Please let the adults talk and go to paltalk or myspace and have some fun. Enjoy youth while you can and quit wasting your time talking to ol farts like us.

you can search google for the pictures of the smileys. then just hit the yellow formatting box in the toolbar at the top of the text box where you write your replies, and then it puts the IMG hang tags around the image. i get my smilies from other message boards...

kdhannink can you give us some more specifics about the truck?
Is it your's? Or does somebody else own it and you are trying to help get it repaired?
No throttle response has been mentioned earlier. Can you extrapolate a little more?

I love it, no one got offended and good ol Kwik was here to keep it on track. What is the pigeons all about, your not Bert. Your pic should be an eagle or an owl they kinda go with your truck look. You need an eagle head in front of your pinstripes. Thanks kwik for being just an overall good guy.

Tod, he wants nothing but food. I applaud your patience, but let it go.
JR probably owns nothing and knows less.
I think it is time for a moderator to shut this down.

Does it only do it going down hills? Or is it all the time....if your in 6th gear and floor it...your putting alot of stress on that engine and the clutch. Maybe the clutch is going out? How long did you hold the peddle down for?
