Some place there is a really upset mouse. A 2-1/2 gallon bucket of corn above the headliner.....
Got the starter mounted back up and made sure the motor turned over with it. All good!!
I had a open Saturday, but I had to watch my son and a friend of his. Instead of trying to watch them and making numeous trips to the parts store trying to get this thing to run I chose to spend the day working on the exterior of the truck.
I had read a couple articles on surface rust removal using CLR and either scotchbrite or steel wool. I decided to give it a try. I started with the hood.
Unreal difference.......I proceeded to scuff the whole truck with the CLR and the green scotchbrite pads. Surface rust disapeared, and a nice satin finish remained.
After I scuffed the whole truck I washed it twice with simple green and water and a stiff brush, thoroughly rinsing!!
After that the whole truck recieved a healthy coat of Carnuba Wax.
