Oh what a morning. Mornin' MN folks.

Had the tach and speedo act up on the way into the shop this morning with my truck. Looks like I need to go rattle the cage of the dealership I bought this pig from. If the cluster needs to be replaced I want one with the Message Center in it.

Good morning Chris! Well that doesn't sound good. Hopefully it's just a sensor or something cheap but the message center would be nice also! Good luck!

It looks like there is a TSB out for it.

07-11-2*** STUCK OR JUMPING / BOUNCING / ERRATIC SPEEDOMETER AND/OR TACHOMETER

I just don't want to drive to St. Cloud and have the problem not reappear.

Well at least it looks like they are going to have some idea of what to look for. Have you called and talked with anyone yet? Any warranty for this?

I haven't talked to anybody yet. The paperwork looks like I have a limited one year powertrain warranty from Tenvoorde and it doesn't cover much. I may give them a ring tomorrow or I might just pick up a used cluster and have it programmed.

Is the 3/36k bumper to bumper expired on your truck Chris? I've seen guys get them replaced under that, but I've never seen it replaced under the 5/100k power train warranty.

Hey guys!

Hey Chris, that sucks! I have done buisness with Tennvorde and have had no trouble, but you never know. Hopefully they will take care of you.

Hey Lee, how's it going?

Well, I keep plugin away at the to do list. I got oil changed in the Freestyle and the grandpa car, but haven't done the truck yet. I also replaced the wheel bearing in the grandpa car. The salesman at NAPA said I would never put on the cheap bearings. I told him yea, after two bad ones I will never do it either, he said third times a charm, so we will see. I got the (newly welded) plow on the four wheeler too. Thanks again Troy and Dave for the weld job!

Hey Troy, I see you run a NAPA #6637. I might have to break down and buy one too. I took off my K&N filter and WOW was it full of bugs and gunk! I might have to run a pre-filter also to aviod those critters.

Hey Cory! Yeah I have been running those filters pretty much since I got the truck. I have one on my '94 too! I have always got them from Fleet Filter Wix & Napa Filters & Accessories: FleetFilter Secure Online Store Of course you have to have the cover too! TruckMods Have you got the K&N drop in style?

Troy,

I will not be able to make it to Jay's GTG. I will be busy with Christmas Tree sales.

Doing good Cory, but busy. Hope all is good with you.
