It was hot as hell today... glad its over

parts: acquired (picked up in the 5.4 of course, that just got 16 mpg at a fillup) had a successful purchase from morande, cant believe they actually called me back and had it in stock


and the 6.0 has two codes, and the scangauge readings reported pretty normal values

Afternoon everyone, its so damn nice out! ]

Also saw that my truck was leaking gear oil from over by that rear wheel seal I had done awhile ago. Pulled the wheel and drum off yesterday, it wasnt leaking from the seal, was coming from between the flange. I pulled the axleshaft out, and took the brake plate off too, used some blue RTV on both sides, bolted it back together, hopefully that solves it!
