Sounds real close to me, Harry. Runs like a Swiss watch. Well done!
I have a little spark indicator between the spark plug and lead, so you can move the distributor back and forth with the ignition on and time it pretty close.
The clutch fork was too tight as when the plate under the pedals is installed it depressed the clutch pedal, I adjusted the 4 wheel engagement to the shifter for the transfer case shifts better, the Winch brake needs to be tightened up a lot and the brakes are holding pressure, I think I'll be pulling the master, grrr

As for leaks, it's coming through the compressor pump and overflowing. Probably needs a new bushing. I also forgot to put on a coolant recovery bottle so that pucked out a bit after I ran it up to temperature. All problems I've dealt with before.

Default Rumble

Anybody have any trouble viewing the video? I'm trying out Rumble as a host instead of YouTube.

Default Rumble problems? Nope

No trouble for me. At first I thought Gunner Mike was in the seat. You two have a strong resemblance.

Happy to hear the old girl run, and like how smoothly it started.
