My truck to start funnily, in the way that when it starts, the rpms instantly drop to like 200 -400 and then slowly climb back up to normal? In the mornings it's really bad. Timeline of a cold morning: Engine is cranking-3 seconds, engine catches and cuts off-1 second, engine catches again and idle raises (with obnoxious lifter clatter...) When it's warm, the rpms still drop a bit but it doesn't completely cut off. It's NEVER failed to start after cutting off the first start of the morning.

Like I said, I seriously think it's the fuel injectors

It will as long as its the SOHC engine, I think. I'm assuming its the SOHC engine because that's what the alternators that fit our Pathys come off of. Or I'm just retarded and getting things mixed up in the head, which happens quite a bit actually.

Something on mine clicks like yours very rarely, and I can hear a little click from the front wheel when someone rocks the truck side to side

Uh huh... *nods head*

I like it. Kinda bright though.

That's come in handy on my buddy's Toyota

Ohh boy, mine did this with me for over a month. Drive it a while with no loss, then suddenly started randomly losing coolant. It was the bypass hose on mine, leaking sometimes depending on the temp outside.

Personally I think it's the fuel injectors being noisy. If you really want a trip, find a sweet spot where it makes the most noise, and turn on your BRIGHTS. On mine, the noise changes tone and sometimes goes away. lol.

Lol mines always done that

Yeehaaw!

x2 to what GG said

I need to get to the store and get some brake cleaner, but it stopped leaking besides a drop or two overnight I think I would have to fill the diff back up for it to leak again

Ohh, haha.

Why does a 31" tire actually measure out to be about 29.5-30" ??? And a 33" be a 31" ??? How do they measure them from the factory? My buddy's Bronco II has 33" Baja Claws on it, and from the ground up they measure exactly 31" and mine measure 30". Because if his tires measure what they do...and the Pathy comes stock with 31s...

James. The girls call me Jamesie I was mad, but I wasn't mad at the same time. I was mad until a while of seeing peoples expressions when they read what is wrote driving by, I let it go and started laughing. Took about 5 min at the gas station with the washer thingys to get it all off

Well the differential is still good, 4x4 is still working. Not going to use it though. On the topic of high school stuff...My friend's Anna and Jasmine had a little fun skipping class to do this... I HATE PRIUS!!!! LMAO! Inside joke I HATE OBAMA! 867 5309 hahaha, anyone remember that song?

Yeah, kids these days ... Security camera doesnt cover that park of the parking lot. Thanks, I hope it's an easy fix too. My buddy with his lifted K5 blazer said he'll run the guy's car over if he sees him uncc, that's a pretty aweful situation. Sucks when it's your own parent that burns you. I'll have to watch that video today when I get home, school computers don't allow that kind of stuff I wonder if my CV axle is ripping its self apart, I'm hearing more popping and snapping noises more frequently... Maybe it's time for a straight axle!

The water pump is the very bottom most pully, and yes you can see it. On top of that there is a little tiny hole where coolant will leak out of when the seal is blown, thus informing you that you need a new water pump. A seizing water pump can make a horrific screeching noise. A compression test is very simple to do. Buy, or rent, a compression tester. This is a piece of hose with a guage at one end, and a fitting at the other. This fitting screws into the spark plug hole, which means you have to remove the spark plug of the cylinder you are testing. Once it is securely in place, unplug the coil wire to the distributor and crank the engine about 5 rotations. This should be enough. The reading on the guage tells you the compression. These engines I think run about 90 or so, someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Tomorrow I'm going to talk with security about it, and see if they will review the security camera tapes and see if we can get a plate number. I just hope the camera sees the outermost part of the parking lot where I park...

That makes sense, I'll have to look. Maybe just the force and a little nudge is all that broke the seal if it is the seal? I imagine by now the front suspension has been banged sideways, pushed backwards, forwards and every which way. Something's gotta give...guess this is it. Lol I rotated the new tires from the rear to the front for better stopping and traction for steering about 2 weeks ago... I'll check that tomorrow!

Much better looking, and very well done. Looked pro.

My rear tires are almost completely bald, i already tried driving it in 2wd the other day when it snowed here, pretty much couldnt go anywhere. If it was dry, DRY and cold snow I would have no problem. But we dont have the luxury of that here. It's all wet and soupy and slick as snot. It's gear oil, nice and thick and smelly like it too. The power steering fluid is on the other side anyways. Nope, two totally different fluids. I do have a slight power steering leak though, had it since I've bought it. It's around all the hoses to the power steering fluid pump. Never had the incentive to track it down and fix it though... I'm hoping it just tweaked the seal and now its leaking. I also doubt anything could be broken by something like that, but stranger things have happened...
