Same here. Finishing my last year for Ag Business but work construction full time.

I've been threatening my truck with Craigslist. Alternator, intake gasket, and now fuel pump. All parts that will need upgraded for the swap later on

Any suggestions? Rad Drain nut broke off in my hand. trying to get the core out to replace the whole valve
Orielly auto has a new one for just a few bucks. This happened to me a while ago. Just torch your flathead screw driver and stick it into the broken part of the plug so it melts in a bit. Unscrew it and ur good to go.

Thanks Dave. I definitely need an elbow and a few other things. I'll be hitting you guys up for some N/A vac lines to keep me running for this next year.
Edit: Dave's looks the same as mine
