Rob....enjoyed your last response about the wife....

My thoughts exactly about the sooty tail pipe....a 160 thermostat will go in as soon as the rad comes back from the flushing its getting.....hopefully that will get rid of the soot and run the engine at proper temps....one of my initial inquiries was why the temp gauge never or rarely went past 140 F.

Both clips are in the 4x4 shifters and they are loose but they have never yet popped out of gear....tried the shifter locations you described and it works. I guess at times I never had them in the proper sequence for 2 wheel drive.

Once I get everything buttoned up & working/running I will adjust the mixture screw as per your response.

Thanks for suggesting Brian Asbury as a possible source of parts in one of your earlier posts....he had parts for the CDN2 that many others did not.
