    Well I’ll be dipped. I knew I had purchased a Napa spare for the glove box- after I read your post I went and looked and there it is-TP45.

    That’s great information, thanks!

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Good question. I’ve thought about that. At this particular trailhead, there’s always tons of people around so it would be extremely risky on their part. I thought about rigging in a toggle switch hidden under the dash that would disable the ignition. I guess a guy could just take the orange wire...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Yesterday I switched out the ignition module since it was old, and wanted to try a more “aggressive “ one from Summit. Yeah, probably didn’t make a difference. Cleaned up the battery cable routing where it was just starting to rub a tad. Oh, and disassembled the Edelbrock fuel filter to check...

    Loss of e-brake after driving on rough roads

    You ain’t joking! In Michigan, unless you used them EVERY DAY it was common practice to never ever touch them because good luck after that.

    1972 GMC C10

    Well, project update with pics. We went back out to the county and picked up where we left off. We took out the spark plugs after taking out the weird heat shields that bolt to the frame. Then we soaked the cylinders with Aerokroil. True to my nature, the straw popped off the nozzle and...

    A quick search revealed this, should get you some kind of confirmation.

    Loss of e-brake after driving on rough roads

    So, in remembering my own, I know it’s a maze of hooks that slot into the frame and guide the cables while keeping some semblance of tension on them. It’s my thought that there was a little slack in your system, allowing one to bounce or rattle out of the frame, and that would explain why you...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Got the TransGo finished up today. Little bit of an unforeseen battle- the 2/3 plug was stuck, so it took me a while to figure it out. Other than that, pretty smooth sailing. I didn’t take a ton of pictures, as I was covered in ATF much of the time. The drain plug pan is installed, and I used a...

    Those would be on my short list too. That’ll look the part, especially with the sidepipes. @Grit dog

    1972 GMC C10

    That’s what I thought! We got it hooked up and rolling toward the barn, and I had thought that I didn’t want to hit the brakes and lock them up. Well, the guy stopped a little too quickly so I instinctively hit the brakes, and they kinda worked. More importantly, they didn’t do the...

    1972 GMC C10

    Helping my buddy get this thing out of a barn. I’ll post some pics later- forgot to take some when we were out in the county. As soon as we got out there we went to work and turned tail after we’d gotten soaked by the rain (getting it back in the barn). He’d moved it out temporarily for a family...
