[T2] some good news

[Kevin Guarnotta]

Well, while I try to figure out my shifting problems on my '78 westy - I went to try my '65 EZ-Camper. I just checked my records, and I had not driven it since 2015. I never think I'm going to park it that long, but time goes by quickly.

I recall trying to start it a couple times to drive around the block, but couldn't quite get it going. I left a trickle/float charger on the battery.

Well today's the day - I need a vehicle, and my westy can't go into reverse. So I went to my bus, and fiddle with it for a while - turned out a simple fix - clogged fuel filter. Once I swapped a new one in - it started right up.

Back in my first bus, my first car. Feels good - although brakes feel so different from my westy. I've got to get used to all drum brakes again, with no assist.

I've got to go wash it off, and drive it around to have some fun :).
