new radiator today. In the last two weeks ive done wheel bearings rotors and ball joints. New water pump, fan clutch and a thermostat. New tensioner and belt. Time for a trailer hitch and a new a/c compressor and I'm off to Florida. F the check engine light Im sick of hunting down the cause of the p0440 and p0452 code Ive replace the fuel pump and the evap control sensor before and had the wiring done. oh well truck runs great SES light can suck it

Replaced radiator hoses and seems hopefully put an end to the leak it had. Now I got to replace the flasher. Hopefully I'll have enough time during halftime

gave it a good wash to get the salt off. boy do i hate the anti-lock brakes!, went to stop quickly and went right through a red light, barely slowing down, pedal pulsating and the weird growling noise you get when the antilock kicks in. wasnt even on snowy pavement, might have been a little slick but it shouldnt have done that. glad there wasnt any cross traffic, id have hit something for sure. took the truck out a bit later with no issues. sprayed wd-40 on the rims after they dried off, cant polish them right now, 22 degrees out.

What is this snow you speak of? lol, jk. We haven't even had a chance of snow the end of last year or this year. But it also doesn't get that cold here. I think today it was in the 40's maybe?
