Too late 😂. Here’s the B2’s I get from Am@zon

What a trip! Thanks for sharing. In 1990 I moved from Wichita Ks to Seattle, and on the drive there in mid-April IIRC I thought it would be cool to drive up through Yellowstone from the Denver area (my parent’s home). I was in my Porsche 944, not a Land Cruiser 😂. I stopped in Dubois for the...

Rest of coolant system will need to be dismantled to ensure validity most likley.

Don’t know about your carb, but on most that I’ve worked on there is a small ball in the bottom of the accelerator pump well to keep pressure from the pump back pushing fuel out the inlet hole. Sometimes those balls get lost or forgot about when rebuilding. Your inbound kit may have one, a...
