Tried to wire up my parking lights on the light bar so they flash with a pair of relays, but the relays I bought are the wrong kind and won't work the way I planned. More in my build thread in a minute.

Tried to find out why I had a P0305, and I found an oil milkshake. I can't tell where the problem is, but I'll try to find it at some point.

The oil problem... :/ worse than what I thought! I thought it was originally from the oil pan or one of the lines that go to the filter. But of course nothing is ever easy with the blazer. It is the valve cover that's leaking!
