Michael Richard's Journal

Well now I have a pred. 212 and oiled it up checked it over gassed her up and ran her with no problems for about 30 minutes at various throttle settings. I'll run her some more so I can get her through some heat cycles then change the oil and do some innards exploration. Throttle was pretty stiff, but I surmise that this is in the design for use on various and sundry equipment. It all goes away eventually anyway. Started fabbing up a dead pedal, and sat the engine up at the rear of the frame to get an idea of how much room I have. Looks like plenty, but have to wait for the TAV to arrive to make sure. Now back to the festivities.
