    Normally I would kind of enjoy having something to do but with work and it being summer...i just want to drive the truck haha. O well. It takes the gal and I about an hour and a half to change the seal out.

    Noises! On a cold start up it rattles for a good second or two. The rebuild guy says its just lifters, etc but it has never been an issue. Then there is a odd noise while idling that doesn't sound quite right. Plus I changed the oil/filter and it looks like yet another leak on the timing cover.

    Truck goes to the shop on Wednesday to determine if it is a leak and diagnose the noises. Sounds like a damn diesel now days.

    If I were to ever sell, I would offer an option for wyo guys to take her. Truth is, ill probably just fight my way through summer. During school I don't need a truck or a car. Doubt ill sell it, it will probably sit in a barn and be deemed a trail rig.

    It's possible that I would, and also possible I wouldn't. I won't sell until I have a full time position anyways and that's a year away when I graduate. Until then it's saving my pennies and hoping she doesn't crap out on me :laugh:.

    That sucks man! I'm sorry you're still having engine problems and leaks again! I hope you don't sell it, it's still one of the cooler Tacos around town. Just think of all the miles you're not racking up on it with it parked. :thumbsup: See my optimism?! :D

    Yeah , sorry about the engine leaks
    This has gone all over the place , what bad luck.
    Once the engine was fixed , I was watching for the snorkel install going smoothly , but now we're talking leaks and possibly selling the truck ?
    Is there ANYthing going right ?

    I remember a blues song ..... " If it weren't for Bad Luck ... I'd have no Luck at All ". You must have been born under a Bad sign o_O
