Maybe my theory about running hot due to a poorly maintained distributor was correct. It was cooler today but it did get into the low 80’s F(high 20’s C) where we have had problems on prior days. The engine started and ran great. It had no problem going up a very steep hill inside the park like it did when we came in. We stopped for gas after about 100 miles or so and had no problems afterwards like we have had for almost the whole trip.
We are staying in North Sterling State Park in the Northeast corner of Colorado very close to the Nebraska state line. Streets & Trips (it has lots of good features) took us on a roundabout route to this park that included several miles of unpaved (but relatively smooth) county roads. We were very dusty when we arrived and are planning to hose the whole rig off once the rangers leave. So far we are the only ones here. The section we are in, called the Elks Campground but nothing to do with the organization, has electricity (30 AMP) and a dump station and only cost $20 per night. Looks like it will be quiet.
