oh ya, my parents make me keep it out side but atleast it's covered under our deck so it ain't so bad. My other truck is in the garage as well as their trucks.
How much should it cost?
Does it install in a freez plug?
Does the 300 have freez plugs?(never had one apart yet from what i can see it doesn't)

I don't have any of those answers, but I heard one guy said he had trouble with it leaking.
That's certainly something you need.

ya i might just do with out it my choke works fine
found out why i had such a problem starting it this morning
i just though it didn't like the cold 40 deg weather. when i got home after school and made my usual rounds on the belts hoses wireing i saw the aircleaner's nut was just on top of the cleaner and no stud sticking through. It had worked it self down to the last of its threads and about 7/8 of it was blocking the choke from closing and letting me have a good start.

Thanks for the help though
