After nearly two years of fighting the original distributor, today I finally got the newly rebuilt HEI distributor (Pertronix Kit) installed and the truck successfully started (Hambone at the key, me in the engine compartment).

So, thanks to all of you who have been encouraging me through all of this. The truck runs again!!! There was a very cold Detroit 6-71 parked in front of it or we would have taken a road test. That will have to wait until the Green Leaker thaws out wink

Thanks for the support

John
