I would like to know how often you guys open your hoods. My wife thinks I have a problem, because when I get home in my truck I open my shop door and pull my truck in. Now I just built a new shop this summer, 40' X 60'. First thing I do before I get out of the truck, I unlatch the hood. Next I go to the front and open the hood. Then I bring what ever it is I need to bring into the house. This is where my wife thinks I'm strange, she will come into the shop and see me standing on my bench looking under my hood with a flashlight in one hand and a Miller Lite in the other.

Is there something wrong with me, because this is every day. Worst on weekends.

 

Usually i change up what's in my hand, normally don't have a flashlight. But for the past few months ive been looking under the hood trying to find the leak.

 

my girl friend thinks I'm nuts..every weekend ill be in the shop all day with FTE and the TV on the speed channel..(Race channels very soon) at the same time I will be checking every part on my truck.. front to back..top to bottom.. she is the reason my truck has green eyes..she tells me this truck is possessed...

 

Hmmm...can anyone say "Christine"

 

WOW,,, Ron. I never seen that before. Looks good.

 

My neighbor comes over all the time whenever my hoods up(3-5 times a week) and asks"Whats wrong with it now?" My normal reply is "nothing, just making improvements" He is not a gear head, nor is my wife. THEY JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND......

 

i pop the hood at least twice a week (ok maybe 3 times) just to check for any leaks and just to look at the engine after being on FTE to se what you guys are talking about so i get get a better knowledge of the engine.

 

I gotta admit I dont check under the hood very often anymore. I used to all the time, but the oil never goes down, and nothing ever seems to go wrong under there!

I always have the speed channel on and FTE on the laptop on at the same time on the weekends when Im home too

 

thank you..I need to take another picture..I have new bulbs that make it a little beeper but brighter green now..there also a lot more invisible in the head lights then the 194 bulb in the day light.....

 

Which is the nickname my rig earned very early in it's life, a little 'glitch' that caused the throttle to go wide open if I happened to push the brake pedal and the 'off' button for the cruise at the same time!

I open mine almost daily to check the fuel pressure and oil level, I too have a nagging pressurized oil leak......

 

I don't really understand Ron. Are they green bulbs? Do then shine green at night? Just replace the old bulbes to these?

 

that and spike TV...there both good channels on the weekends..on week nights some time I lay here on the bed and watch forensic files..lmao..that makes the G/F a little freaked out....she will ask me questions like what happened to the kids mother i dont answer..just smile....

 

Some people are addicted to looking at porno, and some people are normal (you)!!

 

there LED 194 bulbs.. I drilled a hole in the top of the head light bucket. I then cut out a 194 hole out of some old tail lights I had..I clue them over the hole in the head light..put in the 194 socket and tap into the parking light.. with the parking lights on.. the head lights are green..the bulbs for the head light are so bright.. when they come on..the green disappears..the 194 bulbs I had in..you could still see the bulb lit up green at the top of the head light..and you could see it in the day time..I found some LED flanks since then..now I cant see it at all unless I look really close...it al so makes the green it a little deeper and brighter green ill take better pics of the mod if you like...

 

Geezz, the stuff you guys come up with. You don't have to go to the trouble taking more pics, I get the idea. You are just making my list longer and longer.
