Air & Fuel

I decided to replace fuel lines leading into and out of the fuel filter as there was still some minor leakage there.  I also put an air filter on the truck as there had been none.  The filter housing was in the bed.  Thanks to my son Sam for locating the wingnut back there!

I still did not trust it to go very far, though.  I decided to leave it idling for a while that evening.  After about 15 minutes, it developed a pop (small backfire?) in the passenger side exhaust.  I decided to shut it down.  Pretty discouraged.  Lots of possibilities are running through my mind.  It could need a complete rebuild of the heads.  I hope it is something simple like a coil.
