  • Since the Ranger isn't running on all four cylinders anymore I decided I needed to buy another truck. I found this 1991 Chevy Silverado1500 for $400. Hopefully It will end up being a decent truck.

      A farrier came to our house and his dodge truck had so much rust on the body it looked like you could just pull the body right of. I got curious and looked at the frame and it was rusted pretty bad not the kind of truck you want to be driving

    Simple cheap fixes are always the most satisfying. If I put my car into a garage for diagnosing and repair then I'd feel I'd failed! In fact what we call this side of the pond the MOT test (annual inspection in US) I'd have a similar feeling of failure if it didn't pass that straight off. And of course we like to see similar people on TH-cam. Makes us feel we're not alone in this world!

Its got a 5.3l and its the Z71 package. Oh and it had a busted fuel line at both sides of the fuel filter. So I cheated ran some Fuel injected line and clamped it down and used a old Ford Ranger fuel filter I had lol
