My truck Started!

[Mallinson1 <Mallinson1@domain.elided>]

Yea!  My truck runs again!  It turns out that the fuel pump was bad.  Still, I
put in a new filter.  Thanks for all the suggestions.  When I got it hooked
up, cranked it over and saw fuel surge into the new filter, I let out a
"whoop" and caused quite a ruckus.  My wife is happy too, if only because she
doesn't have to share her car with me.

I also saw 5 "for sale" ads in the newspaper last night.  I'll call on a few
of them, if only to check them out - I have plenty of interest, but no money
to buy.

`68, 3/4 ton PU, 40K original miles, never used as a work truck, like new
(aren't they always?) $4500  425-822-5122

`73, 4x4, 3/4 ton, 3" tires, new rear end, 3 gas tanks, brush bar, new
upholstery, needs work.  $3500 obo.  253-395-3363

`64 Stepvan, newly rebuilt engine, $1900.  206-284-9063.

`79 Scout Traveller, good condition, $2000 obo. 425-562-0051

`72 Scout, VERY nice, 4x4 with leather seats, 345, AT, $2400.  206-528-5519

I don't think leather seats belong in an IH, they must've thought they were
buying a yupmobile :-).  I'll probably go look at the `68 pu.  And of course I
am no relation to the sellers, etc.  If I was, I wouldn't let them sell
anything!
