Finally a smokeless Burb...
Got everything bolted on and buttoned up last night and went for a drive
Idles smooth, starts nice,has good oil pressure.So far nothing leaking.
Time to get some miles on it and get a feeling of dependability from it.
I did end up with on wiring plug that i can't find the place to plug it it,it branches out about a foot past the plug for the temp sensor.No codes or lights.Attachment 6501
Hopefully putting miles on this Burb will be all the attention it needs for a while.
Diesel is $6.86 a US gallon at USD.
Thats to our useless leaders,thanks for nothing.
On ward to my next project,which is yard cleaning for the summer,my goal is to remove 22 vehicles in 2022,Number 1 was gone a month ago before the ground got muddy. Hopefully more sell then get scraped but i doubt that will happen.I have a 70 Ford crew cab which is headed to Alberta and a 74 Buick that is heading to Whitehorse which is great that was one i thought would end up at the landfill.
Thanks again to all who chimed in on this nightmare project,your help kept me heading in the right directions.Had i known about the bad cylinder the burb would still be sitting in the dead line.
Lots of time and money invested in this...
But it's alive and a functioning vehicle again,so that's a win
