Well, barring any unforseen CGI (Chaotic Group Intercourse (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)) , I will be able to start the new V8 engine in the Black Beauty tonight. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/monkeydance.gif) I sure could use some direction on the appropriate proceedure to follow on the first run. I know this has been discussed here before, but I just ain't smart enough to seperate the ideas which apply only to air cooled vs water pumpers. I have read posts from some obviously well versed SBC folks here. Please help a brother out with a little direction here. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)
Thanks |
