Completed this last night. Also replaced the temp sensor 2.

Night and day! She is a new beast! We hadn't named her yet, but last night
my wife exclaimed "she's peppy!"

I now introduce Pepita the Westy Weekender. :)

Other things done:

Replaced all vacuum lines.
Timing and idle set.
Adjusted idle switch.
Ignition parts all replaced (tune up kit from van cafe)

To do:
Fuel lines (have you done yours lately?)
Double check cooling system, including fan up front.
Tires....

Then I'll be ready for some hot weather long trips!
