nah, my truck isn't completely ****ed, codes were just a gas cap code... caused by not tightening a hose clamp on my fuel filler extension

there is a thread in general technical that explains what my truck is doing today that makes me worry

lol forgot the other stuff

removed shell for a bit, taking the boat out a few times in the coming weeks and its too wide for the shell, forgot how much better the truck looks without it but ill probably need it back on in late june

the walmart shift **** that came with the truck kept falling off and i remembered i had a "civic type r" replica in the attic from my honda days ... so with some tightening on the allens on it went

stephen.g.fiddes · #**1403** 05-06-2010

^^^ dude, I hate my shfter arm. the **** always falls off, and the thing has SOOOO much play in it. i'm just gunna save up for a hurst lol

--weezl-- · #**1404** 05-06-2010

please hand over your man card... civic type r shifter on a truck...

--weezl-- · #**1405** 05-06-2010

oh, and how is the shifter hard to figure out? take the nut off of the right side, put it on the left side, and tighten it on, the whole bolt will come right out, once the bolt is in your hand, pull the shifter up

stephen.g.fiddes · #**1406** 05-06-2010

hey, I would take that over my shifter **** right now... mine is a POS on steroids

--weezl-- · #**1407** 05-06-2010

1) how does me having a nice shifter (vs your civic shifter) change gas mileage?

2) i will have fun... hiway speeds are awesome!

racsan · #**1416** 05-06-2010

i have a hurst-with a early escort auto **** on it. its simalar to the **** found on some late '80's mustangs, just has no pattern in the middle of it. ive tried all kinds of *****, and i just like the shape of this one. ive got a hurst "T" handle ****, its fine in the spring-fall, but way too cold for winter onths.

**GrafixGuy** · #**1417** 05-07-2010

I love my automatic :-)

Got 289 miles on my last tank. woo

Filled back up today

--weezl-- · #**1419** 05-07-2010

what does me living in canada have to do with the price of rice in china? and sorry for putting shifter instead of shift ****...

Melt · #**1420** 05-07-2010

dude just let it go already ... its well known you guys pay .75 to $1.00 more per gallon than we do in the us

**Scrambler82** · #**1421** 05-07-2010

BUT they also get the GIANT IMPERIAL GALLON, so who pays more !?

**Taylor** · #**1422** 05-07-2010

i drove my ranger to work today. sat in it and talked to my wife at lunch. drove it to the gym to pick up some supplements. I spoke to an old guy next to my ranger today.

.......oh speaking of shifters (or shift *****) i grabbed mine today to shift gears.

stephen.g.fiddes · #**1423** 05-07-2010

does your shifter like it when you grab it?

**Taylor** · #**1424** 05-07-2010

yes....especially when i slam it and jerk it hard

yeah i was having the same problem. Had clamps re-tightened on filler extension, and presto! no more code chunking. I hope it stays off....
