I just built the carb..New power valve..Accelerator pump is set lean...Just on the cusp of a stumble...I dunno about the closed loop injector system..Never priced such a critter..I think I'm better off with the Iveco. It's not rusty [ body wise] runs real good starts smoke free..Chassis is a little lighter than the Ford..I'll just have to lighten the load some...Was told fuel economy was 12-14 mpg..About double that of F-600..That GMC I refered to earlier in this post was the service truck at the Deere dealer I last worked for..It ran well for a 4 cylinder and a fully loaded service truck..Smoked black a good bit if lugging over RR tracks..I had a guy behind me turn on his lights and wipers after that...I heard of a GMC truck with the Deere 6 cylinder that was built back in the 80's..Never seen one up close but I'll bet it's neat...
