A lot of folks like to tear down an engine and look for the problem. I like to try and id the problem so I have sn idea what I'm looking for. Sometimes it's obvious.

Correct. There was a mini tach there when I bought the truck, but the vac gauge is more useful.

Top off these days and driving to work this morning at 40 degrees......pulled the knob the first time this season. At least the feet got some heat, a fleece boggan was needed for the ol dome.

Finally put on this monster. It’s welded and crack free, for now…
Took it to the Pilgrimage in VT. Fun couple of days hitting the class 4 roads!
I remember clamping my brackets in a vice when I restored them. Lots of kroil and working them back and forth for hours to get them freed up. Started with a hammer to move them.
It looks like fun! What’s a class 4 road? How many classes are there?

That's exactly what the Tennessee Dirt Devil is.
I’ve been taking trips to Montana to get my sisters 1972 FJ40 running and driving. It had been sitting in a garage in California for decades. Took it on its maiden voyage today after many hours of working on it.
