    I dont remember much, eating a hamburger and talking to my friend and his wife for a bit. Other than that it was pretty much a cloud. Slept like a rock till about 2am, then couldnt go back to sleep.
    Edit: i turn 38 next week, and last night was the first time ive ever been drunk. Ive been buzzed and fairly close to being drunk lots of times, but never drunk. I guess i can now say she drove me to drink haha. Gettin back to my irish roots...

    NGK and Denso are what i had in mine as well. I have changed mine out every 30k, so at your mileage i would have changed mine out 5 times already :eek:

    I don't think so! I didn't replace any and it's running fine, so that's good.

    i did my in laws cherokee not long before she sold it. One of the coils looked burned, and so did the plug. put in new plugs, replaced that coil, and it ran pretty good again.

    Well it sounds like that avenue is now permanently closed which is probably a relief right?

    I wont be doing much maintenance anymore either way. They were bad to not take care of stuff and then ask me to fix it when it broke.

    I bet you don't keep in contact with them in the future though.

    Damn, my CB just died. Replaced the tube fuse, and the inline fuse next to the battery. What else is there?

    Its wired directly to the battery

    Did you check the swr? If it came out of tune it can fry it.

    Ill try to check that @stairgod thing is, its in a tight spot. Have to take apart my interior to get it out.

    @90yota its not turning on at all.

    Might just need to buy another. Ive been wanting to change the mounting spot, but i want to buy another interior part since I hacked mine apart. Behind it is a big hole, exposing the airbag stuff

    That's what I said but he said he didn't want to spend $100 on a CB. Should have spent a little more coin for quality.

    Im going to buy the same one I had. But i want to remount this one. I need to buy another center console piece from @TACOPHISH before i do though.

    Note, i did chop the wires to add in a quick disconnect. That didnt work, so I reconnected them with a butt connector. Might be part of the problem

    You should not touch wires.

    Did you buy a meter yet? Or even just a test light?
