What speed were you pulling that hill at? It didn't look like your speedometer was hooked up.

@forgetdogs not for sure that speedometer hasnt worked in as long as I can remember

is it true when you hold it down to the floor it shuts the fule off

[wagner59270]

@460fordtruckman nope but it does open up the butterflys and introduce more air to help "unflood" it

the real high low button makes that look easy whats the biggest load u have had on it i run a short bed 73 ih dump truck and i think i been overloading mine some

[wagner59270]

@amc74scout Ive only had about 18000 on it but dad claims to have hauled as much as 24k when we were farming years ago

The town I grew up in had a whole fleet of these Loadstars. Dumps,flatbeds, and most of the school buses were Loadstars.You have some of interesting machinery but I keep coming back to this truck for some reason.

What does the truck weigh empty?

[forgetdogs]

You mentioned the truck was geared fairly high I was wondering what ratios are in the 2-speed rear end.

Hey good video showing how to split shift. I think my 74' Loadstar has the same transmission shift pattern as yours, but I am not sure if I'm doing it right or not. This is a good video. I have been starting in low on mine and splitting up into high from low 4. So from low 5 to 4 high, then 5 high? Check out my videos with my truck if you get a chance and you can tell me if I have it all wrong! Thanks.
