Day 3
Made the run to Cheyenne. Running way smoother then yesterday. Till the A/C compressor died, fortunately the weather is overcast so no brain fry..

out of the 7 or 8 hotels at the intersection of the 80 and the 25 they were all fully booked I did find a room.

cheers to all
The AC compressor - again?!?
 
Ya we are disappointed but I think I'm taking it better than I thought I would. Pulling tent off now to get it back in the garage. Just bought a tyranny jack. Should know in a few hours what happened. I think the thought of pulling it all out is more of a bummer than missing the trip.
Bummer
 
We’re on the road but sidelined in Walden CO just south of Laramie on the WY border. The Frankencruiser just quit right on Main St. Could have just as easily been in the middle of virtually nowhere. Cranks but won’t fire.
Guess I’ll start in the morning checking out the things I touched last, namely the new fuel pump and fuel filter. Replacement tank had been boiled out a while back but did have a little rust & scale. Washed it outa d hoped for the best. In our hurry to leave today I left a spare filter a d the old noisy pump on the bench. At least there’s a NAPA store right down the street.
Looks like I’ve joined the “COVID 55” crowd this week. All appendages crossed.
 
Have you checked for spark?
 
It’s either fuel or fire. I’m on it first thing in the morning. Also have a spare distributor module I left on the bench.
 
Y’all get here any way you can 😊

Went to diagnose this am while waiting for NAPA to open and it fired right up. Pump is working and it has spark. Drove in to the parts house and went for breakfast. Wouldn’t start afterwards. Bought a couple of filters and will change out the old one and see what happens.
 
Pit stop in Wheatland Wy. On our way. Be in this evening. Where are folks staying.

Called it quits for the day in Newcastle WY just as heavy rains hit. Storm headed toward Custer so popping up the rooftop tent in a thunderstorm didn’t seem appealing after 300+ miles.
30 miles to Custer in the am. Frankencruiser purring along nicely.
