i would bet your the happiest man on the block
Very happy to take her for a drive for sure !!!!
I took her out for a good drive today after getting a temp registration, about 10 miles I think ! A couple of issues popped up that will require some working. The transmission does not shift automatically, but will shift when you do it manually ??? I'm not very knowledgeble on the auto-trans, so I'm not sure what the issue might be ? It also hits really hard when shifting down into first, while still moving forward. I also noticed a pretty good leak from the trans after sitting for awhile, after the drive, I'll have to jack her up and see where that's coming from.
The other issue that popped up is a rough idle after the drive. Seems to clear right up with alittle increase in RPMs, so I'll have to take a good look at the carb this afternoon, to see if I can figure out whats causing the rough idle after a good warm up.
The good news is, she ran along pretty good, as long as I shift by moving the shift lever. Brakes seem alittle soft, so I'll have to adjust and bleed them again, to see if I can get a better pedel. Well the grandson should be over again this afternoon, so we'll see what we find.
