For helping keep this great
old truck web site
on the Internet for over 30 years! and not clogged down with Ads! Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Feb 2010 Posts: 11 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Feb 2010 Posts: 11 | Hey, Thanks for the warm welcome. I popped the hood today and found the engine to be free. I was able to rotate it by hand so that's a good sign. The guts under the cap look fresh too and the oil level was full but looked kinda murky. I'm hoping it doesn't have oil in the water...Looks like it's probably a replacement motor maybe a 235...I'll check numbers and figure that out soon. Confirmed that it's a 3 speed and found that I have no brake pressure. To do list: )Verify engine size and year. )Change the oil and fill up the radiator. )Drop a battery in her and let her rip after popping the valve cover for a quick dowse in light oil and a cursory inspection. )Give the brakes a thorough inspection. I'll probably just go ahead and do a full rebuild and swap in a dual reservoir master cylinder just for the sake of safety.
Tons of fun! Kelly D
P.S. I'll try to snap some pics this weekend...It's at my new place which I haven't moved into yet. Wish I could at least wash the poor girl first...Not like it would make much difference!
