i just checked the dipstick, no signs of milky residue and still looked fresh. and like i said, the temp stayed under the normal for the entire time on the freeway and stop and go city roads. update: plugs and wires have not been changed at least since i've gotten the vehicle (@90k), could be original wires.

temp isn't rising at all, its staying steady no matter how long i run it. plus if its a head gasket i might as well trash the truck since it was just changed last summer.

need some help with finding a good trustworthy shop around campus/cbus to A) run my engine service light and B) either install or help me install new plugs/wires (i think) for an easy on the college student budget price (maybe even an OR discount ) basically I made a run to harbor freight to get some stuff, ran fine on the way there. on the way home from harbor freight, truck accelerates poorly, jerky constant throttle, i barely could get it over 60 on the highway. i think its the plugs and/or wires, or worse it could be injectors however i think this would be more gradual and not as sudden. service engine light is on but its pretty much always on. 98 Chevy s10 2.2L 5spd - 113k miles on the truck. has had a head gasket replacement around 105k, i'll have to check and see what they did to see if they changed plugs and wires or not (i would hope so...)

anyone concerned about buying dozens of tires know this - i used my good ol michelin pilot powers, not even the new 2ct technology, and ran those tires all the way up through novice, intermediate, and into advanced class. you don't need 500 dollar a set slicks and warmers to do trackdays and go fast. as for prep, most if not all trackday organizations make it super easy to start into track riding.

mon/wed i try and get on around 1045-1100 at maynard and summit. return around 430ish at Independence hall tues/thur - 1145-12 maynard and summit again and again at 445-5 at the same stop

me: "hey are you just to fast?" him: "what did you say?" -- he had that what you talking about willis expression. me: "nothing have a good day" i walked to the farthest seat back in the bus. i also realize it would have been better to ask if "you're on ohio riders?" but it was early and i had exams to take.

that explains why he didn't know what i was talking about.

ok then i know who you are, i was gonna say hi but the bus was packed.

do you were a beret? where you driving the ER this afternoon? i feel like i'm playing "guess who?" lol

o you're THAT guy lol jk alright i'll keep an eye out

i dont know what you look like. my stop is maynard and summit.

whoa you drive the ER bus? i take that every day... doesn't genfly girl drive er too or some other route? also, i'm 98% sure OSU will be open. roads look fine around here. sidewalks sketchy as hell though as im sure everywhere else.

would have rode today if my forks weren't in another state.

you didn't drink enough in the days before. bad Nick.

there's nothing "iffy" about it. wet mid oh sucks ass. i think you'll probably be ok waiting for the 5 day forecast and then securing your slot then

you know when the snow is going away?

anywhere in Dublin, but it has to be the outside of 270 Dublin, not "innercity" Dublin.

only thing i dont like about woot is it takes forever and 8 days to ship the product.

my set is with him as well. nick, lemme know if you have any leads for a return trip or if you're just gonna pay for shipping back

he's already here eating with ben.

not anymore. i've had mine a solid year and half and have had no problems whatsoever. still looks and runs as good as the day i got it.

that works too...

OSx definitely grows on you, takes about two weeks to fully transfer from windows to the new operating system.
