spent some time checking out p0452 after clearing out the code for a bad evap solenoid (after replacing the solenoid and new cap and rotor). Tested the voltage at the harness to see if it was bad wiring i have 5 volts. I figure a bad fuel pessure sensor in the pump???? the lesson learned u get what u pay for, spend the extra money for a ac delco pump this time. $100 for the cheepo seemed a deal in march but now 6 months later the pressure sensor went.

Yesterday I drove it to the store and got severely p***ed off that it kept dying when I was trying to get out of my parking spot. Thank God I'm finally going to figure out if the fuel pump or injectors are bad this week... I can't handle this crap anymore.

Just been putting mileage on the new engine. Once I hit the 500 mark(they said the Jasper engines would be okay after 250, but nah) I'll go back to towing...I won't mud in her until EVERYTHING is fixed on it. I took all my receipts and napkins I wrote on and put everything together in a log. Looks pretty good.

Tried to put blue LEDs in for my gauges. Most of them didn't light up, so I switched them around. Now they still won't light up. Bulbs tested okay. Got frustrated and put regular bulbs back in. Now only part of my dash lights up. I think I may have damaged the sockets when I removed the original bulbs but I'm not sure.

Default My logbook

To begin with I hand write it then when I fill up a page I go to the PDF or word document and type them in so it is a neat history log of what has been done to my truck.




I keep track of every cent of gas I put into the truck and maintenance down to a fuse. Also this is a good way to increase your trade in value or make a sale to a 'iffy' person. Receipts are kept in a folder in my file cabinet as this logbook stays inside the truck
