[@moore_rb]

Friggin awesome. I was a customer of Rick's back when he ran Republic Offroad in Tempe, 30 odd years ago; and I've been reading and following both since the JP Magazine days. This vid was like a trip down memory lane... no burnouts, no slicks, just a crusty old 4-by, and a fun road trip. Loved it. Betting that the lone black spark plug pulled early in the video, plus the spitting back up through the carb were the 2 indicators of the mechanical problem... guessing there is a broken intake valve spring on that same cylinder?

[@ghomerhust]

what i love is that pewe has barely aged at all since even the early days of roadkill

[@upscaleshack]

But why did it have good compression? If the intake valve spring is broken it shouldn't be making compression on that cylinder.

[@moore_rb]

@@upscaleshack the cylinder would have lower/zero compression if the valve was stuck, but the cylinder pressure on the compression stroke can still close a valve with a broken or weak spring, as long as that valve still slides smoothly in the guide. True that the compression on that cylinder should still measure lower than spec, but it does not have to be 0 unless the valve itself is stuck partially open.

That’s cool. In 1975 I bought a 1973 Datsun truck. Someone put all Jeep running gear under it. V6 transfer case and axles. Someone built fender well headers. It had 5:38 gears front and rear. His plan was to put an overdrive in it. It was a blast to drive. I painted it metallic blue with graphics. Added a chrome roll bar and custom wheels. I added a 2 speed automatic so my girlfriend at the time could drive it. She’s now my wife of 44 years. I should have kept it.

A drunk had came around the corner hit the Jeep backed up and hit the across the street neighbors car and ran away. Needless to say the Jeep did not survive. It was hit so hard that the hood was shoved back into its self. He replaced it with a gag Toyota Corolla. And yes Dave I remember wiper blade refills.
