Re: What did you do to your truck today!

I think I cracked the piston or broke a ring. Too much blow by and runs rough. Pulled it out and waiting on a GF to come over and pick which motor to put back in.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

I did it! I did it!

After owning my truck for nearly 13 years, I fixed the spedometer!! I replaced the spedometer cable for the second time and this time it works. The "old" new one was somehow stuck. My truck has been at the 38,908.8 mile mark for as long as I have owned it. I am prould to say in all this time I have not gotten a speeding ticket.

Now I wonder how many miles I have on the rebuilt motor I did nearly 10 years ago!
