Update time! If anyone still cares...



Got a new o2 sensor in place, new coolant temp sensor installed, and new serp belt with pulleys. They sent me a belt that was about a foot and a half too long, so I had to return the one pictured and get a new one from the local store. Unfortunately I bought online to get $50 off my $100, so that discount was factored into my refund, but I paid full price for the replacement. Boneheads.

Then me and a bud went for a drive and I figured out that my phone can take panoramic pictures.



Truck runs great! Starts better than it has in a long time, and makes an appropriate level of power/torque. Also finally stopped being lazy and took my tailhousing off the tcase to re-seal it (it was leaking), and got everything put back together correctly.

Now it needs gears...

I have this phone. I really enjoy it, but after a year of owning it, it is starting to show some bugs. Plus T-mobile sucks down here.

Yea I went through advance auto, they have won my business down here because they aren't Autozone or Oreillys. And they had the best deal by far on my clutch.

An electric fan setup was supposed to be next on my list for the truck... what's giving you grief?

my radiator as far as i know is the factory radiator, and the tubes are starting to expand, if you dont know what im talking about, i can take a pic and post it up for you.

so with the radiator doing that, i cant install my tcp fan shroud i got from jasonw. so, other than needing a new(or used) radiator, i just gotta get a couple electrical connections, and some wire, to run to an ignition wire.

Yea if you could post some pictures I would appreciate it. Funny thing is with mine, I have been driving it for the last few weeks with no fan and haven't seen temps over about 200 degrees, which i saw with the clutch fan installed anyway...

On that topic my Agriculture 1 teacher was in the National Guard, and one day we got to talking about and the military and somebody brought up the Marine's, well I'm not sure if there's any history there but that didn't sit well with him, if I can remember what he said it was something like "I don't know why anyone would joint to join the Marine's, nothing but a bunch of drunks", in the most serious voice...

Maybe there was an abusive drunk Marine father, I don't know. I had a great deal of respect for the man but that didn't sit too well.
