    like a flower in the dump

    I got a kick out of this : another customer sees my truck at the mechanic's. All around is a sea of OD green and tan MVs in various states of restoration / repair. In the middle is my Blazer, bright red. : "Its like a flower at the dump" he says . I like it 8<)

    Blazer front axle seals replaced...oh my

    I'm glad I didn't do it myself....those seals are wayyyyy in there. Just about everything has to come apart to R&R them. Kind of a dumb design. And alot of dirt comes out of those tubes. But now one more leak is fixed and I am happier with the truck. Tranny fluid leak is next.

    crud in the fuel tank

    So I started out with the newly aquired truck with a new fuel filter. 500 miles later the truck quit running. The filter was full of crud. Replaced it. Next day it quit running again. Filter plugged up again. Dropped the tank, rinsed out, blew out the lines, new filter, rebuilt injector pump...

    pretty decent fuel mileage I'm thinkin'
