I just got done with the longest plug change ever. What a p.i.t.a. I haven't seen that much corrosion in an engine compartment since I sold my '79 t-bird.
I also found out that my exhaust leak is from a broken bolt on the manifold. I think it will wait until spring.
The fun of buying a 12 year old truck. hooray!!(sarcastic)

 

Mine is 12 years old and the engine still looks good especially for it being a pa truck all its life but this year I had to pain the rear section of my frame since it was getting bad.

 

dodgeramguy85: I really can't complain I've only had the truck for about 2 weeks and I only paid $2000. for it. I live in northern IL so I really wasn't expecting much. To be honest I'm having a good time working on it.

 

Hey you cant beat that. I almost bought a 94 rc 3.9 5 speed last week for 800.00 had almost 200k on it tho and engine had a slight knock I figured work beater. I would of got it if it had the 5.2 in it but it had some bed rust, needed brakes,shocks and tires

 

HAah...I just did my plugs...took about an hour...and that was being meticulous about it...Of course, its not a salt-intense truck like Ill. My dad lived outside Chicago with his '57 chevy..its like a flinstone car now..so sad...

 

That is sad.

 

It is...but, with a few dollars, It'll be back to normal...just got to find that money tree!!

 

When you find that money tree I'll come down and help you with the harvest.
