Hmm... I wonder if she just needs to work out a bit..

I haven't touched a thing since I posted that movie, other than some interior and pulling trimming / grinding rust on my truck, and it fired up right off the bat today, and stayed running... I wonder if maybe it just needs to go for a nice long run to get back into shape...

There ya go. Take her out for a long run, and let her stretch her legs. It has never worked for me, but you may have better luck than I do...

Russell, my dad's a mechanic and you would be amazed how many vehicles that come in with "running rough" problems are fixed with a simple 30 minute drive on the highway.

Ussually they still need a tune up, but 80% of the problem is fixed just by getting rid of the carbon buildup by letting the vehicle stretch it's legs
