  1. Silver solder ? I will buy some. I have a common solder, but dont know what it is made of.
  2. So here is my new field kit. No instructions with it. My guess is I have to weld the copper tab to the back of the power stud. Will solder withstand the amps, or will it melt ? I do have lead on hand if that is what I need.
  3. Yes tjc.. that picture
  4. My plan is to pull the pan to clean the sludge. The coldest it gets here is 10 degrees, for 1 day. I doubt i will have an issue there.. 👍
  5. Happy Birthday Bullheaded.!!! Hope you have a great day.. 🥳🎂
  6. Happy Birthday to Mechohaulic !! Awesome !! 🎂🥳
  7. Paul,. doing a job over again wastes time and money for sure. The only pressure I am under is my need to drive this truck. But I do have to take care in these next steps.
  8. GW. I stopped to think about a PVC.. I looked at the truck a minute ago. I have a copper line coming from the valve cover going to the air cleaner. I forgot it. I even blasted and painted it for installation..
  9. Thank you for helping me again. I have not done what I am doing to this truck on any other truck. At times, I tend to overthink things, only to find out that I am fine.. This is likely one of those times again..
  10. GW. I was curious about the pressure issue. I did not rebuild the engine. When i had it running, it ran great, and the torque when i let the clutch out and when i stabbed the throttle, was impressive to me .. I will leave it like it is. I hope I rebuild the starter correctly, and then get it to fire up with my new wiring. Im hoping the distributor will accept 12 volt neg ground as it is.
  11. Ok. I guess I wanted higher oil pressure, it only peaked at about 30 ish at idle around 15. Of course this was with the original sensor and the dash gauge worked.
  12. He looks like a cross between Alfred E Newman and Bill Gates.. Just sayin
  13. I can still get the socks. I gues i was thinking about no sock, but leave the housing in place.
  14. Do you still use the sock oil filter ? I was thinking about removing the filter and jus sealing the housing. This is a parade/ local truck.
  15. PCV? Hmm, I may just do that too. Did you drill into the valve cover?
  16. I am tempted to use 15W40 engine oil in Sanford. Its an inline 6 gasser. Thoughts ??
  17. I guess you could send a P.M. to Barry. He is there parts manager
  18. Happy Birthday Back in Black Pullin.. !! 🎂🥳
  19. I did a B-Model wheel end change and removed the middle seal, and easily found a good oil seal for the hub. Filled with oil and off to work it went... It's been a few years ago.. I saw it at work for a year after I did the swap..
  20. so the EGR and the sniffers are gone as well?
  21. Car lover,,, What did that harness come from?
  22. Thank you GW.. Your words speak truth..
  23. Paul... We had to give Charlie peace today. He had been sick for a year, and this last week was tough for him. He is the "Red Dog" in the picture. He was going to 8 years old in December.. Now he is resting.. need to stop now, i cant see the key board anymore...
  24. here is the I.D. tag onit.. My mistake ,,,, 5500#...
  25. as usual some of my co-workers wont fix an expensive tool. they just throw it in the dumpster. This one got tossed because the front wheel bearings went bad. I bought the correct wheel kit from U-line and fixed it at home. My new 5000# pallet jack cost me 1hour, and $110..
