Got the wires hooked up - got the engine primed, got the head pipe on (so the exhaust doesn't catch the body on fire
Had real problems getting the fuel system primed, worked on it for an hour and couldn't get a drop of fuel to come through-
then I remembered to hook up that little wire on the fuel solenoid----- then it started on the first rotation and idled perfectly !
(say DUUHHHH.... )
cant believe how smooth it is inside the cab. Cant even feel its running. The motor runs as smooth as silk !
It has a 6 speed manual with high and low range. Tried low range 1-st. It is about 1 foot in 3 or 4 seconds !
Even high range first seems like it may be too low to start off in traffic. 2-nd might be OK ????
Only drove it around the yard so far as I don't have the power steering up yet- pretty hard steering with 31 inchers and no ps. I am hoping it is just air in the lines. going to jack up the front tomorrow and exercise the PS to see.
Will try to post some pick if I can remember my password to the photobucket site.....
Clutch seems to work fine (my first clutch install)
Tranny (somewhere)makes a little noise when I engage the front drive shaft.... may have an issue there.... to sort out later.
