This is a great place. I have made a handful of local friends since joining the board. You should come out to our local get together on the 27th. Gonna be a good time and a chance to meet a lot of folks.

you may want to run away now. This stuff is addictive :devil:

Addictive Sean?

That is an understatement! :lol: I call it a black hole. Once you get in here, you can't find your way out.

I've been lost in here almost 5 years. There is NO way out!!

Welcome! Like Gerald said, hope you can make it up to our shindig!

Thanks for the welcome!

I'll do my best to get out there, my 98 GMC took a dive and I am currently without a running vehicle. I live 2 miles from work, so that helps.

I think it is leaking coolant from the head gasket into #4 cylinder, and I don't drive it a whole lot cuz it needs a differential rebuild. I think it is time to put some stop leak in and drive it to a dealership.

:devil:

You may be able to catch a ride up with someone from down there and ride up if anybody has room. Just a thought anyway. Why take it to a dealership? I ask because if you want to get rid of it...I sell at a Buick, Pontiac, GMC dealer in Longmont. If it is for service work, there is many other good, more affordable, options to get it fixed.

Welcome.

Well, I needed to get rid of the 98 GMC, it was way too gone to save, and it being my only transportation since my '71's water pump died I could not afford to be without a vehicle any longer. Being a single dad every other week, I needed to get around. The GMC needed a Differential overhaul as well, it was making some noise on the highway.

So I did a lot of online shopping, found a '98 Dddd --dd--d---ddddodge online that was in my price range. Put some stop leak in the radiator, drove around for a bit and got the coolant to stop burning. Made it to the dealership, and as I pulled into the parking lot... The Check Engine light went out! I took that as an omen!

LOL so I will do my best to get out there the location is on the website right?

Ohhh and guys feel free to watch my Build thread. I am new to both body work and mechanical work, and am diving headloong into all this so please give me any and all advice you can, I am excited to be able to tap the years of experience you all have.

Thanks!
