What did you do to your truck today?

[nubuilder]

Nothing. Has been sitting since Saturday. Maybe get to the oil change and flushing the radiator tomorrow.

What are you going to use to flush it, Lee?

Not sure yet. Still need to go to the parts store and see what they have. I have noticed that it is leaking on the drivers side some where but not sure where. Might end up taking it out and getting it fixed or getting a different one.

I've used the Prestone flush stuff on my Silvy with no problems. I ran two bottle of it in the system at once (I think), ran it, then drained, filled with distilled water, ran it, drained, and finally filled with anti-freeze first (what I needed for a 50/50 mix) and then topped it the rest of the way off with distilled water. That way you make sure all the anti-freeze is in before adding the water.

The downside to flushing is that you usually break some rust/corrosion free and possibly make another leak. In my case, the waterpump decided to start leaking through the weep hole a week later.

Thanks for the info Matt. But I am guess after I flush it it will be leaking more. So I will end up getting a diffrenet one.

Pretty good so far. Gonna tow with the truck later this week and already have a short list of stuff each needs to be bought.

I'm ready to start doing performance mods to the truck but I gotta see how work will go first. Our place is so close to the office that if I'm gonna be in town for a while I might get a small bike. But i could be traveling early.

Small stuff first. Both need new 3rd brake lights (hoes is led and mine doesn't match the 08 tails). Hoe needs a radio and tires this fall and the truck needs a backup cam and then it's gonna get gauges and studs

Sounds like a good starting point.
