  1. Took it to my local tire shop. 2 of my sensors were not reporting and the other 2 I suspect were original as well. I heard there is a 10year or so lifespan on the sensor unit batteries that are molded into the units and not replicable so I went ahead and had them replace all 4 and take care of the bead-leaks. Got a good deal on the sensors and installs. Have not had a low pressure warning since the install a month ago.
  2. new struts, new shocks, fixed a bad brake light and threw on new wiper blades.
  3. Had the pressure sensors in all 4 tires replaced and the slow leaks resolved in my 05
  4. Anyone ever replaced their TPMS sensors and program the system? I've heard rumor that there is a sequence that does not involve a special device but have not gotten specific feedback on the pathy. The searches have turned up Infinity's and Frontiers.
  5. coleman fuel. Gets rid of oil and grease but dries the hell out of your hands. Wash afterwards with soap and water to get rid of the naphthalene smell
  6. That's when you need the screwdriver removal technique
  7. I lube the gasket with a drop or two of oil then tighten it until it makes good contact (starts to snug) then I crank it another 1/4 turn
  8. did you try wiggling the connector on the top of your MAF?
  9. not sure but you can try ebay etc.
  10. disconnected the positive post on the battery. Got home yesterday and the stupid truck was squeaking and chirping. Apparently, leaving it un-driven for 3 months and being in the teens out, the battery decided to crap out/in/etc and trigger the alarm (which was a terrible sound with a dead battery). I opened the door and it stopped.... not enough juice to squeak anymore. Still waiting for my replacement title so I can get her sold.
  11. lol... guess your lock cylinder is fubar'd Has the truck ever been broken into or stolen?
  12. check your polarity. LEDs are very particular about which direction the current flows
  13. ordered a replacement title. Getting ready to sell the 95
  14. I have a factory one in my garage that isn't going back on the truck. It's in PA though and shipping would be costly
  15. I used my roo-bar to tie ropes to when I was rappelling out in New Mexico. Also worked well for running through brush but when it comes to impacting something of size, they do more damage than not. Go big or go without.
  16. check/wiggle the connector on top of your MAF. Always an easy check for something that can seriously F*k with your ability to run
  17. Van is running great. Gonna pull the coils and plugs and do a compression test before winter but I hesitate to even try to pull the 5 plug and risk the insert coming out.
  18. thanks for sharing your story. I'm sure it will help some other folks who wander in here looking for ignition/starting solutions.
  19. what stud? lol. no, the stud is there for the tensioner spring. no roller.
  20. I installed mine (several years ago) using the seatbelt through the seat as in the picture and there was an additional anchor strap with a clip on it. I fed that under the headrest and down to the floor-mount that is there to hold the cargo net.
  21. yea, I think they were 3 bucks each when I bought mine. If one broke, the other may not be far behind
