put new front brake pads and rotors on.

 

Changed the oil. The easiest and cheapest thing I have done to my truck in a long time. Cost me a total of 40 dollars. 38 for oil and filter, 2 bucks for lift fees at the hobby shop.

 

mounted up the fuel injectors and thermostat to the new manifold. Going to tear out stock manifold in truck, and mount hughes plate on new manifold (if it comes today, if not today tomorrow)

 

On Saturday I ripped the dash out. Its currently sitting in the bed!

 

i felt your pain last winter.

 

This.

See thread for full story.

Sounds like one day you will have a fine running machine.

 

yesterday (sunday) finished with the cat delete (homebrew, same as AlabamaRam) and then drove the 250 back to kewanee, got one CEL about 50 or 60 from my apartment, pulled off I80 onto Illinois 78 with 12 to go, shut down, no more CEL?

oh and this thing sounds sweet now, no cat and only a thrush glasspack to muffle it

 

how hard was that?

 

not too hard with a 6 volt black and decker bit driver. there are 1 million+ screws and bolts to take out.

and if your dash is not cracked then it probably will be after this. mine had a big hole in it so i just snapped all the remaining pieces off.

thats the same setup i have on the camaro. it sounded like a stock car with just a straight pipe so i had to put a glass pack on. mean idle and deep tone when i get on it.

 

I changed both 02 sensors,had to order spark plug wires they'll be in tomorrow,going to do my trans this weekend tcc&od solenoid and sure cure kit.
