Try to be prepared . A plan with some goals in mind is always a good thing. Be open-minded, have coffee ready and available and be ready to change direction and speed as the day progresses.

My list included a few things that were required for State Inspection and a few items that I did not expect to even get near. The Brakes are good . The Clutch Pedal is tighter, valves adjusted (again), headlight relay is toast (but the High Beams can be made to work!), the Dash Lights are missing in action ( ), Distributor was removed, points set and Distributor replaced. A timing lesson followed and a few Holly Weber carburator adjustments; the bus ran better than it ever has. The test ride was the 2nd longest ride I have had in the bus, but it unveiled some potential problems that resulted in a carb removal and cleaning. Carb options have been added to the ever growing list of things to do. There's more to be done and most importantly - I'm keeping the bus with new motivation.
Thanks Colin.
