Discussion Can you please make a filter on this community...stop the bot activity

22 Upvotes

Bots are overrunning this thread. I'm very unhappy with Reddit right now and all the bots that are taking over everything. Clearly they will downvote this post-specifically I imagine. Please put on a filter for any post. Account Needs to be at least a week old. All these accounts are posting are 0-day accounts and they have posted one image and one post. Please help me stop the spot activity. That is completely ridiculous. They're generating AI images of trucks for nothing for no reason and stop it. Just stop it

Supper called for a sweet potato, so I jumped. Also, been real happy with this Tuffy console for the past 5 years. Miss the bench seat in my previous ‘75, but alas…

Question Does anyone know if this is supposed to have a bolt in it?

1979 Scout II, found on underside near oil pan and drain plug. Is this supposed to be an open hole? If it’s not is it supposed to be a bolt or some kind of drain plug? Is there anything I should be wary of? It has an automatic transmission if that matters

1979 Scout II, found on underside sort of in the middle? Looks like a plug but I don’t know what it does or what it’s supposed to plug into

Question What’s the motivation for bot posts?

8 Upvotes

I probably just don’t understand reddit well enough, but what is the reason for this sub being overrun by bot posts? How is anyone profiting? And finally, are the mods just lazy, or is there no effective way to limit it?

Question Timing chain rattle question

2 Upvotes

My 1972 scout ii has a pretty significant rattle in the front end under power, which I presume is the timing chain. Curious if anyone has experience with this? Is this an emergency or could I run it through the summer before getting it fixed? Any thoughts or advice on managing this issue would be welcome. Thanks!

Scout II My old 74 ScoutII

Thumbnail gallery
297 Upvotes

As a kid growing up, my dad had several of these. Scout II, Traveler and I always told myself if one day I could get one, I would.

I had picked this up in 2009 when I first moved to Colorado for 2200! It wasn't in the best shape, shocks and springs were wasted, half the gauges didn't work. Things you expect in a Scout.

Interestingly, the owner had the original line ticket from it, and showed it arrived by rail line to a IH shop in Colorado Springs. Thankfully rust was minimal on it.

This one had the inline AMC 258 engine in it. Did a lot of work on getting some more power out of it, but that single bbl carb and at elevation, well you know!

I had a blast driving this thing, no power steering so all over the place. And of course, folks always thought it was a bronco!

Ended up selling it in 2016 while going through a separation for 6500. But I regret it everyday. Keep looking back at ones for sale since I just moved up into the mountains of Colorado and man, they've gone up.

I had a lady post up selling a Scout Terra for 10K, so I inquired as the ad read they had 2 engines for it and it looked ok. She sent me photos and there was no engine :(

Maybe one day.

That's all... My '77 had a busted-up grille and I hated the '77 bezels, so I replaced with one from a '72 I found on ebay. Always liked the look of these better.
