Way to go. Fix that distributor while you are at it.

Gotts. Test drove it for about 5 miles and can't tell any difference, going to give it a few days. Fwiw, on my 97, I probably could have gone with a 3.5 or 4" pipe. With the 3", no trimming was needed. My beer did not even get warm during the install.

Cleaned the tar off the sides and painted the windshield wiper arms! Looks a lot better now!

Well the muffler was free warranty replacement (although I did have to install it), but I guess I'll pick me up a cap and rotor soon.

Well let's see. Thursday, new cap, rotor and plugs. Friday, new plug wires. Saturday, oil change, new filter and pressure switch. I still have yet to successfully change the fuel filter. Quick connects do not = quick disconnects. (and yes I have the tool). Today I unjammed the hood, apparently I bumped the latch closed while I was doing everything else! So it got pinned between the cable latch and the release level.

Saturday, fished off the tailgate in Arkabutla EMERGENCY spillway off Pratt rd. Almost slid it off into said spillway creek trying to leave. Haha I really need a 4wd or to learn how to drive a truck again.
