Ahh throw parts at it till its fixed type of guy . Save yourself some money and learn to trouble shoot .

 

That's why I bought the water pump. I replaced the pulleys after flooding my truck and I though that would fix it, so did everyone else.

I figure it's not the alternator because that's brand new thanks to my warranty.

So it's either my water pump, PS pump, or AC compressor.

Gonna go do the fan thing in a few mins

 

Stopped the fan with a towel. Still makes the whining sound

 

Does the whine change in pitch or volume when you steer?

 

Car washed. Windows cleaned in and out. If I find any more motivation I might do a little interior work!

 

I just did my interior.

 

happy memorial day man! thanks for your service!

 

Not that I can notice

 

Much appreciated. Hope you finally got a chance to kick back w/ BBQ and beer.

 

Prolly not PS then. I might be a little old school, but if it is a peripheral component that won't do any harm if it fails, let it fail, then replace it.

 

That method just makes my truck sound so horrible though. Oh well. Probably my AC pump then.

I'll listen when I turn the wheels and see if it changes sound. It's definitely belt driven because it whines in harmony with my RPMs

 

A big thank you to all of those who served. You guys rock!

 

Just buffed my truck . Nice and clean .. Did a little touch up on the sliders .


Now to clean the shop .

 

haha, on my way now!

 

I went out to "work" on the Tacoma and my last floor jack took a "dump".

After hearing the garage door shut "loudly" my wife quietly approached and asked if I wanted to go get a "New one"..... Off to Sears we go and Dam it .I love that woman ....She spotted a "Deal"...3 ton with jack stands and creeper for $10 more than what the 2 1/4 ton I was looking at...

Neighbors both drove by and asked if I was going to work on the"Mack Office" at home now.....

Needless to say...tires rotated,front spacers torque checked,greased ALL fittings,touched up ALL that needed "Loving Touchin black" ...and loaded all my excess scrap in the bed; pumps,rotors,drums & misc junk ...$$$ run this week..

Then we went to the local green house and grabbed ($$$$$) plants & flowers for her patio garden....

Life is good......My Sam Adams collection took a "hit" But WTH...they will brew more

 

Nice press! What's the rating and how much did that ding your wallet?

 

It's a harbour freight 20 ton . Got it last year on sale for $150 . It works for what I need done .

 

If you'd done a better job waxing the truck I wouldn't have had to ask

 

Ya that was just wax . I have a 2 day full detail I do once a year . But that is right before winter .
