    I have one similar in the truck.
    My boy has one in his tundra in case he blows an air pump code.
    Kinda sucks you can't go over 40 with the check engine light on and out in the boonies.

    Eggs? We are getting 7-9 a day. Green, brown, dark brown, even blue and pink. Got one with no shell at all, and one SUPER jumbo (that had to hurt)!
    We went shopping yesterday they had Scrapple in the freezer next to the pork sausage. Read the label. Sounds good, looks like another coronary event:rolleyes:
    Kabobs look great!

    Does it just read codes or temporarily clear them?

    My wife’s car threw out a CEL the other day along with trac off, drove normal. Cleared it by means of disconnecting the battery. All good since.

    Absolutely. I went with the ultragauge and mounted it over my mirror. Later they came out with the unit that works with your phone which would have been nicer. I can clear most codes with mine but a few I can not. Unlike yours which I am sure will.

    Kind of.. When moved my son his grill was falling apart and took it to the dump but I kept the tank which was almost full. That gives me 4 tanks now maybe I can keep gas in one of them LOL. Tried to talk him into a Weber and told him I'd even buy it for him. Nooo... it was too much money. 4 years later his grill-

    cody old grill.jpg

    Didn't even need the sawzall. Picked it up to put in the truck and it fell apart.

    Sounds like those failed SpaceX test flights. They call them a rapid unscheduled disassembly.

    Pick a shop, take it to them for estimate and let them deal with adjuster. That way when they get to work and find anything more that is needed, they can just call them.

    That last one didn't fail. It was cool to watch. The simultaneous landing of the two boosters was just showing off.

    Afternoon everyone !!! :hattip:

    Got my truck back and no problems found with the belts or idler pullies , they did apply some track bite compound / aka Pimp Juice to the belts though

    They did mention possibly some sand got onto the belts and pullies and that was making the belts slip

    The temp here is dropping fast and strong winds blowing ,I can see snow covered mtns which looks awesome

    Temp right now is 36° with a feel like temp of 26° .............. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr !!
