I Spy A Cool GM Truck

It drove right in front of me It had nice wheels and I realized after I said "That's exactly what I want next", that I actually said it out loud and didn't just think it...- JamesSam

What have you done to your square lately??
Nope, nothing in the box but the module and the conducting lube. And, I threw the invoice out already. -
What have you done to your square lately??
Since clearing my code 42, I have driven it twice with no check engine light, or issues however I am anticipating it again eventually. I finally got my ignition control module, which was a first impulse purchase after seeing code 42 and researching what is involved. I also got my MAP sensor... -
I Spy A Cool GM Truck
Cool orange OBS. They had a play on hunting with the grill wrapped in camouflage. Or maybe someone makes grills with special color combos/camouflage. 2nd pick is terribly out of focus. I wanted to catch the camo but the Pic doesn't show it well. Looks like they just hit the big box store.- JamesSam

What have you done to your square lately??
Jumped ports A and B turned ignition on, just for fun, 3 code 12's and then code 42. Was hoping it would only give back code 12 miraculously. I then cleared code 42 via disconnecting the negative battery cable. Reconnected, jumped the ports, code 12 only, no codes. Took it for a quick run... -
What have you done to your square lately??
So looking to grab a new ICM for under the distributor cap to begin fighting off code 42. Should I hold out and order AC Delco? Or Delphi? Or Accel? I think I want to go with AC Delco but was hoping one or two of use guys could tell me experience with Delphi, or Accel? Other brands you all have... -
What have you done to your square lately??
Anybody have an experienced suggestion on where to start? I would really like to dive in to a "closer to direct" area of the electronic spark system to save time. I would love to go through every procedure in the repair manual, but, if I could save several hours/days/weeks/months, that would... -
What have you done to your square lately??
Cranked it and let it warm up while I planned to dust the pollen off and move my wife's car. I dusted the truck and as soon as I got in my wife's car the thundering idle stopped suddenly like I turned the ignition off, but I didn't. I ran to the cab and the check engine light was on. Immediately... -
What have you done to your square lately??
Gonna grab some 1/2 in. split loom on the way home from work tomorrow. I am thinking two or three, 6 in. sections would tidy those wires up for a better look. @CoggedBelt75 your engine bay is immaculate. I will try to get mine in better standings but, I'm not worthy! Lol! -

That's Bad Ass! I love In and Out Burger. My wife and I went for the first time on our "first chance to real honeymoon" in Cali. We found one leaving Sedona.

I Spy A Cool GM Truck
Recently, I've seen plenty of cool ones. The coolest I happened to see when unable to snap pics. Here are a few in their natural habitats I managed to catch: These seem fairly tame compared to the ones that had me rubbernecking, but cool nonetheless.- JamesSam

What have you done to your square lately??
Yesterday I drove the truck to work. About a minute away from arrival, I wanted to crack the window for a second and no movement, but I could hear the motor moving. Today I popped off the door card and as expected the Schwarzenegger bracket had wiggled loose and the gear was not gripping. I... -
