Wouldn't be surprised to learn of reports of gunfire at the Wal-Mart parking lot today. When that old van fired up today the cylinders were loaded up so when it popped off it sounded like eight gunshots right in a row.Kinda like a big 426 firing off.
Went tonight to look at another old van a 1996 Chevyvan20. Looks to be in fair shape. Bunco of water in gas tank. Told the guy to hook the fuel pump directly to the battery and let it do all the work and pump the water out. Put some gas in along with a couple big bottles of STP gas treatment and that would get rid of the water. Brake system needs work but that could be just a faulty booster. I haven't decided yet whether I want it or not. The guy wants $400 for it. Couldn't really tell in the dark but looks like it has a 305 engine. As my nephew says it's about time to retire the old RAM and start playing with something newer.
