If it's a 22RE, it has a 5th injector. The cold start injector is found around the "EFI" logo that is cast into the air intake manifold.

Congrats on the new rig Greg it sure looks like it was well cared for and I'm sure you'll take it to another level.

OEM fan clutch and thermostat seems to have it running cool again. Axle rebuild with manual hubs early next week.

Fix the leaky exhaust after that. Remflex gasket is on order.

The exhaust has been leaking long enough that the engine bay is covered in exhaust soot. Gotta sort out what will clean that up. Powerwash didn't touch it.

Gunk engine degreaser?

I have had good luck soaking things in that or WD-40 then pressure washing.

Super clean, purple bottle.
Oven cleaner/ degreaser. Just don't get it on your paint or skin

I 2nd the superclean but would add that I would wear gloves if you use it straight. It with hot water works wonders. Glad the cooling is better.

Not gonna be bored this week. Rebuild kit for the front axle. May as well, since the hubs are getting replaced, right?

Upgrade master cyl since its leaking.

 

[Fireman]

And while you're rebuilding the axle and replacing the hubs, you should install the longs!

Puh leeze.....it's a 4 wheeler not a crawler!

 

[euclid]

Not in the plan for now.

Those 235's are kinda big!

Kroil made the exhaust manifold come off with ease. Fireman reminded me to split the manifold before I re-install it with the new reflex gasket. I'll carry my tools over early next week and get that done.

Man, I thought you were looking for a truck that wasn't a project??

 

[Fireman]

Not a project, more like a play pretty!

Stripped exhaust studs have been giving me fits. Parts giving me fits. Haven't had much time to work on it either. Rain shut down this afternoon, hope to hear it run again today, with a non-leaky exhaust.

Just been driving it. I borrowed a timing light to check that. Haven't done much to it lately.
