Installed a bug deflector. My damn OCD made this project last for almost an hour trying to get it perfectly lined up and centered.

Today I replaced the intake manifold gaskets on my newest vehicle, a 98 Jimmy Rocky Mountain Edition. I also replaced the water pump, fan clutch and thermostat while I was at it. There's no point in taking the belt and hoses off twice.

Well I don't really think I fixed it but more just masked it. I just took out the fuse from the fuse box in the cab labeled ABS. I know that people that have this issue normally have both abs and e brake light on but mine was only e brake so I just tried taking out the fuse and the e brake light started working as it should. Im guessing that fuse it just the warning signs for the abs since the actual abs fuse is under the hood.

More less yesterday but hopefully did the last fuel pump for a wHile. One in it had a bad gauge unit and I had one with a bad pump but good gauge. After messing with clips and re-pinning plugs I made 1 good one. Also threw a pair of small spacers I had from my Eclipse I recently scrapped on the back wheels (they are thin, not really enough to even notice but it got them off my toolbox) and while the wheels were off painted the calipers.
