No, just kidding, but these days a persons age will put into perspective what range of vehicle technology(or lack of tech) he is familiar with----carbs, contact type points distributors, oil filters,air cleaners, alternators or generators

What brand, wt, and type of oil did you use and how much of what zinc additive did you add?????
Male, 6'3" easy on the eyes. I like long walks on the beach and rainy summer nights. haha I'm 25, birthday just pasted in march. I understand that i don't have a lifetime of knowledge and experience for working on engines but i'm willing to learn and i take as much advice as i can get. I look up to everyone on this site since i know you guys talk from experience and can most likely figure out any problems i might run into. I just looked at this forum when i got home after i worked on the truck today but i'll be wrenching on it again tomorrow so i can let ya know the names on the oil we used and zinc. Today i readjusted the valves according to the link on the first page and started to make that homemade sparkplug tool to check tdc. I didn't realize the pain it is to knock out all the insides of a plug.
