Angry if its not one thing, its another!

i knew the trans in my 86 was bad, and then i ran into the problem with getting no power to the coil. that's ok, i have another truck to drive...

...not anymore... the 4L60E in my 93 decided that it didnt want to be friends with the direct clutch anymore. same problem the 86 has. so now i'm stuck ride-less.

does anyone else have this kind of luck?

That does suck.
I only have my truck right now so when anything happens to it I am screwed till I get it back on the road. Thats one thing that makes me mad about working on my truck. I have to rush to get it done in time for work the next day. I cant wait till I get another ride so I can spend some time on the truck.

Good luck gettingone of them going

well, i jsut got off of work (11:00) and i have to be back to work by 10:00 tonight... so there goes getting the 86 running. once i get it running, im going to start the trans swap. shouldnt take more than a few hours, but finding the time to get over there and do it is the problem.

Every 3 months my truck breaks down for some various reason and I have to dump at least $200 in to it. Stuff happens!
