Thanks! I can't say that I didn't doubt myself for a long time, too. I've been "planning" to do this for a year now, but the necessity of it finally forced my hand. I don't think the truck could've run much longer on the old stuff. The plug wires were in bad shape, and the points were pretty worn down. I just couldn't bring myself to pay someone to do it. So I just studied... my grandpa never really worked on his own trucks (mainly just the tractors), so I didn't learn much there. Like I said... I still need some tools, and DEFINITELY need to improve/change my processes on the next oil change to make it go more smoothly, but it feels good to have done it myself and not be out $200 in labor. =) LOL!
