Thank you very much guys..I suspected a 235, I was thrown off by the tall pushrod cover??
my main reason for wanting to know is ignition parts. Are 216 &
235 points, cond, regulator interchangable. I assume they would be, but you know what happens when you assume. My "parts I bought thinking they would work, but didn't" box is overflowing.
Here is another little mystery for which surfing hasn't supplied the answer. The truck is equipped with what I thought was a straight "over/under" brownie, but I'm beginning to doubt that.
The shift lever is very short & would be awkward to use in that manner....then I found a pencil diagram on the dashboard.
It is an L shape. top of the L said "high" , bottom left said "std" & bottom right said "low". Any idea what this type gear box might be called??
I suspect it may be a "pick your range,hi,std or low" & then just shift the primary 4 speed.Any hints
When I bought the truck I was told it was "running when parked"
Then a little later I was told oh "yeah, the clutch is out".
Yesterday I found a small hole in the oil pan... Just keeps getting worser n worser. Bought it from a good friend (I think)!
Thanks for the help, I'll keep after it
