More problems. Traced back to within the distributor, cleaned what I could, something needs replaced... Hopefully getting a CB radio & 4 foot antenna. Would like to get a second, but we'll see. Umm guess I'll update when I make some actual progress... Hopefully I can get it running, till then I'm stuck driving the weak *** 2.8L S10...

Started this afternoon when it was warmer around 40, drove about five minutes came back home hitched up to trailer made it three blocks. Died. Started up, died, started, died. Over & over, like it was carbeurated or something. In the middle of an intersection, at that. Whyyyy..... Lol

Got it runnin'.... After a week of scratching my head about it, coming home hours of pitch black out, 20 degrees on the good days, I figured it out... Central module went bad... If you have problems with fire, auto parts stores can TEST it, do it first. If you're not getting fire at distributor cap, do this first. It's a notorious problem for these trucks I hear. Nonetheless, kind of started on a headache rack today, but not enough to take pictures of....

Need some advice...... I'm strongly debating on whether I should put a cab visor on it or not, either way I'd like to put cab lights on it. What do you guys think? I've found them online for around 75$ might even be able to find one used for cheaper....
