Gonna bite the bullet & try a drive today, just waiting on the parts now anyway. In the meantime my darn PU started draining the battery again, I think it's about a year since I had the wiper motor changed & it was good all winter cept for I time I just let it sit too long. Good thing Mark gave...

I will eventually, just all this crap is taking the fun out of going for a simple ride!

the non covered in grease part!

OH dang, a ways to go yet, that's gonna be something when it hits daylight!

NICE!!!!! It sure is GREEN. How soon do you get it back?

Called parts gek, that guy said the # I gave is for a 71, won't cross over Got another guy on their chat, also 71 won't go, so I went ahead & ordered the locking one, & that dang thing says 71 to74 , how could that be!

Was thinking after the next drive when I get in the driveway just open the cap & first see if it sucks my hand off & if so let it idle after I give it a breath of fresh air & see if it still dies out?

Locking cap is not that n big a deal, like 17 bucks, the other was 5, gonna call them later & see why the cheap one dissapeared? If it's no longer available I'll just get the locking one.

YEA! small victories are good. The haunting is all the little bugs the annoy the heck out of us, a guy that shot himself is a good candidate!

I'll probably end up doing that just before I croke, so I won't have time to enjoy it!

Holy crap, went to order the cap & it does not come up on their website, it was friggen there the other day, gonna call em tomorrow. They do show a locking one for 3x the price, I don't need a locking unit!!! So doing some mulling over how to approach this thing when the carb kit gets here...

Did that car come from texas, I'm beginning to think it's got the same ghost as mine!

Parts geek has a vented gas cap, looks like mine but has something protruding down the middle mine does not have? motorad # 16641-05842187 Like 5 bucks, I guess cheap enough to try it?

Ordering the kit now. I will pay with those first! Thanks!

Scanned the book & didn't see anything on adjusting the throttle plates, any tricks or tops on this?
