A lot of work haha but it's almost there.

I really don't know, we have a junkyard about 40minutes away.
He has a whole section in the back mostly dedicated to Mopar stuff. So I just go up there for a few hours and pull whatever I happen to find that looks interesting or useful.
Most of the trucks I'm guessing were working trucks and for towing, emissions stuff would likely be a hindrance in that aspect.

That said we don't seem to have any emissions checks at all here, at least in Ontario, or at least vehicles this old.
I removed the third catalytic on my exhaust and replaced with a regular piece of pipe. Nobody said a word during the checks it needed to be deemed roadworthy.

Yes, I intended to replace it thinking it could be the cause of my issues. Low and behold it already had an updated double roller and was perfectly fine.
Then when putting it all back together the kit I had did not have some of the required gaskets.(First time doing it so I didn't know) So waiting for a new kit, then I'll be doing valve covers and intake gaskets to cover my bases.

Here is the kit I bought in 1993 or so direct from the norwegian importer. Worked splendid till I stored her from 2000 - 2022. Then had to buy two new parts: The one on the front fender and the other one behind the windscreen washer tank.
