  1. Ok guys and gals...The plans for the 2015 WNY mini rally at Pioneer motorsports are completed.. Check out the itinerary for this event in the regional rally section of the forum.... the WNY group have planned a fun filled event as usual and we are looking forward to seeing some of our International guests such as AUSSIE ANNIE from Australia along with STARFAN and KBEN from Iceland who will be attending. Camping is free ....please go to the calendar and sign up for this event.. It will again be held August 20 (set up day) thru the 23rd... Hope to see everyone there.........
  2. Just called the Oberlin Inn......shortage of rooms...179.95 a night......NO WAY............gonna tent it .....
  3. There goes the neighborhood !
  4. Yep, had the radiator flushed, and an OEM thermostat installed . When my mechanic went to check the connection on the sensor, it snapped off in his hand. He had to drill and tap it to replace it....so far it seems to have taken care of the problem....he changed the oil and found no coolant in the oil ..he also did a compression test to make me feel better that there was no blown head gasket...total cost...$.221.00.. My mechanic only charges me 45.00 an hr. for labor cost... It beats $45,000.00 for a new truck...
  5. I have secured rates at the Microtel in Springville NY . We have a block of 14 rooms reserved .. 7 singles and 7 doubles. please see the post in the regional rally section for details...plans are still in the works for the rally...
  6. I don't know about anyone else , but Don is the only one here that has gotten me out of a hot bath at midnight just to call me an A--HOLE... over a bunch of bananas....I disagree with everyone here.... He is ONE BAD DUDE in my book and my feelings have been hurt ever since this incident.....and he has forced me to eat frog legs on several occasions just like the way my big brother used to make me eat worms...I say tar and feather Don.......
  7. THE ODOMETER cuts on and off, but its been doing that for a couple of years...that's a loose wire. I don't think they are related
  8. I am not loosing any coolant nor is the exhaust foggy, but that's hard to tell because its been really cold out. its not overheating...the gauge goes to cold then back up to normal ??????
  9. Ok I need help from all the motor heads.. I am at my wits end...I have a 2004 f 150 ford heritage , 6 cylinder 4x4 with a 5 speed in it (117,000 MILES ON IT)....my temperature gauge reads normal for a while(20,30 miles) then will go to cold, then back to normal, then will fluctuate back and forth about every 8 miles from normal to cold....I DO NOT lose any heat and the truck seems to run normal...I had a new thermostat installed about 2 weeks ago and all seemed well until today when it started doing it again.... I drive 30 miles to work. It did it once or twice today on the way to work but on the way home it did it about 10 times....I don't know enough about these things and an a little nervous driving it.. is there a sensor I should be looking for?.. Is it safe to drive? will I damage something driving it back and forth to work? Thank you for the help in advance....
  10. Looking foward to seeing you two also.
