  1. Once again, thanks for the advice everyone. I am sold I think I will do the bottom of my new(to me) truck too. Might as well prep it for winter.
  2. Carradine McMahon Jackson Fawcett Mays ... WTF? RIP Billy Mays
  3. What's up man? Hope you are doing well. Welcome to CR.
  4. Ah geez. I totally missed that. Me = Pwnd Good job Dave. Sounds like I need to get out of auto parts
  5. This thread is cool.
  6. Tell you what, if you have not found one by tomorrow then I will PM you my number. I will try every trick I can to find you the seal that you need. I think this can be done from 100 miles away. Hopefully, I will be able to provide you with a part number that can be picked up at any Advance. Keep me posted.
  7. Figures. Looks like I need to start saving up. Thanks for the info man.
  8. They are not bad. I can teach you some cool shit if you ever want me to show you. Soldering boards is kinda fun.
  9. Wow. I haven't seen people do exhaust like that in a few years I thought that fad was long gone.
  10. AJ, there are some here talking about a recall: http://www.topix.com/forum/autos/chevrolet-silverado/TRORS6J255OBPE8D8 Do you have any info on this?
  11. This cluster HAS to be repairable. I have worked on enough circuit boards that I should be able to figure it out.
  12. Damn. I was afraid of that. Can they just be repaired? AJ, I am sitting down. How much are these clusters?
  13. I'm thinking about it. I am also wondering now if there is simply a short within the cluster itself. I will try to find time this weekend to pull the cluster and look for a problem. Luckily a have a little experience with circuit boards so I should be able to identify an issue if I see one.
  14. Just went to look. As soon as I unlocked the door with the remote, I saw the light go off. I opened the door and it started randomly going on and off. No steady pattern, just completely random. When it does come on, it stays on for at least 4 or 5 seconds. I was able to turn on the high beams with the key off only by pulling he switch toward me (flash to pass). They would not come on with the switch pushed away (steady on). With the key on, the high beams operated in both "flash to pass" and "steady on". I believe this is normal operation. I am starting to think I have a short. Though, I haven't got a clue where to start. I can only HOPE there is a TSB on this.
  15. Too bad I am not up there. I KNOW I could find it. I have actually run into this before with a 97 or 98 Blazer. I went back to a 95 model in the computer and found it. I cannot guarantee that it will work, but give it a shot.
  16. I just walked by my Silverado and noticed that the High Beam Indicator is staying lit. I haven't even driven the truck for a few hours. Do I have a short? I noticed it dimly flickering the other day in the corner of my eye, but by the time it caught my full attention it went off. I thought I was seeing shit so I shrugged it off until now. The truck is off, locked, and has been sitting for a few hours now. The light is lit up bright. Is there a TSB on this by any chance? 03 Silverado 5.3 Z71 with 75,000 miles.
  17. The most effective way to find a boost leak is to make your own tester. Then, you can pressurize the system and listen for leaks. The carb cleaner trick will not work if it is a small/tiny leak. You will likely only find the leak with the engine off and the system pressurized.
  18. Nice! http://www.kbs-coatings.com/KBS-All-In-One-Chassis-Kit_p_8-36.html Nice looking kit with a good price too. If it really is comparable to POR-15 then I will definitely go this route. Thanks for the advice everyone. Like Rob said, I am curious to know how well it does painting upside down.
  19. Not common, but it could be. Have you checked for boost leaks in other places? My money is betting that it is not the BOV, but rather a small leak in a different location (TB, coupler, intake mani, etc..).
  20. I love MR2s. Great cars. Welcome to CR.
