1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

i will shoot you a PM later
thanks

these other 1st genners can possibly get a sigh of relief from my ramblings now

 

I've seen Chevy trucks in this series run better after they get a new battery. I've been an advocate of preventative battery replacement. I went through a string of Advance Gold batteries that would predictably short out at 40 months like they were programmed to fail. I managed to swap around a few of them by using the latest receipt. The guys at the advance store treat me right. I switched to Interstate with the Tacoma. Unfortunately, I don't have a lot of battery choices in my location.


Right now I have the Tacoma and three Nissans that all use the size 24F battery. I've been known to swap batteries around between vehicles depending on which vehicle is most critical. I like to keep a better battery in my daughter's car than I do in my usual DD with a manual transmission. I found a shorted battery will quickly ruin an alternator on two of the Nissans. One of the Hondas would light up every light check engine or trouble light on the dash when it detects a battery short like the ECU was going out. I've seen shorted batteries cause enough problems that I try to stay ahead of them.

 

Am not really hungry but I guess I should go eat something so I can take another dose of Sudafed

 

Exactly.. Looks like a fiber optic cable. I have an older Borescope that I bought at Walmart around five years ago.. It was kind of primitive only good for looking inside a cylinder.

 

That's why I like my old cheap nontaxable antique Japanese vehicles.

Arkansas collects a 6.5% state sales tax rate on the purchase of all vehicles which cost more than 4,000 dollars. Vehicles which were purchased at a cost of 4,000 dollars or less are not applicable for state sales tax, and will not be charged.

Then if you buy a new vehicle, you only pay sales tax on the sale difference amount.

 

I just made a really good breakfast burrito, like a dog I ate half of it way too fast, got nauseous and lost my appetite for the rest. 1st world problems

 

Nah beer and nicotine is all you need

 

Oof i do this like every time i eat

 

Like a goldfish

 

One of the strings of numbers end in 17.

 

I promise you it's super easy. I've pulled dashes out on Tacomas so many times. It's like a 45-minute job, and I bet once you've done it once you can do it in 15 minutes

 

Need to swing by the Chevy dealership today and get some more supercharger oil

 

Rotella T6

 

Yeap

 

You're in charge of Moab food

 

As long as all we want are grilled cheese, quesadillas and breakfast burritos sure

 

Nah gotta be this stuff



Surprisingly hard to find out here, Chevy usually carries it though

 

My cooking > @eon_blue cooking.

just saying

 

I concur.

Who's in charge of confetti?

 

I pulled the dash out of a 4Running at the junk yard one day just for the hell of it. It wasn't too bad.. The weather was just right.
