And don't lose your fuel cap!! They're obsolete

My 2 cents. Let it warm up good if possible. Have a new filter on hand and tools ready to go. Change it out but prefill the new filter w kerosene and seafoam mix (what I would do). Remove return line from pump to steel line at firewall, remove fuel cap and LIGHTLY BLOW compressed air back to tank to...

Did you get the upgraded pilot bearing from jerry as well? It's longer. Not necessary, but helpful. If yours is okay, I wouldn't fool with it. They're a bit tricky to remove and definitely recommend removing the flywheel, which you've got that covered

Beautiful! Welcome to the form

Replacing the oil sending unit may fix the oil light flicker at idle. They're bad about getting weak. Double-check that you do have oil in the engine though and like Larry said, if it's foamy/milky. The oil cooler (filter base) and/or cooler thermostat could be clogged and the coolant can't circulat...

I'd say you're definitely hooked!

And no, i didn't have trouble turning my engine over. Make sure it's outta gear.

I think it turns clockwise looking at the front. Double chk thw radiator fan blades. They should pull air through the radiator from the front

Cool. Haven't seen a Necking Knob in a long time. I used to have one on my pup for a while back in '96. Left arm in a cast for 10weeks so had to be able to wrestle the steering wheel without letting go. Looks like it's squatting in the rear quite a bit. Is it loaded down with 'stuff'? I know my 82 ...
