    Not doing it today but...found a freeze plug leaking right over the motor mount drivers side...never smelled coolant or noticed a loss of coolant but its there. small rusty ass trail. so i found a nice engine stand on FB marketplace for $50 brand new with the 4 splayed wheels as opposed to the 3 wheel tippers. Picked it up on my daily drives in the man van 10 miles from home! now tracking down a cherry picker. Engine has to come out  brass plugs should be here from butler tomorrow. pisses me off as this is our time of the year me and Michelle rack up the miles/smiles. 2 weeks coming up end of aug begining sept...may just get a lower pressure rad cap and see what happens LOL  justa finally got rid of the new age GPS crap for speed and miles hanging off the cig lighter..

    I drive a Tundra, nothing to do....LOL although Michelle thinks the same engineers who designed the brake systems on all the cars we have ever had are one step ahead of us in employment. She says this because every single car we have ever owned has warped brake rotors. Of course she denies it has anything to do with her applying the brakes at full pressure 20ft from a red light or stop sign doing 50+ MPH.

    Speedometer correction after tire size/axle changes

    in Pontiac Suspension, Brakes, Rims & Tires Dicussion/Questions

    Posted

    Found this chart online and i found it very useful and so far accurate.

    i went from a 2:78 rear axle to a 3:50. changed tires from f-70 14inch to 275/60-15 in back.

    speedometer was always too fast figured i would play around and see what i could do.

    this chart helped me get the correct speedo gear and the trans driven gear for the dirty girl.
