Changed the valve stem on two wheels on my 80.
Broke the bead with a hilift, cleaned the hole and sealing surfaces with Scotch -Brite and Emery cloth.
I used just a touch of rubber cement to make sure I get a long term seal.
Then I sucked out 1/2 gallon of coolant so I could add back pure coolant because the mix was too low and I'm getting ready for a trip to Nebraska again and we're heading into winter. It was only good to +20°F. I'll run it for a bit and test it again.

It’s awesome when your friend that doesn’t work on cars tells you he has something in the garage for working on engines.
He said to me let me bring it over.

Drove it home after an amazing camping and hunting trip.

Thank you!
Hi Dan, I’m no mechanic so forgive me. A little confused and need a more layman’s explanation.
It’s a blessing when you have good friends!
My Cruiser buddy let me borrow the velvet hammer while I’m getting the new OE SB in.
It sure motivates me to get back in my old truck. I feel like a drug dealer.
It is fun to hoon the ricers though.
A couple cool cars at my buddy's shop.
It's also a blessing to be making such wondeful friends later in life!
