1st Gen. Lunch Table - General Discussion

Some here like tinkering so here is a parts taco

 

Is that covered in the recall?

 

No holes

 

There’s an 02 sitting in the shop getting processed for a possible frame swap... it qualifies technically

 

Oh I found a winner

 

Wtf is that, he ruined that truck

 

Good stuff there. I like this sauce myself, it isn't spicy but I love the flavor.

 

And just reading it tells you this guy thinks the world of that truck

For your entertainment purposes.

 

What does this do?

 

They’re for crankcase ventilation, the hoses go to the pcv and the vent

 

Nope

 

Oh. I’m dumb... ignore me. I think one goes to p/s and the other I don’t remember

 

It’s been a long day! Lol

 

The pcv is tucked to the side in this pic. The line looks like it is going to power steering pump

 

It has been a long day

 

I know the coolant lines are on the bottom and the pcv is on the side of the manifold but these 2 have been bugging me, don't see why. Starting to look like a German car, over engineering

 

It’s all vacuum for
Things. Trust me. These have nothing in German cars! And way less vacuum lines than Toyota’s of the 90s

 

Lol I'm still going to dig up what it's for. I'm going to yank those coolant lines and cap off. Gotta clean some things up in there

 

I just pulled some skirt steak out for tonight. But I can share a little with you guys. The Chimichurri sauce is the way to go and it's easy.

1 cup fresh parsley. 5 cloves garlic. 2 tablespoons of oregano. 1/2 cup olive oil. 1/4 cup red wine vinegar.1 teaspoon Diamond crystal kosher course salt. 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes.

Now you can do this 2 ways. 1) Throw everything in a blender or 2) take the parsley, garlic oregano and blend then add the rest and mix by hand.

Option 1 is easy and makes like a greenish juice that you can squirt on stuff. Option 2 makes it like a oily dip.
The ingredient list is a good base all by itself but or add peppers or whatever you want, it is flexible and you can screw it up and start again. Steak will never be the same.

 

That truck is the Hoopty Deluxe Jazzy Jeff Model. She bangin’ yo!

 

Thats good stuff, too. Herdez is quality.

 

Sounds delicious. I’ll forward this to my Chef. That skirt steak is all about how you cut it. 90° with a compound bias.

 

I’d say once you’ve cleaned up and neutralized the Rust with the Ospho, then go right to the grease rub. The mineral spirits could be skipped or substituted for the PB Blaster which is easier to apply with the squirt action. Let it soak in for a day or two and then do the grease rub.

 

Only bad thing about our trucks makes me happy about mine though. Mines relatively rust free

 

Yessir. Go get yourself 2 bottles of the industrial "big shot" can from home depot for 6 bucks and go at it. Youll probably not even touch the 2nd once cause those big cans last a long time. But theyre so cheap so just get two

 

Yep. Big Box serves up the big 20oz can for less than the Autozoned 16oz. My frame is due for another PB douse. I’ve noticed my factory recall spray coating done last year really soaks up the PB and keeps it gooey.

 

Autostoned sucks. Overpriced.. "would you like the dorman par-." shut the f up i dont want no dorman shiet

 

When I was much younger & very clueless about under hood, I came very close to buying a Jaguar E-type convertible. I didn't because it had the Chevy swap under the hood & just wasn't sure if that was good or bad. Still don't know if that was a good or bad decision.
