    So I've decided to take my 84' to work today cuz it usually stays parked. I topped up the radiator fluid tank and the engine oil (a whole quart :eek:)

    It overheats when I'm staying still with the truck on but cools back down when I'm driving. Guessing some kind of fan.

    And the engine is losing oil fast. My first guess is valve cover gaskets. I ordered them online and am just waiting

    IMG_5872.jpg IMG_5875.jpg IMG_5879.jpg Did the valve cover gasket this weekend with a friend. Didn't take much more than an hour. Old gasket was brittle and all cracked.

    Now the engine needs a good degreasing and a powerwash
