Just out of curiosity, do you get it oil sprayed before parking it for the season? I got an appointment on Dec 22nd to get mine done at Rust Check.

Its been quite the week , first no heat issue , turns out the thermostat went for a shit , the bracket that hold everything together on the thermostat broke , causing it to fully open , got that fixed . then found out that the battery doesn't like -10C , the truck wouldn't start . I have a new battery to out in tomorrow . all this is to be expected , the truck has 275000 kms on it , I bought it used , I guess soon I will have all the wear and tear items replaced .

Started to change the plugs last night.... Got the right side out & realized the replacement ones I got were the wrong ones! So.... I got to drive the '66 in to work this morning.... If anyone tries to change their plugs on a 4.0 SOHC, go get yourself a few (like 2-3) universal joints. I couldn't find my 3/8" universal joints last night and that made things really frustrating.....

Brought 'er back to dealership to have look at leak above pass side doors (for the second time). This technician said the entire weather stripping on the pass side needs replacing. So now I await a call when the parts are in. Fog lights are inherent in valance design I'm told. I figured as much. Seen my '07 Ranger on the lot in the used section, all polished up To think it would have been payment free in 11 months!! lol

I left my Ranger in the driveway today. It will sit there until I get some new tie rod ends installed - the steering wheel is shaking so bad that it has put my hands to sleep.

I added 240 pounds of ballast to the bed . what a difference it made to the handling in the snow . I now have traction . had to fill the windshield washer fluid too.
