How much tread is left? Your best bet is to sell them and put the $ towards the 33s, even if you settle for retreads.

Cool, I'll check out Upickit. Thanks

Sometimes it struggles and takes extra time to start. I waaas thinking, it was usually after sitting for awhile. Went out just now to start it after 8 days and it started smooth. I've been thinking the timing could be off or it needs some valve work, which I have little experience with. I'm afraid that is the real problem.

I still want to upgrade the injectors for better mileage.

Could be a number of things, if cranking speed isn't fast enough due to a weak battery it will cause this issue as well as a weak/bad fuel pump can also cause the same thing. I would check plugs make sure they are good also

I'm hoping it's not but, yeah it could be the fuel pump. I gave it a tune up when I first got it. Plugs, wires, air filter, fuel filter, nothing helped. Plugs showed signs of advanced timing, according to the plug foul chart. It doesn't seem to idle fast but, maybe I should check the timing next?
