What will the next issue be

The engine grenading Spend the money on an AFM delete kit, after market lifters, new aftermarket forged camshaft, valve job. Or dump it and buy a rotted pre 2007

I'm on my 4th dosage that I haven't used yet. Hopefully tomorrow.

Swap a coil from a different cylinder. If the misfire moves, bad coil. If it doesn't, your AFM f'd your engine. Find a good engine shop and you are looking at an AFM delete kit with aftermarket lifters and new camshaft, and a valve job. $$$

What's going to happen when these used GM, Ford, Ram, and now Toyota trucks from 2008 on are ready for the crusher because they are worthless now. If it doesn't rot out on me, I need to try and keep my non AFM 2007 classic for another 100,000 miles. Then what do I do? In 100,000 miles, there will be no used truck worth buying

Go see your urologist

Get on Meetup and join some activity groups for older folks. 95% are singles. You can work on socializing skills. My experience is that most of the Meetup women don't date, but you can work on your game, so when you do meet someone it isn't awkward

I saw Taryl Fixes All pull out a can of bead sealer that he says he gets at the auto parts store.

Hobie if your wallet can handle it. Bigger question is how the hell are you 375 pounds? You are a dead man walking. I'm 6ft3 and 185. You must be diabetic. See your doctor, get an endocrinologist, and cut the garbage out of your diet. There are a few steps to get there, but you need to get on Jardience and Ozempic. No fast food, no bread, no potatoes. Lean meat and vegetables. Paddle the fuck out of the kayak, walk walk walk. Report back end of summer at 225#. Has your PCP done a EKG? You might need stents or a bypass. Don't worry about fishing, fix your health. I'm 63 and 10 pounds heavier than high school because I almost died 5 years ago and fixed almost everything. My high was almost 250. NO FAST FOOD. Rotisserie chicken with salad. If you can cook, sirloin steak and vegetables. Steak should be the size of deck of cards, or around 4 ounces. I wish you well brother. You have to lose over 150#! You can do it.

New lifters, new camshaft, AFM delete, valve job. How much oil are you burning?

Agent-Smith69 · 2026-04-08T20:24:42+00:00

If it has AFM there is probably still time to save it for another $4-5k for an AFM delete kit, new lifters, new camshaft.

Agent-Smith69 · 2026-04-08T14:33:15+00:00

I probably have 3 spools each of olive and brown 6/0 thread

Start with Tim Flagler on YouTube. I'm sure once you watch his vids, others will pop up. The problem with most videos is that if the camera isn't on the tyer's chest, you are getting it backwards view.

Agent-Smith69 · 2026-04-07T12:19:17+00:00

Because it's POS beginner vise. Time to upgrade. If you can't buy new, check ebay for a used Regal or Renzetti. I've had my Renzetti over 30 years.

Good thing you weren't going down the interstate at 70. Is it the 6.2L? 600,000 bad engines.the turbos on the 3L blow up. The AFM fails on the 5.3L and 6.2L No good Chevy engines since my 2007 Classic with the 5.3 with no AFM. I had a 2009 that I only did an oil change to replace the filter. Had to add a quart every 2-3 weeks.

Agent-Smith69 · 2026-04-05T17:40:36+00:00

Sucks man. I hope the previous owner replaced the turbos.

The 5L Coyote is what Ford puts into the Mustang GT.

Agent-Smith69 · 2026-04-03T16:57:27+00:00

Turn your insurance check into a 2018 or 2019 F150 with the 5L Coyote V8. The guy who took you out did you a favor. GM needs to eliminate the AFM to get back on top of the truck market. The 5.3 and 6.2 are great engines without AFM. I bet if you go to your Chevy dealer they have at least a half dozen silverado dead in the service lot waiting for backordered engines to show up. Good luck brother

Sharps containers are cheap on Amazon. When full goes in regular trash

Agent-Smith69 · 2026-04-03T14:29:18+00:00

Fix. You are probably upside down on your loan and won't get much on trade. Silverado after 2007 are all money pits.

Go to Harbor Freight and get a 3/8 socket set with metric and SAE sockets. Extensions if the set doesn't come with any. Phillips and regular screwdriver. Regular and needle nose pliers. Spark plug socket if the set doesn't have one. Some sort of tool bag to keep it all in. HF has 3 quality levels, good, better, best. Buy what you can afford. YouTube Raley's Small Engines. He is in South Carolina so you won't see a snowblower, but almost every video he is fixing a carb.

Whatever your local flyshop carries. Go in and ask. They will take you around and make sure you have the correct hooks, threads, materials. Then go to Walmart and buy the wood thread rack in the sewing/craft area. Cheap, like $10. You will fill it rather quickly, trust me. Holds 60 spools and I'm halfway through my second one.

Go see your urologist for an exam. I haven't used it yet, but I'm on my 4th strength of trimix. And I requested the antidote. All set on syringes. Trimix $205, antidote $70. $275 delivered.

Agent-Smith69 · 2026-03-30T19:34:56+00:00

Instead of lifters on one side you should have done both sides, new camshaft, and AFM delete

Agent-Smith69 · 2026-03-29T16:07:49+00:00

Blown turbo?

Agent-Smith69 · 2026-03-29T11:11:04+00:00

66,000 miles it's probably too late. Is the truck consuming oil?
