  1. I tow with my 5sp wd21 all the time! I do worry about being too hard on the tranny. My utility trailer weighs about 600lbs empty, and it's never empty! I live/play/work at 7000ft with lots of hills. Your truck will pull more than it should, just not too fast! If you can be patient in traffic you'll be just fine. If not sell me your rig and get something bigger! Best of luck!!

  2. I don't advise buying a Hayne's or Chilton's manual when the factory service manual and very detailed guides are available on forums such as NPORA and NICOclub.

     

    Spark plugs have a 105k mile interval, and 173k is close enough. I'd replace them with the proper OEM specified NGK plugs. There's an excellent, thorough pictorial guide on spark plug replacement on NICOclub.

     

    Welcome to NPORA!

    FSM is available for free? Please enlighten me!

  3. Sounds like the trouble your having is with the evaporative emissions and not with the exhaust. The link you found is a great set of detailed instructions. Doing this yourself will save you a ton of money! You should start with the spark plugs. If you've never had them done since you've owned it, then they are probably due. This is also a great indicator of weather or not you should tackle the evap can! You should buy a Hayne's or Chiltons repair manual specific to your car(about $30). They give really good step by step instructions and list the tools you'll need as well as photos and diagrams. I hope this helps!

  4. Hi everybody. I've been signed up for a while but haven't posted anything. I have found a lot of useful info on here, so thanks! I'm sure I'll be on here in the near future as I'm getting ready to start some mods.
