I did my exhaust yesterday, changed the oil with Castrol GTX HM and a WIX filter today and put on some new plug wires. Ive got new plugs but cant put em in yet. Stupid rain. I have a question. Im gonna change my upper and lower rad hoses, What coolant do i need to get to refill the system? The green stuff? or wha? I obviously dont wanna mix 2 different coolants. I heard it can form a gel.. I checked the owners manual but all it says is use ethylene glycol coolant. Which, from what i read its pretty much all ethylene glycol. So, what the heck do i need to get? I had some prestone 50/50 (green) in my hands but figured id ask you guys first before getting anything. Here's the thing, yea i can look down in the reservoir and check. but dam if i cant tell lol I must be blind.

Well, after all this is done. Im going to the parts store and getting a goodyear gatorback belt. Best belt ever made!

Checked on my engine its looking good. The guy is even gonna paint it now for me. Less bull**** I gotta do the happier I am.

Then I picked up my dash bezel that the dealer broke over a year ago
that guy should gold plate it since he has had it for so long.

Didn't do to much. After 7 years finally decided to change my plugs, wires, and distributor cap. Surprised after so long the champion plugs went from .04 to .05 after 7 years and here I replaced them with the E3. Waiting on my Cold Air intake to come in only 2 days late. Droping the truck off tonight at the exhaust shop for gibson headers and complete exhaust overhual.

Washed and waxed. "borrowed" the g/f's carpet cleaner and did the seats and carpets too. Got out my 3815 and changed the program to Mileage XS. Got 2 trips to Syracuse NY and back this week. And then a trip to Binghamton Ny on the weekend. Thank god for some lower prices at the pump.

Posted a few threads and questions here. Pulled the passenger 6x9 and watched for cone movement, there was none and so I assume the amp mounted on the back is blown. Now I'm waiting on a reply for the wiring diagram. I also checked my fluids and filter. Filled the power steering fluid. Replaced the license plate bulbs and cleaned the bed out. Replaced the bed mat and put the tailgate cover back on. That's about it really, tomorrow I'm going to take this Infinity speaker down to my local audio shop and see if he can make sense of this amp and price out some Kicker KS 6x9s.
