Re: Leaking coolant - where to start looking?

I'll look into that thanks.

How would you explain the coolant overflowing and coming out of the top of the radiator though?

Re: Leaking coolant - where to start looking?

Possibly the radiator cap isn't sealing properly? I topped off both the tank and radiator and started the engine with the cap off. Coolant over flowed and hit the radiator fan and it blew onto the...

Leaking coolant - where to start looking?

Punched the gas and then I heard a belt squeeling and could smell coolant. The coolant tank (i forget the name not the radiator) was very low. Going to fill it and see if I can track the leak or...

This just happened today and my gear indicator needle seems to be off by an entire gear. As far as I can tell the vehicle recognizes all gears just fine it's just that the needle is off. How to fix...

Re: Welp my truck got broken into last night

So I get that I need to replace the lock cylinder but I don't get the WHY.

Re: Welp my truck got broken into last night

Can I get a lock cylinder from a JY truck or does that have to be bought new and cut for my key?

Re: Welp my truck got broken into last night

I meant on the inside of the door to try and get the lock to engage. The lock sort of works right now so I think the rod just might be misaligned

Welp my truck got broken into last night

I lock my doors

ALWAYS lock my doors. Just moved into a new place and this morning I go out to my truck and my door is unlocked. I just figured I forgot to lock it - which would be weird for me....
