I have noticed alot of us (erhrmm Frankie, Tom and myself) have been boo****tin in alot of threads....so heres a boredom thread for us to tear up...lol

 

cmon Tom post something here man i started this thread for all of us talkers

 

I am bored tha VAST majority of my post are from work.....

 

I work from home BABY!!!!

 

It is hard to keep up with more than two threads and get work done all day long. I still need to go fix my "Service Engine Soon" problem tonight.

 

I guess everyone went home. That's what I get for working from home. Chat tomorrow!

 

now im home too

 

Well, fixed my "Service Engine Soon" Light. Turns out it was the EGR Valve. I tried cleaning my original one but I figured I put it through hell so why not let it R.I.P.

 

lol i hate sensors...if it were up to me everything would be carb. those are so much easier to work on

 

AMEN Brotha!!!

 

To be completely honest, I was intimidated when I opened the hood after I bought it. Much different than a good ole carburated 302. But I figured, what the hey...I've worked on plenty of cars that I have never seen under the hood prior to being asked to fix something.

 

I do a lot of my posting in class.

 

hey Frankie i wasted a ricer this morning...lol it was an acura integra all riced out...he was surprised my truck was stayin with im then in 3rd i pulled out about 1/2 a carlength then 4th he wasnt gaining i wasnt leaving...i let out at 90mph (it was a 50mph zone didnt wanna push my luck) but i wasted him ....wo0t go 4.2L

 

i dunno what it is but id like to run mine in a 1/4 cause i was doin 80+ by the railroad tracks and thats like close to the redlight we left from i should measure it and see what it is but im betting it aint more than a 1/4 mi

 

Sweet!!! Congrats. Another one bites the dust!!!

Guess what...My EGR Valve swap didn't fix the problem. Apprently my truck takes 50miles for the computer to fully reset. I was told 20 and saw that the light was off. I'm thinking...cool. I fixed it. WRONG! So I break down and go to the corner shop and have them run a detailed scan. (Not one of those cheesy ones at Jiffy Lube that give you a P0401. That only narrows it down to four or five problems it could be)

NE way, It turns out it is my DPFE. I looked through FTE and found several threads on this. But no one ever mentions fixing it themselves or buying one. Is this a dealership only item? Typical Auto Parts Stores don't carry it around here. Someone Please help!
