If it wasn't all inclusive, you should have said so explicitly. :P

PS Nothing wrong with our gun laws. Never had a gun, never needed a gun and don't hunt or shoot for sport which you can get licenses for.

What's up with Australia and their Internet "filtering" (aka censorship)?

I think he did flush it, but then used the old fluid again haha

or went to autozone and asked for a couple of quarts of the stuff from their collection drums

You may have an internal leak in your radiator allowing coolant to mix with the tranny fluid.

got any good news for me stosh? haha

well, i'm not mechanically inclined enough to find out for myself, so I guess my next paycheck is going to be going to the Midas Foundation again...

oil leak, gotten bigger over the last week.
Tranny acting up, fluid completely tarnished looking
carb needs rebuilding, or replacing, (havent decided yet)
brakes need bleeding. would do it myself. but the ahole tore off all the bleed valves.
new parking brake cable.... but that's not all too important.

im sure there is more, but I'm in too pissy of a mood to remember.

on a good note, i repainted the visor on my roof, it's now the shiniest thing on the truck

Not my fault that I need the truck working and not in hundreds of little pieces in my garage.... the sooner I can get it back on the road, the sooner I can get back to work
