The truck is a riot. I've been taking several neighbors for rides. After all the rides, we were talking in front of the house as it got late/dark. So I got a chance to take the old girl for a short drive at night (after everyone was gone). That was pretty cool. Nothing like seeing all the lights on, driving in the dark - those marker lights are super cool.
I need to start digging into the fuel gauge. I think she's got 3 gallons in her - but who knows. That would not be cool to run out while taking a test spin. I figure I might have the wires on the gauge backwards. I have a new sensor - it's generic though, and apparently you have to adjust of the float arm. That blows in a way - I mean, effectively the accuracy would be dependent on guessing the right length. Maybe I'll get luck and the old sensor will make this obvious.
Also, I noticed the speedometer isn't working - which is odd for a purely mechanical (and simplistic) system. I'll dig into this too. Should be easy to figure out.
