    Colorado 4 cylinder diesel

    I can't say that I've even seen one on the road yet, just at the MN State Fair and/or the Mpls Auto Show.

    Drove a L5P today

    I'm hoping to hit the jackpot at the casino this weekend. Short of that, I'm not getting myself a new truck any time soon...

    Drove a L5P today

    I'll put it this way: I like the GMC's a lot better. You barely notice the scoop on those.

    Drove a L5P today

    I don't think they're claiming it gives X gain (I'm sure some engineer knows the number, but it's not been released), they're just saying it's an integral part of feeding the new beast. Which I don't doubt, I guess...

    Drove a L5P today

    I was surprised, a local dealer had a CCSB LTZ on the lot, and 2 RCLB's, all with hood scoops lol. Boy do the Regular cab Long Bed "base" model trucks look funny with the chrome hood scoop, IMO...

    Drove a L5P today

    I just bought one for my dad for his company truck, and they're dang nice. He got a LTZ Z71 with the painted grille and bumpers (much better looking, IMO) and it has the 5.3 and the 8 speed. It moves out, but they just went to MO and he got upwards of 20 MPG. I think if he'd have kept it closer...

    Frantz bypass oil filter

    Lubrication Specialist and Lubrication Specialties are two different companies, methinks.

    Tune up a 00 Pontiac with the 3800 V-6, replace coils?

    You'll need a fuel line disconnect tool, and you can try to replace the o-rings that are in there. Otherwise to replace the ends you'll need a nylon fuel line repair kit, there's a special tool to fit the new end into the line. Not sure how it works, but I think you can rent it.

    Explain leaky water pump and head gasket replacement

    I talked to our local mechanic and he didn't want to do it, but he said another guy had it done by a Diesel shop about 45 min away and it ended up being well over $5k. Is that too high? Dad says there's no way he'd spend that much, he'll trade it in first...

    Explain leaky water pump and head gasket replacement

    We had the WP fixed on our 05 a few months ago, and now it's losing coolant and the tank is full of pressure. Pretty much guaranteed HG's? What's the repair bill on that going to be? $3500?
