    Chasing nests,,, I think I have them all, now to scrub/sanitize put it all back together and drive for a bit. I do have to reconnect the heater control cable to the flapper but easily done now.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Smokey's been sitting in a field for over a year now, we go start it up regularly and a couple of weeks ago the manager of the park we live in said I could bring it over to clean/wax and do some minor maintenance. As soon as I got it here the radiator started leaking. I took it back to the...

    Fuel Gauge passed full

    Try replacing the selector switch in the dash, that's what fixed mine.

    Sorry, the link (https://www.facebook.com/groups/515218605226689) requires joining the page to view and there is no way to contact the owner otherwise. I love these techie larnin' experiences. It was a c-30 rolling chassis flatbed. Here's the info I can provide if you want to try to join the...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Thanks for the input but if that's the case, I don't know why they just didn't jump directly off the fuse box, why go through the trailer brake? It's also a blue wire so if they tried to be consistent with diagrams, that would be the brake. Of course PO's don't always follow diagrams or...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Went over to where the truck was stored today to do a little puttering and start it and warm it up. I wanted to figure out what the switch at the bottom of the dash went to since it didn't seem to do anything when switched on. It went from the trailer brake, to the switch then all the way down...

    Importance of charcoal (Evap) canister

    Lots of info on the net for rebuilding the existing one. I was going to try to do that but just decided to dry mine out and reinstalled it instead. It passed smog and no particles coming out of it so far. Like Harry said,, are ya feeling lucky???

    The original model v6 wasn't the easiest either. I had to replace a starter in this one and couldn't see it happening. So far, starter, brakes twice, battery and tires twice.plus oil when needed. Not bad for a throwaway car...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Got under the dually in the dirt to check the exhaust flapper movement when hot. WTF looked like a tesla coil dancing up and down the exhaust manifold. Replaced the loose spark plug wire and damn,,, it ran like it did before I stored it. After a clean and wax, it's ready to run up and down...

    This is with the flapper restricting the exhaust.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Well, I was able to find a spot under an oak tree to rent for my dually. No more crying in the beer. It's within ten minutes of my house and I can work on it there. Most places around here won't let you do even minor stuff. First thing I noticed when I drove it there was that it was running...
