Alabama thread!

Those both sound familiar, I do know somewhat about truhomes just know that’s one of the hville customers. You know Keith he’s the salesman up at that store?

 

If you turn the switch on while anything is unplugged it will assume what ever is not plugged in is not working and it will store a code. Take it to Autozone and get them to erase all the codes and if everything is plugged in and working you should be good.

 

So Ive been in Atlanta. Catching up with OVTunes posts I know I won’t go for this kit, but the TTs on the Tacoma that also come with a fuel system upgrade such as injectors and fuel pump hit over 500ft/lbs at 3000 and 400ft/lbs at 2500.

He’s hitting tuned raptor numbers.

 

@BamaTaco56 hey, sorry I didn’t see your post the other day. Yes, I live in Tuscaloosa, so Oakmulgee is where we go when we have a little time to ride around.

 

I’ve likely met him but don’t know him. Terry Owen is our plant manager and is a well known guy too.

 

I’m on the list but highly doubt I’ll buy the large kit. Already purchased the tune and it does wonders so be exciting to see what the twin turbos can do.

 

Cool I’ll ask um if they know him I’m sure they do, I like that bumper you put on your truck who makes that?

 

Southern style off-road.

 

Look up user names rome604. His truck has it and is same color as mine. Many great pics and his has the shackles light bar and winch.

 

I had seen it somewhere before but I really like it compared to a complete bumper replacement, what kinda winch you thinking about going with?

 

Likely a smittybuilt unless I find easier to install one. Just want to find one that I don’t have to do more cutting to my truck to make it fit.

 

I like my smittybilt it’s been a good one for the handful of times I’ve used it, always dependable. If I had it to do again I think they offer a synthetic line/wireless 9.5 I would’ve liked

 

I’m getting synthetic no doubt.

 

For all you Taco Bell haters!

 

I erased the codes with my obd reader. No codes are showing now but truck is idling way to low around 600 rpm. It does sometimes on start. On cold start it isles fine around 1000. But starts acting up again when it warms up? Not sure what’s going on.

 

If no codes are showing, maf is clean, and everything was reinstalled, I'd reset the ecu and ride around for a bit.

 

Morning bama thread!

Hope you get your truck going again. A coworker drives a camery and I think he had a similar issue happen. Ended up having to re-teach the idle (some sequence of turning the switch on and off and letting the car idle for x amount of time). Not sure if Taco’s are the same way but might be worth a google especially if all your codes are cleared now.

 

Morning folk. Can we get a law passed so that we don't have to come to work on Monday if it's raining when we get up? Also, Guess what's going to happen this Saturday....yep, more rain.

SATURDAY’S STORM SURVEYS: NWS survey teams have identified 5 tornadoes in Alabama so far from Saturday severe storm event.

*Pickens County (near Carrollton) EF-2
*Marshall County (Union Grove) EF-2
*Barbour County (southwest of Eufaula) EF-1
*Cullman/Marshall Counties (near Joppa) EF-1
*Cullman County (Holly Pond) EF-0

Thunderstorm wind damage was widespread across Alabama; around 200,000 Alabama Power customers lost service at some point over the weekend. Hundreds of trees were taken down.

There were outages in Lee County but not widespread. My cousin lost power in Pike Road Alabama. He's VFD and had to clear numerous trees off the roads in that area.

Here's a 30 time lapse that I made. Moved our vehicles away from the trees.

From AlabamaWX

RADAR CHECK: Showers and thunderstorms are over much of Alabama this morning south of I-59 (Tuscaloosa to Birmingham to Gadsden), along and south of a stalled front draped over the state. The front will move slowly northward as a warm front over the next 24 hours, and we expect periods of rain along with a few thunderstorms statewide through tonight. Some heavy rain is possible, and localized flooding issues could develop as the ground is completely saturated. Also, there is a low end “marginal risk” (level 1/5) for a few severe thunderstorms over the northern quarter of the state this afternoon and tonight; a few storms there could produce hail and gusty winds. But, the overall threat level is low.



Look for a high today well up in the 60s; 70s are possible over parts of South Alabama as the unseasonably mild weather continues.

TOMORROW: Very moist air remains in place… we will forecast a mostly cloudy sky with occasional showers and thunderstorms. Once again the rain could be heavy in spots, and a few flooding problems are possible during the day. And, strong storms could form as well; SPC has about the northern quarter of the state in a “marginal risk” (level 1/5).



A few of the heavier storms tomorrow could produce small hail and gusty winds, but once again this is a low end threat. The weather stays mild; we project a high tomorrow in the low 70s for most places.

WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY: Rain is likely at times Wednesday, but drier air will push down into the northern half of the state Thursday and Friday; the best chance of showers on these two days will be over the southern half of the state. Highs will remain in the 60s.

THE ALABAMA WEEKEND: A cold front will bring a chance of showers and thunderstorms to the state Saturday; for now the severe weather risk looks low. Then, cooler, drier air arrives Sunday with rain-free weather statewide. The high Saturday will be in the 60s, dropping to near 50 on Sunday.

 

If you could learn how to control the weather I would appreciate it.

 

According to the jackasses, we already do...



That may or may not have double meaning if you read into it hard enough...
