Achto 27,577 #1976 Posted July 20, 2020 (edited) Jim @WHX24 & I took a trip to IL to visit Terry @Vinylguy & Lola at their summer home. We took them a few goodies from WI, threw a few corn hole bags and had a great visit. Then loaded up the main purpose of our trip & headed back home. Thanks Terry & Lola for the hospitality.

What a great morning visit from Dan @achto and Jim @WHX24 Wish we would have had time to take you on a full golf cart tour. Wisconsin cheese and Dan's heavenly pulled pork. What a treat!! Best we've ever eaten. Seriously 2 3 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This one with 3.08 rears right at 9K... Wish I had 3.55 or 3.73 especially with that 1/4th of my trip home was going up 9-10% grades an elevations around 3000ft.

Can hear fuel pump run while cranking and smell fuel afterwards... I can't keep up with the grass and gardens with all the rain lately so it's not been a priority as of yet. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good luck on getting it fix. That is a nice truck. Did throw an in-line spark checker on #1 plug had Parker (step-son) crank it over NO fire there... Didn't go any farther maybe tomorrow will check it directly at the coil then pull distributor cap as well. 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,885 #1996 Posted August 12, 2020 Jeff, that one’s a 4.3L, right? They never moved the 4.3 to the LS platform ignition system? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes 4.3L but in 2014 they did go to LS style and all aluminium construction. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
