So i'm driving home, using my blinker i turn right... then need to turn left to i hit my blinker down and I notice that the light on the cluster isn't blinking..
So i get out and see if the front light is stuck on.. no light.. look in the back.. no light.. I then check to see if the other side works.. works fine..

bad ground? Or what? I checked the blubs and they were fine but had some extras so I stuck them in.. no change..

Why is the cluster stuck light on? why aren't the other lights working?


mhmmmm,
:aykm:

Only time I have ever had the turn indicator not blink was when I had the wiring wrong at the lights.

Got it taken care of.. The front was a bad connection, and the back was a bad light holder. Not bad just rusty. Sanded it a little and fix it.

I find it odd the cluster blinker light just stayed on instead of blinking.

Any who all better.
Well kinda. My side markers have never worked but are connecte.. Properly?? Not sure.
Must not be if they don't work.
I don't like the side maker lights anyway.

They're upside-down. That's why they don't work.

Take them out. Put new bulbs in them. Install correctly.

I don't know what the fuck this guys deal is...
Almost three months now and no block..

I got back from D.C a few days ago and stopped by the shop..

He told me that he had another rush order from a car dealership, McCurley over here in the tricites.

I don't want to give him a hard time but i want to say something.
But being that he's going to be working on my block I don't wanna say the wrong thing.


Pissen me off haha

I don't want to get pissed...


I mean he couldn't even get the pistons on the rods??!!
I don't want him to see my frustration just so he doesn't rush my block and fuck it up.
Or just be a dick and fuck it up.. I would have took it another place but... Not to many places...

The story he told me was he had my block set ready to be bored and that's when he got a rush call... That's the second time he's told me this... I haven't gave him any money just so you guys know.. The bore and the pistons he said the cost would be around 300$

But I'm thinking 200 is a better price after waiting three months... Fuck or more...

On a good note my truck runs like a fucking champ!!!

I took a buddy for a ride today after work just around the block... I'm not lying... He thought I had a V8 I mean he must not know cars very well...
He loved it! And really wanted it after I told him it was a 4 banger with carbs..

I didn't even get on the gas really.

Negative. used to have a video code listed, but it was removed. I thought the new auto video embed would pick it up, guess not. maybe time for an update? Haven't checked board settings in a while.


*/****edit

the auto video embed supports pretty much anything but photobucket :rofl: It says MP3s it will, but yours is mp4. go figure. Sorry man
