Finally bought myself a B2200

Header wrap and running a little rich on start up lol


370Z seats and seat belts, new carpet. Need to find full door panels eventually. Hoping Ill be able to find the side panels and door sills when I get to Cali.

Ok so truck is great, minor teething problems but it towed my trailer and all my belongings out to CA. Slowly but it did it.







Luckily on flat lands it could keep pace for the most part. Hills were miserable though.


Finally made it!


My issue now is HOLY SMOKES. I think the oil rings are shot. It ran fine when I pulled it apart, but after sitting for almost three years, I think the rings gave up. It smokes BAD till it warms up, then only if I'm on it.

Thats not going to cut it out here. So if anyone has a solid stock short block in So CA let me know. I'd like to get something in here soon. I'm still looking for work right now, so I'm short on cash.

I know the carb isn't dialed in right and thats not helping, but it's not running terribly other than burning through way too much oil and smoking out traffic.

Plugs are dark but not wet.



Took it out to Bobs Big Boy last night for the Friday car show. Next time I'll get there early enough to get a parking spot.

No use using platinum plugs... you're just throwing money away.
They were designed to handle the higher discharge from newer distributorless ignition systems.
