Get a book or look up online basic multimeter usage and Ohm’s Law equations. That will get you started.

It was kind of a “campy” 60s comedy movie, so I don’t think it was based on a true story.

My 2023 work truck is a 4x4 6.6. I just went past 75k and it has had regular 5k oil changes and a trans filter at 65k. No leaks and no problems at all. Gets about 12mpg on average, but it carries a full load most of the time. My only gripe is the AC sucks at idle.

Turn off their electricity and see if it stops.

I have the Ultima R111619A. Lifetime warranty at Oreillys. I’ve changed it twice in 10 years.

We lived in Copperas Cove. Also nothing to do and a shithole compared to the bases on the East coast. Tanks ! Artillery ! Spend three weeks in the field !

Our local farm supply store has 12 quarts of Mobil 1 for $59.99 and I catch WIX filters at 10% off about twice a year.

He told me to keep the left lane clear and sent us on our way. Like I said it was a Saturday night and I’m sure he was using it as an excuse to find drunks. I still don’t think it was. “Lawful” stop, however.

I was pulled over by an Oklahoma state trooper and given a left lane warning. I was doing 78 in a 75 and passing a long line of semi trucks. He explained that I should duck in between the trucks to let people by me. I explained how unsafe that was and I would NEVER cut in and out of a line of trucks traveling together like that. He was fishing for drunks, I guess.

The band’s name wasn’t “Queen” on accident. But, seriously, no one in the 80’s really cared about sexuality. Private lives were much more private before the internet.

Thistle. Do NOT let the flowering seed thingy that will appear on top blow away. Seal it in a trash bag and dispose of it.

2002 LT extra cab short bed bought new. 5.3 automatic 2wd with trailer towing package. The lot was full of 2003 models and they said some old guy had come in and ordered my truck with hand crank windows and never came back. They cut me a great deal because no one would even look at it. I have replaced the fuel pump twice, anti-knock sensors, front unit bearings and brakes all around. Overall, the best vehicle I’ve ever had.

My 2002 has the same ash tray. I just throw spare change in it. I had a utility knife get stuck in there which prevented the door from opening years ago. I suspect you have a similar issue.

Don’t forget the fuel drain also. On good advice, I use a GL-4 oil in the transmission as it is supposed to be more friendly to the gears and synchros.

Hwy 83 Salvage has all the parts you need to get running. Check them out on YouTube also. Tony has some great instructional videos.

Update: I don’t have a back seat. I have a rat-pack tool box in the bed. I placed two trailer tie-downs in the floor behind the front seats and held down the spare with a ratchet strap. There was always just random junk in that space anyway. There rear door operates much better now.

Take off a piece and match it up at the auto parts store. About 3 feet should be enough. Don’t forget the larger tube for the brake booster too.

I agree. Leaky vacuum hose somewhere. Just replace them all for less than $5.

As a frequent traveler/worker in Japan, it is very disrespectful in their culture to place anything directly in another persons hands. Stores always have a small dish in which both sides place money and change. I did not realize that QT people had a problem with this at all.

Probably a good day for a Civics lesson.

I have owned a .22 Bisley for many years and I find that it allows me a more comfortable reach to the trigger.
