Oh yeah, I went to a local car show. Lots of vehicles, from over 90 years to the present. I remember when a Model T ford was only a few decades old. |

Got my AM tuner unfrozen, got my BT unit and speaker switch mounted.
Next we find out if the AM unit works with the speakers....if it still works at all ;-) |

Finished up the power steering install by securing the lines and re-installing the inner fender. Wife and I took it on about an hour drive. Now on to finishing up the rear bumper.

I had a crack in the drivers side manifold of the 454 BBC in my '67 K/10 Sub. I tried JB Weld. Unlike the claims on the package side, it burned off after a while. There were Ram Horn exhausts on the small block in my '71 GMC Jimmy when I bought it. After It sucked a couple of valves [#6 + #7], I bought a Mr Goodwrench crate motor 350. I noticed the exhausts were different. The RH one had tapped bores for A.I.R. but the LH was pre-Emissions. I didn't like the possibility of different backpressures, so I got Headman headers. |

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
I was checking fuses on my new-to-me 2003 Tahoe. [Weird electric window issues.] When I dropped something, so I crawled under the motor.
I didn't find the tiny piece I had lost but I did find a 1'' piece of blue sparkplug wire. I had moved the '71 Jimmy out rom under the carport so I could check on the Tahoe in the shade. The Jimmy had run rough, but I thought it was just a cold engine. I looked under the hood and found a packrat had chewed thru the #5 cylinder plug wire. No. 5 is hard to get to on a 4-Speed truck with Power Steering. I found a used plug wire I can try, but I'm not sure I got the terminal to click on the sparkplug tip. I'll get back after it tomorrow. The sun went down on me today. |
