I bought an '86 S-10 for $300. It's ugly, but it hasn't had a single problem
in 4 years of daily driving.
I've hauled loads as heavy as 1960 lbs in it!!!

Carburetor linkage
After cleaning, I always coat the mating parts with a light coat of 3in1
oil, then wipe off the excess.
I've done that for nearly 30 years with no adverse effects.

Bondo over POR15?
Does anyone know if it's OK to apply Bondo® over POR 15®?
I'm doing some minor repairs under the front fenders on the "inner fenders"
(apron), that mostly won't show.
Thanks,

Thanks! That makes perfect sense to me now.
It does match up to the water pump bolt pattern, no problem.

newbie trying to help a neighbor

I'd bet that his pressure is just low.
