    Cheap media blaster or pay a local shop to media blast wheels

    Sadly, no TS stores here, 150 miles to the west is a TS store. I’ll check them for coal slag, or any type of media compound next time I get over to there. Several other stores over there too that might have such as that.

    Cheap media blaster or pay a local shop to media blast wheels

    I too have one of those HF 40 pound pressure feed sanding blasters. I have been doing some restorations on those small park bench devices that You see in peoples yards thats usually leaning and looking like they will fall over. I have been making struts and brackets to keep them from leaning...

    Carter AFB Competition series Carb for sale.

    It is a governor that is a part of the carb. I’m not real familiar on how they actually function as there is no engine speed device attached to it. It must sense the velocity of air passing through and partially close off the throttle plates as it sees fit. I have never had the opportunity, nor...

    Carter AFB Competition series Carb for sale.

    I think I have one of those over in the shed too. Maybe I should go see what it is. It was in with a box full of carbs a guy gave to me when He was doing a major cleanout in his shop. I dont know if it is a double pumper though. I also have a Carter, IIRC, that has the hoof governor option...

    Carter AFB Competition series Carb for sale.

    Picked this years ago. It comes with the carb, quadrajet/spreadbore adaptor plate, screws and the throttle cable bracket. I know nothing about this carb other than it is dirty and will need a kit. It has been in this box, on a shelf in my shed for quite a few years. It does have the electronic...

    Primary fuel filter bleed - diesel 6.2

    This unit does have an electric fuel pump ? I take it that it must. Yes, open the top vent valve and let that electric pump run until the air is expelled from the filter. Close the valve, **** down the pump and then the truck should fire right up. That style of filter can also be filled with...

    I bet you probably haven't seen this.

    The guy that brought this over to me, His step dad bought it brand new. A ranch truck and was mainly his stock trailer hauler. He did keep excellent PM service on all his vehicles. It appears that the truck at some time took a hit to the front end but there is no evidence of that by looking at...

    I bet you probably haven't seen this.

    Needs the finishing touches added to it for the AIR pump system to be removed, alternator put back on and whatever else it need to eliminate the rest of the EPA crap.

    I bet you probably haven't seen this.

    Come on over and get this monster truck. This is the bad side. 1986 K3500 with a manual transmission. 454 that sounds mighty nice when we had it fired up on ether.

    Can we be honest people?

    Vegas was good for a 350 hopped up V8 conversion. Did one of those with the Hooker conversion kit. It was a mighty fun car once it was all together. 3 deuces too.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I would love to own this truck. I believe though that I would have to convert it to a Duramax or a 12 valve cummins just to step up the fuel mileage some.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    A friend asked if I could put the parts back onto the engine, 454, his meth enduced BIL started removing parts from the front of the engine, AC compressor is seized and one of the air pumps is mighty rough. Going to eliminate the air pumps, or at least attempt to if I can find belts to make the...

    Get a spin on unit that has those accesories and hook them back up. WIF can be a major catastrophy to an injection pump.

    spark plugs.... Over thinking!

    I have to measure the offset, money spent for a garage to do a job, versus pain required to getter done. Any more, unless it is something quite simple, I spend the money. It’s just not worth it for Me to be in those extreme pains to save a couple hundred bucks. Matter of fact. That old 90...

    spark plugs.... Over thinking!

    I popped in this thread. Probably totally off topic, here is a short clip of an old AC sparking plug tester I acquired. Sends juice to the plug then turn up the air pressure to see if they will fire under compression. A lot of times, once a plug has been gasoline fouled, it will break down under...
