First start in a year
I’m building a truck and have got to the point I wanted to start it up. I have changed the fuel pin and governor spring. So when we started it it went to high rpm’s. We quickly shut it off. The power screw hadn’t been screwed in which could create a run away. After many attempts with the same results we took pump apart to see if I had made an error installing the fuel pin and spring. Everything looked fine. My motor is a 91 and I have completely removed the ecm and wired it myself. So if anyone has an idea please let me know. Thanks

I counted the little index lines, and didn't have that happen again.

Wish I could make that sound my ring tone!
Thanks for sharing. Really cool.
On a scale of 1-10, how easy/hard was it to mate the Ford body to the Dodge chassis?

I see you had to do a little fire wall work on that Chevy.
Nice looking trucks your putting together.
The lack of intercooler on an old rig with a narrow front grille and little space would be the way to go, I would think.
