Blowing the dust off old Lucy, need help!
She's been sitting for about 10 years now and I'm finally trying to get her cleaned up on the road again before her bfg shoes rot away. She runs fine at idle but when I put her on gear and start to move the engine bogs down and wants to die, no power at all. I've replaced the entire fuel system from the tank to injectors, because my dumb ass left old has sitting in it for ten years or more. Any help would be great.
To start I rebuilt the transmission, that was the original reason it was parked. Since then I replaced the entire fuel system. Repaired a cracked air intake hose with duct tape, found some wiring issues and half assed fixed them, went through the vacuum lines to ensure they are correctly hooked up, and replaced the brake booster.
