Finally got my engine to fire up, before it wouldn't even fire at all, it still runs like CRAP when it is cold, but once it warms up it runs fantasticly

I also officially started my body work -- Ground out some rust and removed half my trimming. I'm off to the paint shop tommorow to buy some primer and paint

sweet! Glad to hear it!

Hey Ron - Were you able to find that power door switch? (the driver's side double switch and power lock switches)

Russell · 09-12-2003, 11:33 PM

Also, anyone know of an easy way to get rid of those black stickies from the trimming? or should I just grind them off?

If you are talking about the chrome "silverado" strip, then get a rubber "eraser" wheel. Tell the auto parts guys you need it to take off pinstripes and he'll know. Works well.

Sounds good, I'll find one sometime this week.

Still can't get the engine to run while it is cold though, and I really need my truck soon as I am very likley getting a job in the very near future...
