Looks like the bus dropped a turd. Laughing probably from all the new stuff.

Today I changed the oil (VR1 20/50), changed the oil filter (Mobil 1 301A), adjusted the valves (2&3 exhaust valves were all I touched), cleaned and lubed the air filters, lubed the carb linkage, detailed the engine and lubed the doors. Just need to pack and we are ready for the road.

Engine still looks pretty good!
