Any idea what the total is we raised for Ouray Mountain Rescue? I think this year was extra apparent how important of an organization they are.

That’s a great addition to camp, much appreciated!

To add on to @Advrider639 comments, I just recently had issues with my AFR being off. Found that the exhaust was leaking through the heat riser bushing. Was able to weld enough on it to stop the leak and the AFR is back behaving as it should. These systems are great, but the slightest vacuum or...

Landcruiser time is far exceeding work outputs at the moment. Had a leak through the heat riser bushing in the exhaust manifold I discovered yesterday. Pinned it in the hot position and I think I put enough weld snot on it to plug it up! No time between now and departure to tear it all down and...

I have a leak on the opposite side of the sping - the cab side of the heat riser is leaking exhaust through the bushing. I need a temp fix to make it through my trip to Solid Axle Summit next week. If I clean it up, do we think high temp RTV will hold? Can I weld it with my Miller at home? If...

Fantastic, thank you!

That was a quick turnaround!

I went through the break in process last year and landed on the sequence below for my built 2F by Jim C. I did a lot of research both on oil and cams to get to this, so hopefully it helps. Timing is impossible to set right without it running, so during that first 20 minutes we took a short break...

That’s a good spot for a picture

Was that wiring connector burned out or chewed on by a critter? Got a pic of your PS/Alt setup?
