Well gentleman..this is it..MY TRUCK IS FIXED, NO LEAKS, RUNS LIKE A CHAMP! I took it in today to get my flexplate swapped out, fix my driveshaft yoke seal and also put in a shift kit...
Lemme tell ya, it's the best money I've ever spent! When they finished, they called me and told me it turned over like a mother but it wouldn't fire (it did this to another shop, then when I came, it fired right up.) so I told em I'd be right over. I paid the monies and played with it..had 12v+ to the coil...but it still wouldn't fire. So, I had to call a tow truck (AAA Plus Member, free towing) so I had it towed back to the house. Soon as we pulled it off the truck, I went to start it..voila, fired right up.
Ohh well...So I drove it around for a while, running through the gears..WOW! The shifts now BLOW the tire off. I got a nice clean clip of it idling...This is with the camera setting on the ground, just below the rear bumper (or where it should be, LOL)
