ok...so i meant no harm by mentioning Veterans Day. I myself am a Vet and was enjoying the activities I had planned for the days celebrations. I didnt put gas in it. I have yet to do that. Knock on wood. I will jump on the injection pump tomorrow and see what i find. I will keep you posted. I...

so I am so freakin frustrated with this tranny gig. first off, thanks to the replies. so I just jumped back under the truck to button things up on the tranny after getting reassurance that the TC was correct. I go to put on my access cover and it doesnt fit. the bell housing doesnt even have the...
