Me likey QCL!! Looks mean!

 

^^^^ lol thanks. Shea pretty mean but not as mean as the wife.

I got all that darn wood unloaded and stacked. 2 cords worth. Should last me a couple of months. I use a wood stove for my heat.

On another note, im contemplating a remote turbo setup in the spring.

 

ya man i miss it, i bought a house in july and still yet to have a computer, only time i get on is my parents house. hopefully when tax return comes . looking at getting a 2005 dodge carivan because my gf has 2 girls already and my truck is not big enough.

other thank that after getting the house i went and got myself a german shepherd 4yrs old shes awesome and good with kids ! very protective !

 

Changed the oil and air filter today

Here's what happens to a Spectre filter when you don't use filter oil:


Replaced with pretty new filter, and I managed again to forget the damn oil, gotta go back to Advance:

Changed the oil with the following:

 

Ordered my double roller timing chain at Advance Auto today, as well as picked up a timing chain/water pump gasket set. Was going to get an oil pan gasket but my $100 gift card didn't quite stretch that far... Maybe I'll come up with some extra cash before the day I decide to do the replacement.

 

How old is your water pump? If the answer is "I don't know." or, "It's original." replace it as well, gotta take it off anyway, might just as well put on a new one.

 

Less than $40 at AutoZone too.

 

Put this water pump on right before my marriage which was two and a half years ago.

 

Took her in to Bill's shop to weld in O2 sensor bung on y-pipe and reinforce the reinforcment weld that that reattached the wheel assembly that fell off after I ran over a small mountain! Funny thing about a welding machine, having one is only half the battle!

 

Time to lube the front end up, it's getting squeaky, I suspect the idler arm again, probably should also tighten the loose shock bolt, it's been rattling for almost a year now
