Engine Install

How we keep these antiques on the road is beyond me...
And then to put them thru hard use. The nerve I tells ya.

I'm telling you, we bought this thing to camp in it. The fact that it's a cool old bus is just bonus. I still don't think there's a better camper for two people all things considered... price, size, maneuverability, economy, etc... I'm preaching to the choir.

Well nothing too out of the ordinary on the valve adjustment. One at 0.004, one at 0.005 and a couple at 0.007. Hoping this thing settles in like the other one never did.

A humorous side note... I'd say maybe 25% of the time after I do the valves I get up front and crank the engine over a couple times before remembering that the distributor cap is still off. Doh!

Just don't static time and turn the key a little too much and hit the side of the garage and thank God you didn't crush the noze of yer bus.
