One step forward, two steps back. Truck fired and started today. Horrible chirping/squeaking noise from the engine as it ran for a few seconds and died. Was a valiant effort, and I learned a ton up to this point, but it looks like it's gotta get yanked and rebuilt. Bummer.... Time to start re-arranging the garage.

Thanks a bunch for all the help to this point.
