^Got the mix ratio, just don't have the Super Walmart. Our local Walmart you could fit in 2 BP stations (buyin stuff their anyway). The tractor guy, chain saw guy, weed eater guy, (all the same guy) sells the same stuff tcw3 supertech 2 cycle oil, according to the bottle is beside Walmart. K.

I re-read it lol

edit, picked up Outboard 2 cycle tc3w (Bobs Boats in town) and 8+cetane improver (already had this).

edit 2, also researching AR9100, a friction modifier and cleaner.

Around march I had the front and rear brakes replaced, as well as all four shocks and the sway bar end links. In june I had the tie rods and steering stabilizer replaced. I have also replaced the carpet, glove box door, the cup holders, and the trim around the instrument cluster. Also replaced the door seals on both doors.


Today I replaced a broken driver side rear view mirror, and I removed the crappy radio the previous owner installed, and I installed an am/fm cassette cd radio that came out of a 98 Dodge Durango SLT, and the best part was that it was plug and play, so it made for an easy install.

It's been dipping into the low 40's here at night. Made me realize winter's coming up right around the corner. The Ram needs new u-joints, shocks all the way around, a new transmission mount, new gas tank strap, and the front drive-shaft put back in. Hopefully after that I won't have to throw any money at it for a while. The first 4 years of owning this truck was awesome, didn't have to put anything into it. It's all caught up to me over the past year.
