Sam, throw a 5gal gas can in the back with a funnel, drive until she quits and see see how much gas you can put in.
If your gas tank is dented it will hold less fuel.
Its not dented, but I'll remove the pump and see whats up. Right now its on E, but light is not on. Since she's down with her heads off. I have time to fool around.

You live in Minnesota, it gets cold there in the winter, use 5w-40.
Go to Wal-Mart, Shell Rotella 5w-40, its in a blue jug, buy two jugs, you need 7 qts for a single oil change.
Then go to NAPA and buy a NAPA oil filter, the middle grade filter will be best but the lower grade one will be fine too.
Dont waste the money on the top of the line one.
Make sure you grease all the u-joints and slip joints on both driveshafts each and every oil change.
how many pumps with a grease gun do these u joints and slip joints take? dont want to over grease?

You cannot over grease, once new grease comes out of all four corners of each u-joint move onto the next one.
When new grease comes out of the gaitor on the slip joint it is done.
If the u-joints will not take grease gently tap on the end caps with a hammer, then try again.
