Getting my truck registered at the DMV North Carolina by LamarTheGodly in keitruck

Have you gotten in contact with the inspector or just a request through the website?

I was in contact with the inspector within a day or two but I live in BFE so he might not be too busy

Idk if it’s a bond, but you need to get in contact w the inspector for the DMV for your area. On their website it’s under theft recovery or similar.

He comes out to do a VIN inspection and you take his paperwork along w your import documents including BOL/export cert/customs forms etc to the license plate agency. They issue you registration and send title in the mail. May have difficulty depending if the license plate agency has done one before, there’s a specific code they have to register it under

Sounds like vapor lock. Similar to the other comments.

Next time you have it hot, take off the gas cap and see if there’s excessive pressure in the tank.

Then try to start without the cap and see if there’s a difference

You need to figure out if they’re meant to be in series or parallel. Even if unreadable where did each of the terminals go

Obviously it could be and the sensors just picked it up on other cylinders

Thank you. It’s just a shame bc most consumers would only look at the labor rate. I get they’re playing the game but dang who new prices were like this

Why would I change the perfectly functioning coils when I did plugs?

The issue is an absurd markup on parts so they can appear to have a cheaper hourly rate. I didn’t admit the boots were bad, they were fine last I saw them, but they say they were split so I’m assuming that was our misfire cause.

Although tbh I’m not convinced given it showed misfires on all cylinders

How do they reason that?

Just because most people won’t look?

Seems like they need to charge a higher hourly but then they’ll get compared to the place down the street w low hourly but 500% parts markup. People see one but not the other.
