atf is abrasive. its for cleaning out injectors not lubricating them. use oil or i prefer shaffers fuel treatment. in two years you can sell her to me and it will have a good life working in the non comunist parts of america
I'm calling this a Barn Find!

In mechanical engines you can use ATF to clean the injectors and carbon out, just fill the fuel filter full and run it out, does not hurt anything and will clean out the tips and cylinder heads of junk built up.
Mechanics and drivers used this for years before any commercial injector cleaners. -
I still need to pick up the sleeper and put it back on but figure it'll be easier access to finish going through air lines etc. without it on. Passenger side fuel tank and front tip of left side fender and bumper got dented where it was stored. For the price and mileage, who cares!aiwiron, Big Don, Container Hauler and 1 other person Thank this. -
Nice. Looks like the water pump has been replaced at some point and a few hoses are silicone.
If this truck has been run just a few years ago with this new fuel and there's no fuel leaks you'll be fine not adulterating your fuel like some amateur petrochemist!
Great find but it ain't like a mint 1935 Packard.

Guy I bought it from did tell me he replaced the water pump.

Sweet truck man, hell of a price, looks to me like you need to break out the buffer and polish the wheels, tanks, grille, stackss, and then buff that paint up really nice.
