Got sad, Really sad. The Silverado deal went south. Her bank wont release it from lien for less than the lien is for. Got another Silverado in mind tho. 05 4dr with 155000km.

 

Well, did this last week

 

^^ hey, i saw what you did there......
You were doing 40mph with your parking brake on, i think someone was offroading with their lights off eh?

 

^^ haha actually low brake fluid there

 

ordered new wheels today cant wait for them to come

 

Used some quicksteel to seal up my tranny leak...it may not be totally sealed but at least it isnt gushing out

 

did my own oil change for the 1st time! its been a long time coming, but it feels good. Screw quickie oil change shops that charge you ($70) for stuff they usually dont do!

chose castrol 10-30 gtx-on sale at wally $10.88 4L and another $4 for 1L
and quaker state filter that i read is make by purolator and similar to the pureone.

my first time, spilt a little oil and had to retighten the oil filter it was seeping a little, i didnt really know how much torque to put on it.

 

Picked up a spent 5.3L V8 today for $30. Yes, $30. Spun rod bearing and all, but still, I couldn't pass this up. I'll have it down to the shop Saturday to pull apart and see how extensive the damage is, but even if I just clean up the heads and sell them, I'll make money.

 

i got a good one hand tight, so almost as tight as i can with one hand, so i can usually get it off with two later. lol

 

Hand tighten and 1/4 turn past with filter wrench/strap is whut i always go with.
