Stop pin bushing info: Home Depot Aluminum bushing, from the hardware section. #8 I.D X 1/4" O.D. X 1/4" H. It is a press fit onto the stop pin and should last forever, unlike the nylon original.

The dizzy work sounds complicated, but it’s very straightforward. PM me and I can walk you through it. Obviously, you will want to remove it and do the work on the bench. A bit too intricate to do installed in the truck.I’ll add this. If you decide to open up the dizzy...
You make it sound so easy...I’m not @GLTHFJ60...it’ll take me longer than my lunch break
Definitely sounds interesting and educational though. I’m going to resist getting distracted by that until I finish dealing with rust and reattach the control arm on my wife’s truck

To an extent. PV=nRT don't forget, so I'd expect it to drop with temperature drop. Although, the urh might be "pressurized" at ambient and you can't tell the difference between that and the higher pressure at full operating temp by squeezing the hose. I *think* that at ambient most urh's are fairly soft, but many here would know better than I.A non-leaking system will stay pressurized (to some extent) for a long while. Not abnormal imo.
I considered that too, but I didn’t think 70 some-odd degrees would be warm enough. Either way, she got a new t-stat and getting the system flushed today. We’ll see what happens next.To an extent.

Desomg, yes. EFI, no. Too many people have issues with the Sniper to justify the money IMO. I know of more than one person who regrets ditching the Aisin for the Sniper. Look up the okie rebuild. Try that and see if it clears the debris in your carb.I've got a low RPM/rough idle thing going on now in the 60...I swear this truck gets jealous every time I touch the 80-series!
The other day when I came to the stop light after exiting the highway, my idle RPMs suddenly dropped to about 400 (previously was running fine right at the FSM spec'd 650). Everything is fine while I'm driving, just when I come to a stop and idle...RPMs drop almost low enough to stall. I can compensate by pulling the choke a little, but that won't fix anything.
I checked the FCS by disconnecting with the engine running. Engine died, so that's working. I sprayed around looking for a vacuum leak. Didn't notice any change in the engine sound. Double-checked timing to see if something got knocked loose at the Relic Run...timing was right where I left it.
I noticed one odd thing earlier today...If rev the RPMs to about 3K, it will settle back down at 650. Anything less than 3K and it goes back to nearly stalling.
I was planning on getting in and adjusting the valves because it's about that time. While I've got everything open, I'll pull the air horn and check the carb for debris. I'll also check the manifold bolts are still torqued properly and do an on-board inspection of the EGR per the FSM.
Other than that, any other suggestions? Just to head off the comments..."Just do an LS swap" is not a feasible suggestion at this point!
EDIT: I think the novelty of maintaining the 2F as "all original" may be wearing off. If we weren't preparing for a move soon, I would probably de-smog, install an EFI system, and call it a day.
Thanks, good to know. I haven’t dug deep enough, but I never see anyone follow-up down the road after the initial “this is amazing” comments.Desomg, yes. EFI, no.

I think David Miller loves his Sniper, but on these trucks, results may vary for sure. @FJinTegaCayDesomg, yes. EFI, no. Too many people have issues with the Sniper to justify the money IMO.

I’m one of the people Dave knows that regrets the Sniper regularly. I still have issues with it stalling. I never had carb issues. I’ve worked with a number of Holley techs (in addition to Cam) to change settings, and it’s certainly greatly improved over the last year. Sadly, it’s still not right and out of my depth. I’d likely be well served to have Marshall or Dean look it over closely.I think David Miller loves his Sniper, but on these trucks, results may vary for sure. @FJinTegaCay
Oh wow. I thought you were loving it. I'd be up to chatting about your issues and seeing if there's any remote chance I could assist. I got pretty proficient on troubleshooting my MegaSquirt system, and I now am learning the Holley software with my LS.I’m one of the people Dave knows that regrets the Sniper regularly.
