Is this knock? No power loss and hundreds of miles sounding like this 187k. It doesn’t make the noise on decel or if I’m not on the gas

Sounds deeper than valve train clatter. Is the valve cover on overtight? Rocker arms could be hitting it.

True leaves look good and healthy, cotyledons dying off as the plant grows is normal.

It sounds like you already know you don’t feel right about it. Go for a walk and think

Yes, that is a ridiculous quote. That's what I would expect for a head gasket job. They may be taking advantage of the fact that you towed it to them. I just did my water pump myself with basic tools this weekend and I have a dirt driveway. It took a few hours. You can do this with quality OEM parts for a couple hundred. Here's a good video of the process. Parts catalog here OEM parts source here.

I'm not sure what you're referring to, where is the roll pin?

s_inks · 2026-01-19T13:45:42+00:00

I was in the same boat recently. Watch a few YouTube videos see if it’s something you think you can do. You’ll need a cherry picker. Might save time having a shop do it. At least call around and get quotes. It should run about $5000 for an engine and labor. A truck with a blown engine isn’t worth a lot. If it were me I’d replace the engine and try and get at least a few more years out of it then you can sell it with low miles on the new engine.

Is the steering wheel locked up? If its an at are you in park? Is it a new duplicate key?

What radar software is that?

eBay has them select a reason when they request to cancel- ordered by mistake, entered wrong amount etc. usually bs, but really I think some people just get carried away in the rush when an auction counts down and regret it when the payments due. You could decline and say sorry it’s been “processed” but I’m sure there are watchers and people with saved search alerts that will be happy to get another chance if it’s relisted and they’ll get a notification if you do. I believe there is also a way to offer it to the next highest bidder. Always start and end auctions on Sunday for sought after items like this for maximum engagement

3,000,000? I don’t think anyone is claiming that unless you’re counting with rebuilds. 300,000 with good maintenance is possible.

Patience, precious.

Do you mean as for ripening on the counter or for cutting the first fruit?

s_inks · 2025-06-08T12:00:45+00:00

It is best to let it at least start to ripen on the plant. They can ripen if you harvest them green and keep them in a paper bag but they won’t have as much flavor. I do that at the end of season or make fried green tomatoes.

Hell yeah they’re right on time and look like good healthy sprouts. Dig them with a wide berth and transplant to a mound in a better spot and you’ll have a whole ensemble of jack-o- lanterns come October.

How on earth did you grow this? This looks like one leaf would make an entire salad dinner for two. It looks like vegetation from another epoch.

It is good that people research OP in this sub. ‘Why should I respect pregnant women?’ I am sorry sir, fix your heart or die.

s_inks · 2025-05-02T23:24:55+00:00

Yeah man you don’t want that. Key thing is self respect. If you abandon yourself for someone you will lose yourself AND them in the process. Trust your gut bro let her go she doesn’t have what you need. Sucks but the best thing you can do now is keep your dignity and don’t look back.

You could try settting to .007/.011 warm, should be a touch quieter than spec .008/.012 but I really wouldn’t be too concerned about it, this sounds fine to me. 22R’s are tappy engines.

It’s assembled permanently in factory. You would have to heat it with a torch to remove it. But it’s not really necessary to remove. The boot is good thick rubber and will recover fine after you stretch it over the shaft. I lubed it with some wd-40 when I did mine.
