    Been bow hunting the evenings. The 4R is running top notch. Will I tag a buck? Maybe during the rut. I used to see deer every day here but nothin this year. I would try another spot but it’s such a nice drive and close to home.

    Get some 01-02 front and rear lights on that thing and it'll make that desert dune pop! That 97 of yours makes me miss my 98.

    Wouldn't start.

    When running, would idle a lot higher, even more in park.

    Running rich.

    Easy fix; ECT sensor

    Anybody took their gas gauge all the way down? I’m gonna do my final cruise tomorrow, trying to get a fuel consumption idea. Sitting at 260 miles and no gas light yet...

    Went hunting, didn’t see squat, and on the way home a big buck (saw three points on one side) runs right out in front of me. Again!!
