    @@Ol2Stroker step timing control or STC was what they did to the big cam right before they started making the N14. It was some kind of early attempt at emission control. Is the fuel rail pressure increased it retarded the fuel injection timing. Sometimes it screwed up and the timing stayed retarded even at low fuel rail pressures like when your idling. The late timing would make a lot of white smoke at idle

If I had the spaceand a ton of greenbacks, I'd be makin' a custom rustbucket ratrod rig out of one. Kinda like a mix between the Peterbilt narrow nose from the movie Duel (1971) and an Aussie/Kiwi roadtrain look. A freakin' American/Swedish Frankenstein truck. Oooh, with a firetruck horn too like the mini COE from Jeepers Creepers. A Wolo Chief if memory serves. Haha.

    A vintage truck being towed by a vintage truck, how awesome is that? Oh, wait, I just called those trucks "vintage" and I'm older than either of those trucks! That is one way cool Western Star. So, what are we working on today? Not just junk, Ford junk! Ford L-series is a bit strange. It seems Ford designed them to only use V-8 gasoline or diesel engines. To get the highly popular Cummins inline 6 into the L-series, the engine has to be tilted slightly onto its right side. Ford engineering. They were built Ford tough, with steel cabs that rusted out. Woohoo! A Greta cameo appearance. LOL! Yeah, it smokes... a little. Yep, shake hands with danger, it's not fun unless danger is involved. I agree, parts truck, it would take a lot of money and time to make it a road worthy truck, but it has plenty of usable parts.
