Thankyou everyone, time to hunt down that mechanic. Hopefully I don't have to show him my tires too (up close). My truck is my baby.:salute:

I knew that the person I bought it from had replaced the gaskets due to an oil leak and not done it right, then took the truck out and blew the heads by beating on it while offroading right afterward. I figured there was a very good chance that the problems occured do to that party being...

sry, took me a little to get back. I took them both off, and picked another up at a salvage place. I tossed the crack one out and had the other two both planed and checked out. before I put it back together. If i remember right, the blown one had a crack inside where the coolant and oil were...

I posted a few days ago about a oil pressure guage problem i was having, I went outside today to double and triple check everything. So i might be able to fix it by the weekend. Oil level, fine. maybe 1/4in low on dipstick. Power steering level, empty. (I believe it was trans fluid in there from...

:us: I have a 93' XLT 4wd, 4dr, auto... It's been reworked a bunch of times, I used to fix things i thought might go ahead of time, lol. I can't bring myself to get rid of it, probably never will. I had a hard enough time getting rid of my 91'. I rebuilt the 93's top end of the motor 3yrs ago...

i replaced the hose, I put a new extension between the modulator and steel hose from the front, (steel brush nope), it is an adjustable. I didn't adjust it at all. I'm not sure how to check the governor, but i did read a thread where you need to drop transfer case. I'm, sry when it comes to...

:exp: HELP! I have a 93' XLT, 4wd. With the A4LD Tranny. About a month ago, I went to start the truck and my keys got caught in the shifter on the column, and the truck half started and popped the hoses off the vaccuum tree. It's happened before. I went under the hood and reconnected them...

Thanks guys, I'm about to go start with changing the oil, but i'll let ya' all know what happens. I figure it's something just old.:us:

Ever think of an electric fan? I dumped my clutch and fan, and replaced it with a full electric version. Added some horses too.

:exp::us: MY (3' Was rebuilt from the pistons up about 20,000 miles ago. it's got 186,000 on it now. I've had lots of problems with it, but enjoyed fixing them. Problem Is: the oil pressure gauge is steady in the center while driving, but when coming to a stop, goes low and wiggles does there...

My Wife Grabbed The Shifter And Slammed It Into Park One Day While I Was Driving (She Was Mad)... It Didn't Shift, Just Slowed Down Suddenly. Don't Know If That Helps. I Had To Turne The Truck Off And Mess With The Shifter (auto) To Get It Right Again. Only Took A Minute Or Two, So Far No...

i had every problem in the book with my cooling system, I replaced the core, hoses, water pump, therm, belt... Ended up ditching the fan and getting an electronic fan and radiator. It did the trick. also added a crapload of HP. Check Ur Radiator, They tend to get clogged and screwed up.

Advance Auto (www.advanceautoparts.com) Sells a full kit for 112.00, Which is the cheapest I've found, and you get everything but the pan gaskets. As For the door locks, remember the drivers is...
