I am not asking Santa for anything this year, but the Lord has already blessed me with an increase in my unemployment check amount, and a roommate will be here soon. Also, I heard a rumor that Santa is coming to my house early this year. Should be here about 3:30pm if his reindeer don't get lost on the way. Bringing me the Bronco in my sig!
No. It still only pukes is when it gets hot and I push it really hard, like by making repeated passes at the track (of course that could be avoided, but where's the fun?). It's never puked anywhere else and it's pulled more than a few long steep grades, but I'm not so optimistic to think that will always be the case. I'd really hate to have my luck run out when we're a long way from home, so I'm gonna bite the bullet and get it done...probably middle of next month. I'll have them replace the STC fitting with the one-piece while in there, and likely the dummy plugs/standpipes too.

Well, Santa's elf (AAA) was a little bit late, not getting here until 4:06pm, but he brought me a brand spanking new (to me) 1993 Ford Bronco. And it even runs! Have to figure out how to get the driver's side window up though, Don't want to park it on the street with it open. Also, Santa (Hanklin) included two bucket seats from an F-150 for me to install since the originals have bad armrests. Will do that tomorrow as it is already dark here now. Will try and get that window up too. With the heater and AC working fine, I can live with all the windows up, but it is way too cold to be driving with one down. Finally! Something to tinker with. I can't believe it is been over 2 years since I had a vehicle to work on. Thanks Hank!

No, he had triple A tow it down here, he has a 200 mile tow radius with them, so he used it to have it towed down here. Yes indeed it was nice of him. He also gave it to me. He said he was going to donate it, and then decided to let me have it. So I am extremely grateful to him, and happy that I now have a vehicle Thanks again Hank! U da man!
