Heres another random question but first ill tell ya a little about my problem, with winter coming up and with the cold mornings weve been getting ive had 3 cases where my windsheild fogged up,....on the inside, cant be having it do that because i dont want to have to clean it later whatever day it does it, if i wiped it off in the morning and i cant just drive it like that, though weve never that i remember delt with this before with any previous vehicle
so how do i keep it from fogging up in cold weather on the inside of the windshield after sitting?

 

Stop breathing.

Naw, seriously though, you could try getting rain guards for your windows and leave them cracked open. If the temp in the truck is the same as the temp outside the truck your windows won't fog.

 

well..., i allready do have rainguards even though the one on the passenger side has part broken off and i thought leaving them cracked could help but why is it doing that in the first place, none of the other vehicles i remember had that problem, and its not a thrill to get in the truck and have to wipe the inside of the windshield off, actually on Holloween i went with my dad to his girl friends place and was there until like 10:30 and left and the windsheild was fogged up but i just drove it like it was with the defrosters on high, that is when it really starts pissing me off, going down the highway at 55 not bein able to see ****

 

Well, the only time I've ever seen a vehicle's inner windows fog up is because there is a noticable amount of moisture inside the vehicle... as in it rained with the windows down and got everything wet. Check to make sure all your carpet is dry and there are no water leaks. If you have A/C, run it as much as you can cause the A/C compressor dries the air.

 

I would think waiting 5 minutes would be much less risky than driving 55 with fogged glass. Sorry dude, I know we all do risky stuff sometimes, but thats just downright dangerous. It doesnt take much to kill yourself and someone else at the same time.

 

Aww crap, so that leak that i have when it rains is probably the culprit then, i think we know where its coming from but we cant get the damn thing sealed,

It took longer than just 5 minuts to clear it off while driving and i started driving once i could see at least through a small area that was clear on the windshield, though even with it fogged i could see head lights of on comming traffic just fine, surprisingly though i never got behind anyone

 

Well today after doin the oil change i noticed the strap closest to the Axle on the gas tank broke in a rusted up spot, and i was wondering If its just the straps or holding it or if its also being held up by anything else because i dont want the thing sliding around or even possibly falling off while driving and i was also wondering, What kind of lines does it use?, just metal or does it also use rubber lines or at least some kind of bendable line, and how do any of you think the gas guage is set up in there, is it electric or done by a cable, im wodering about that and there is no fuel pump in there

 

I noticed before, but never gave much thought to it, but I have a plastic gas tank and no skid plate there. I'm guessing it was a replacement as I'm assuming the truck came with a steel tank?

Also my bed is not in line with the cab in just out slightly on the drivers side, wondering what that could be and I have I believe 30's on and the fronts do rub a little in the well when turned fully out. Wondering if it's because the tires are just too big or worse... something else is wrong.

 

No the plastic tanks are factory. Most of the dakotas didnt have gas tank skids.

Your bed is probably just out of alignment. Loosen all the bolts and move it a little.

 

Well a few days ago it did something wierd, I sometimes go out and start it to let it warm up in the morning for a few minutes,

Sometime last week I started it, since its carbrated and the choke was on it shot up to around 2000RPMs so I gave it a little push on the peddle to knock the choke off to get it down to idle, and go in the house, come out a few minutes later to find that the thing is idleing at like 400RPMs and sounds like its running off of 3 or 4 cylinders, i revved it up and it sounded that way while I revved it, well I didnt have time to just **** around because i needed to get to school so I backed it out of the drive way and by the time i got up to the stop sign it was running healthy, back up to around 1000RPMs (since it wasnt up to normal running temps yet), then once it got warmed up it was running its normal (about 600RPMs in gear), hasnt acted up since but I want to know what the hell that was about espacially since its so random for it
