-7 here.

 

There is a sink hole up in Logan Canyon, which is the coldest place in UT. It's damn near -60 right now. I got a space heater going in my office this morning.

 

And here I was whining about all the rain and the 40s and 50s temps this week.
This weekend is to be a deep freeze here though, so it must be heading east.

 

The weather guy just put this on FB. We have said for years that this place should be called "Peter Shrinks", not Peter Sinks.

 

I was thinking those temps had to be close to a record.

 

so 4.6 timing guy, truck is running, that tick he was trying to find..

engine is about to give birth

 

So, it's less of a tick, and more of a clatter, eh?

 

yep sure is

 

This was a 2V, as I recall, correct?

That's some real neglect if so.

 

yep 2V, this truck is ROUGH, guy was made well aware that this might not fix it, this repair is just to get it running again. We had to replace both chains, all the guides, EGR tube and related gaskets, missing the little spacers that go with the VC bolts, one coil was flat out missing, rocker panels are nothing but bondo
