So I looked inside the dog house for the first time since getting the van. I feel like I've got the Van looking good enough that the neighbors won't bitch. Lol as I open the hatch, the engine is all there and looks unmolested. I knew the air cleaner was off cause I found it while I was cleaning out the van. Carb looks good, all linkage is hooked up. Distributer is there and wired correctly. Then my eyes glance over to the big oops. No radiator! I had always intended on putting an aluminum radiator in the van, but not tomorrow. Lol so after work ill pick up a battery and try to get that engine to start. Ill do a compression test, set the points, splash some gas down the carb and see if she sounds worthy of a new radiator. If the motor is totally F'ed ill jump to plan "B"
