I bought my first ranger at Kalben Ford. 1989 5 speed, manual hubs, think it was a 2.3 engine. No A/C I grew up in Akron. What's the process for the foam tube water thing?

Looks like those will take a small socket. I ordered that kit you linked. Be handy for something and one more thing to add to the toolbox😄

Nice I bought the lee hand press as we are living in a small apt while we build our house. Not optimal but, it all goes in a tote and when I finally get everything, Ill knock out a few rounds here and there.

You just replaced the spring clips with those? Brillant! I ordered a set of the hose clamp tools, might have to throw those in as well.

I followed trash panda's awesome tutorial. dropped the unit loose. The short tube has the clip facing away instead of sitting where one can get to it. When I thought I had it compressed, the rubber tubing would not pull loose. The back tube, I pushed the clip off and then got the tube pulled off...

Yep, original transmission Lot of hills, and some mountain driving for sure. Guess I've been super lucky As far as the new truck, I had planned to go look at a particular model and talked myself out of for now. The GM deal is zero percent for 5 years. Mines paid off, and I don't buy based on...

Dennis, those are exactly what I need. The clip is rotated to where I can’t get a good grip with regular needle nose. I didn't notice any moisture, honestly I was afraid of loosing that little metal clip. But handling the hose, it wasn’t wet.

Yeah, I should have looked at .45 colt ammo prices before I bought this! 😳 I'm putting together a small apartment reloading kit, for this round and a few others. I'm late to the revolver game. Looking at the S&W Mountain gun and Ruger Wiley Clapp both in 10mm.

So I tried to get the DPFE sensor off. It was a no go. When it was changed under warranty at the dealer, the clip/clamp for the short hose is turned to where I cant get to it. The long hose, squeezing the clamp, I could not get the hose pulled off. I was able to push that clamp onto the nipple...

First single action. Ruger Blackhawk, Bisley grip “convertible “ .45 colt/.45 acp 3.75“ barrel. Also my first gun broker win. My GP100 next to it

Turned a 100,000 miles yesterday. No real issues other than that wiring glitch soon after I bought the truck. I need to replace that stupid DPFE sensor. If I keep it I’ve got the 100 k maintenance to do. I honestly want to stay in a mid size truck. But, Chevy has zero percent for 5 years on...

I will turn 100k in the next day or 2. I try not to keep my vehicle much past that. Chevy is running zero percent financing for 5 years on 1500 series trucks. im kind of leaning that way. GFs dad has a Chevy custom with the turbo max in it. Drives well, and the custom is as fancy as I need...

Healthcare / medicine is just as bad, if not worse for the way it treats its people.

And just like that, the CEL went out last night and has been off since then. I am going to replace the part either way.

I have the whole replacement unit. Just wanted to make sure it’s that damned part! 🤣

Aramark is the trash food mafia. They are everywhere Get this, they run the kitchens in the prison I work at. They use inmates for cooking and cleaning. Government money waste is insane. The state of West Virginia, like most states pays an outfit to run the kitchens. Yet the state not only...

Been having the “bucking and surging “ symptoms last month or so, same as a few years ago. I figured it was the DPFE part that needs to be replaced (again). This time it threw a CEL on me. I ran a scan and this is what it showed. Truck runs fine at highway speeds, no power lose. All the same...

I bring my food to work, every day. And I drink water. This guy says he spent $1200.00 on Diet Coke in a year? 😑

People get so wrapped up in brands. Look at the Tacoma Cult. I had more recalls and issues with my one Tacoma than any Ford I've owned. My girlfriend's dad had a 21 Colorado. The transmission shit itself a few thousand miles after the warranty expired. A few calls to GM from him and the...

Looked the ZR2. If I'm staying mid-size, I need the full tow capacity as I'm going to be on the hunt for a small tractor soon. Torn between the Trail Boss and AT4. AT4 is a few thousand more. And for that, I can buy and install LED lighting in the trail boss if I decided to. AT4 gives you fog...
