  1. Fuckin Old Rebuilt Dodge I can't throw that one out though - I have a super doodie. LOL
  2. Little plate that slips in front of it
  3. Bump it up to the top - Can we make this a sticky? Or collect this PDF on the server here? Thanks Keith!
  4. Glad that fixed it. Sorry to hear about your ma.
  5. Built Ford Tough, with Chevy stuff!
  6. You guys are never gonna let me forget that, are ya? lol
  7. I like how there's less time for the cooler pair than there was before, and now you have to rebuild the damn thing.
  8. NAPA had something that looked like a batter's helmet. And the Bob the Builder comments were there also.
  9. I was wondering the same thing.
  10. At Diavik, we'd pull the EGR valves out and weld them shut. EGR cooler failures - 0. (As an aside - we did that so they wouldn't carbon up, not to help the EGR cooler situation.)
  11. If I had suspenders on, I would do the big-city-lawyer demonstration. But I'm sitting here in shorts an' a tshirt. So. That being said. Seeeeems to me, the only engine available in a late 60's Z-28 was the 302CI (Rated 290hp) small block V8. HOWEVER. If one was to order option COPO 9560.... You got a ZL-1 car. Just pullin' ya leg Larry.
  12. I just threw out $50, LOL I had a buddy that used to run a towing service, and if I got all sauced up at the bar, he'd tow my junk home for $20-25 for about 30km's. I found out that towing HERE isn't real cheap. They were going to charge a customer that deals with us $150 to tow her truck about 5 blocks on a flatbed for a no start. Went down with an 8mm socket, ratchet and extension and a small prybar, took the EGR valve out, slammed it shut, and stuffed it back in. HA. Tow THIS, pal! Anyway...back to our regularly scheduled program already in progress.
  13. I have a customer traveling a substantial distance for me to work on his truck, which he suspects is needing an EGR cooler and possibly head gaskets at this point. His local dealer has been feeding him poop for quite some time now and he is getting rather upset with it. They have repeatedly attempted to address his degas bottle blowing coolant out of it under load, and failed every time, he tells me. I pull a warranty history on this truck, and see this as the last warranty repair. TOPPED UP COOLANT AND CHECKED COOLING FAN OPERATION, AND CHECKED FOR LEAK, FAN WORK AND THE AND IS NO LEAKS,CHECKED EGR VALVE AND COOLER AS PER TSB 06 21 02 ITS OK, ,CHECKED AND FOUND INTAKE AIR TEMP SENSOR IS PLUGGED AND NOT READING CORRECTLY CAUSING THE EGR COOLER TO BOIL THE COOLANT INSIDE IT, REPLACED THE SENSOR AND RECHECKED TEMP SENSOR READING OK Labor Op Code Labor Op Description MT12A697 Causal Full Part Number Part Part Flag PREF BASE SUFF Description CPSC Quantity N DY 984 * 030008 1 N 3C3Z 9P455 AB SE E/G/R VLV 030008 1 Y * 12A697 * AIR CHARGE TEMP SENS 031403 0 Comments?
  14. That wasn't a high-speed rollover, I hope?!
  15. Generally they start with "Hold onto my beer, and watch this!"

    Wrong turbo

    I did the same thing. They told me to order the proper CHRA for the turbo that was ON the truck, not the one by the VIN. Sorry for the next guy
  17. Actually, now that you've mentioned it Jim - I noticed that as well.
  18. Don't get me wrong, IDS ROCKS. I think it's, in my case, more an issue of the computer it's being run on, rather than the software/hardware. Now that they have the cables sorted out.
  19. Just so you guys know, CTV has a Rita MacNeil concert televised tonight, at 10PM Eastern, 9PM Central. With a bunch of guys wearing mining hats. Just so y'all know.
