1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

That plug looks fouled to me. Try a new plug and see how it does.

 

Oily

 

Agreed

 

Is that a crack in that fuel line?

 

Did one of these folding wheel chocks come in any of your Gen1s? My dad's 03 AC SR5 had two of them. There were none in my brother's 02 AC LTD, but I found this one at an estate sale today. As you can see in the top photo, it's marked "Made in Japan" just like my dad's.

 

thats cool, i havent found one in my truck yet.

 

@JakeJake
How's your trusty side-kick's leg doing?

Not a standard gen 1 product. Maybe a dealer gift? Dunno.

 

Dale is doing awesome. He's off all the drugs and getting around great on three legs. We go for some follow up x-rays on the 23.

Keeping him calm and low activity is going to be a struggle untill then, but im taking that as a good sign.

 

Tell that greedy lil dude to share the goods man!

Glad he seems to be on the mend. How long does he gotta be cast up?

 

When our lab had a similar type injury with the same wrap and splint; we called her tappsy or madame taps-a-lot

 

Here's the one from Amazon Replaced it with a Rostra from Rock Auto and passenger window started going both up and down. With the one above, it got to the point where it only went down, but not up. Who knows??!! Maybe something else going on. Electrical can do strange stuff.

I've already replaced both of the window regulators on the driver's side. The front seemed to last a month and the window seemed to go up and down "too quickly" prior to failure. Weird. Anyway, thanks for the comments. Know we're not working on Mazdas here

 

Handsome pooch

 

I appreciate the mention, it really is a nice compliment. However, I'm not a mechanic and my main weedeater is a 4 stroke

I've actually had bad experiences with chainsaws. Client "paid me" with two I've had in the shop several times, enough times I'd been better off working that job for free!

I read through some of the replies, definitely better experienced guys on here than me.

Come to think of it, I need to get my one chainsaw out and get her going, I have a big tree limb removal job coming up and need to get ready for that. (It's such a large limb it's bigger than most trees).

 

My dad had one do that. He taught me to always be wary around a battery which I am plus I won't do anything with one without safety glasses on. Basically, I don't do anything at all without safety glasses on. Even just a windy day gets something in my eye!

Back in the saddle again. Almost hit a turkey but it's okay since the bike is running like a top.

 

@BigTuna8695

 

Certainly very clean looking.

Personally, I have no interest in 2wd trucks. That one is 2wd right?

 

"Almost hit a turkey"..... really did laugh out loud on that one. Turkeys are heavy birds! Hard-to-kill (with shotgun blasts to the head even) and they look like B 52's trying to take off. LOL

 

The turkeys around here are super small, even the Toms. They never move until the very last second

 

Oh? I know deer vary in size across different regions of the US so I believe you.

My mother hit a turkey with her car once. Thing nearly buzzed her driving her 1988 Honda Accord. It hit the very top of the windshield, denting the metal trim then flipped over the roof. A bit lower and it might have gone through the glass, possibly killing my parents given that particular stretch of road.

 

Honestly I dont know.

The Google machine says 6-12 weeks and in that case I may be the one who needs to be medicated

We should know at this next checkup if we avoided surgery and what the next step is.

 

The turkeys here are introduced and not native, they were introduced in the 90's but the population has been exploding over the last 10 years. They are the Rio Grande sub-species and the original stock came from Texas. There was a turkey native to California, but it went extinct a long time ago.

Their habitat here is mainly oak forest and chaparral ranch lands. There's not any farms or corn in their region, which is a big reason they don't get as big.

 

so what happened? Jump off the roof of your truck?
