Thanks for the info. I will have many more questions I don't know if I am supposed start a new thread or something if I have a question. If I am please let me know.
But now, on to the next question which may be more relative I bought the truck with 126000 it looks like the manual calls for a rather significant service at this period I do not know if the 120000 service was done or not. I am curious is there a way of checking without just redoing everything?
It looks to me as if regular oil and air changes were done.
What about the k&n air filter, I hear that can really help the mileage and general health of the engine?
Regarding mileage I drove back from from Billings MT 785 miles at 78 mph and got 17.2 mpg I thought that was pretty good, is it?
Oh yeah, no connection to Texas: my first cow I ever bought was a broken mouthed skinny old Longhorn I named her Lucinda (lucy). We live in black cow beef country so the neighbors decided to call me ...you guessed it.
That was 10 years ago ...it just stuck...i guess dg.
