engine trouble shooting
Well , I got her back home yesterday and I am happy just seeing in the drive way. I am going to check her over tonight and get to work on changing the oil and running cleaner through . I am also going to check the PVC valve and all things easy first. I think I might have a clogged return like some has suggested. Hopefully that will fix my problem and I will pass on the new truck. IF not I am still in the market for a new 80 with lockers.
engine crap
Well after going back and forth on the engine and trying to figure out what the best plan is, I am bring her home to work on her my self I did not get any where with ULC even though they have been really nice about the hole thing. They just want to replace the engine instead of finding out whats wrong. I know with only 128K on it there is plenty of life left in her. I am going to have her towed over here so I can change out the oil and run some cleaner through the system. Then go synthetic all the way. But while I am doing that I am looking for a truck with Lockers to replace the LX. I have figured that it will be better to replace than to try and fix but I am still going to give it a try and see. I am looking at a 1995 LC with lockers. How about them apples.
We will see if I can pull everything off.
engine trouble.
just as you could guess the knock caught up with me. after cleaning all the gue off my truck after a week or setting . I was driving in to work and bam no oil pressure. So I limped over to ULC in town. They have said that I have majoe engine problems even thought I didnt want to hear it. At least not this time of year or when I just get the thing looking right. So After several days of playing email games with them I went over there and talked with them. We set a plan in motion to get in there and try and fix the oil pump and have a look at the head. That I could go ahead and do an HG and some other stuff while they had my truck. Not sure if this was a good idea or not. Only time and money will tell. ...
