So keep your smart *** remarks yo your self and be helpful or don't reply !
If it wasn't for smart *** remarks these forum would be pretty boring. Someone has to stir the pot or. I don't care if you paid $40k or $2k for your truck at the end of the day they all need to be fixed. Find me a truck or car that doesn't have a tsb and everyone will buy it.

I tried cruising at constant speed for over an hour, and then went WOT and I had full power! No shuddering! Not sure if this is just a coincidence, but also saw a 1.5 mpg gain as well... needless to say I'm pumped! I never did check the spark plug gap though, going to do that first thing in the morning! Thanks everyone for this one, hopefully I can get 30,000+ miles problem free as well!
When I drilled mine nothing came out.

Actually, it's engineermike's thread. He started it and it has been a tremendous help to many, many people. It was one of the few good reference threads on this forum until people like you and your buddy oldsmuggler showed up with YOUR smartass comments and ruined it. You and your 8 loser posts. Definitely a troll.

Do you have any idea how stupid your post sounds? "...spending money we don't have to fix a truck we paid 40k for." Maybe you should have bought a used Cavalier for $1000 and you'd have some money left.

I'm just stating that there is not any room for that behavior in these forums it is in fact tiring . I restore a lot of old vehicles and participate in the process of help I h when I can. And I am very appreciative of those who take the time to assist me. Collaboration is the purpose of the forum not to be Antagonized every time yo ask a question.I am first to admit I am behind the eight ball with this new technology and I thank all the guys WO do this for a living for helping out, hats off for you help!

I just ran across this on a different site for the first time. It addresses what I have been thinking about the water in the CAC in very cold weather. What happens when it freezes? http://www.yellowbullet.com/forum/sh...=554070&page=2

Holy poop juice batman. Volvo has factory oil catch cans, not sure if it would help in this instance though because of the location of the buildup.

Wow! Compensating just a little bit, aren't you? If you measure the worth of a man by the size of his wallet, then what does that make you? Shoo troll.
