had it towed to a shop in Topeka and they figured the wiring on the fuel pump went bad, so it got replaced along with the sending unit. It ran like a champ on the hour drive home today.

Re: Project 91 Bsquared

I hope the gremlins find another truck in inhabit! Maybe they'll take off down I35 this time instead of a walkabout down 169 to me.

Glad to hear it's going again!
