OK, Its been a week, Whats happening???

Well Dan to be honest about it,I'm going to the repair shop on Sat to go over a list of things I want done as I posted in my last post.

Not much is going to be done to the Rv until I have gone to get the V8 for Old Yellar on the 19th.To do that I need to car trailer the van which has already been converted to a 350 V8 from Evansville IND back to Roch NY.and transplant the 350 into Ole Yellar.

Hey buddy, Hope you have a great time this week,Sholom!

So, How does it go??

Well folks I haven't given up.The tow which was supposed to happen over the holiday wkend didn't happen.The guy who was supposed to lend me his trailer was a no show.So the donor TBI 350 Astro for Ole Yellar is still there in Evensville In needing to get towed back to Roch.Starting Jan 1 I will start collecting all the needed parts to finsh Baby.More deturmined than ever before.As time goes by I will post what I bought and why.Gary

Hope for a better new year!!

Dan-there is a old saying.It is what you make it.This yr is going to be a good new year.

I'm hoping that too!

Well the tow from h.ll started on this past Monday to get the donor V8 Astro back from Evansville In to Roch NY.Got as far as 40 miles outside of Cleveland and smelled antifreeze.Nothing on the ground and not wet inside the passenger side.Thought it was the heater core and turned it around back to Roch.Cost $120 in gas plus tolls.Grrr.Got to look at it on Tues and found it was rotted hose clamps the we replaced only a yr ago for the rear heater.Before I went I changed the oil and filter on the LT.I have been a Fram filter guy for about 20yrs or more.Read a report that made take note about Frams filters and how cheaply they are made.So this time I used a Wex filter rated very high.I am very happy with it so far.When you step on the gas the oil pressure stays up for a long time afterwards.Got something to do with how the valving works better on the Wex filter and it filters more on them over the Fram design.Noticeable difference between the two.

i don't know about you but I am going to be moving soon... To a place warmer than here!! Hot in the summer and warmer in the winter..,Thats what I need!!! Maybe south Texas or south N.M. thinking about April, Hope so. Check out this place,
