Well, the blue mule went down and will be awhile before she up and running.

Started smoking for a leak from under the left valve cover. I i was going to get fixed. When I found out I was going to have to replace the EGR valve to fix the cover from leaking I decided to to it myself. after getting the old EGR off and pulled the valve cover I found bright green coolent. I then tore off the valve covers on both side to find that both heads are cracked. I've decidec to replace the eniter engine (found a great price on line $1900.00 for a new engine.). I then needed to raise the money. So I parked the truck and bought me wife a mini van. I then drove her old car. after two weeks the engine blew up. So I had to fix her old car. now the gas price has gone trough the roof.

this sucks
