Uploading a photo from cell phone (previous post) resulted in a link to the photo but not a ready to see photo... Here are the photos resized with MSFT Paint & uploaded with a laptop PC:
As a result of the differences in the photos above; the Mikuni rebuild project will require removing the carby on the truck & seeing if it has a matching phenolic fuel bowl/throttle body/center section... Awaiting a set of hose pinch clamps from Harbor Freight to arrive before removing the J/Y flooding prone carb... The truck has new ignition module (in the distributor) new dist cap, new dist rotor, new spark plug wires, new coil, new spark plugs... Ignition module gap not checked by me, a local shop did that install, hope they gapped it correctly..? Ignition timing never checked by me, a local mechanic friend (Vernon) did it by ear... If the truck runs again, I may purchase a timing light & Tachometer...
Pandemic is not boring me to death ~ it's the Mikuni killing me ~ can't even get out of the apt to go for a ride ~ my truck is my only vehicle... FORD found on the road dead ~ DODGE dear old dad's garage experiment
