Today we finaly had beautiful weather. So I drained my gas tank on the truck, the stuff was green inside! It was at least seven years old. Went to the parts store and got some new fuel line, filter and a radiator flush kit since the coolant is that old too. I can't believe how much better it runs! This is a personal testament to Ford Big Blocks. I ordered a compression guage and low profile air cleaner from summit which should get here tomarrow. Then I can find out the ultimate health of the current rings/engine.
I also pressure washed the whole beast. I was tired of crawling under it and getting dirt and cob webs all over myself. It's amazing how well the pressure washer cleaned up the leaf springs! It actually removed surface rust off the old shocks. Next dry day I'll take the wheels off one by one and realy get it clean. Ah what a little sunshine does to motivate the soul!
