    This is just sinful. SH!%*Y

    We also had a 96 S10 4.3l vortec. It would out run the blazer, but pretty close. I know that because we'd race each oth I've raced an 88 4.3l blazer alongside a 96 4.3l vortec S10 pickup, and the pickup would get it. Much smoother getting it, too. Lol....

    Has this truck been painted before? Gas tank overspray, 87 K10.

    I need to remove mine, too. PO sprayed over them. Heh. And half of the paint didn't stick. Might have to try the stripper.

    Power Door Lock Issues (resolved)

    Yep, once I started pulling shit out, I could see insulation cracks on the wire between the boot and cab. The other wires don't look like the grey and brown set, though.

    Exactly. I had an 88 blazer with a 4.3l Great little blazer, too.

    Rotary Tools (Dremel)

    Hmm......I'll check that just to be sure, but I've never seen anything but 120 on my system.

    Rotary Tools (Dremel)

    I have one of those, too. I have no idea how it hasn't blown up. I even had a regulator leak and it would cycle every 45mins or so if I left it on. I forgot to shut it off once and went away for the weekend. That was like 2yrs ago. It's unstoppable.

    Rotary Tools (Dremel)

    Lol.... No, I don't store it in a lake. The only time it sees water is when I put it in the dishwasher to clean it. I really do need to hit up some yard sales, though. I used to enjoy them, but haven't been to one in years.

    Rotary Tools (Dremel)

    Maybe it's just luck. Or Dremel quality has gone to shit. I'd believe either. I just bought another cheap 4" electric angle grinder (just so I wouldn't have to change wheels) and the POS won't even turn on. Lol...

    Rotary Tools (Dremel)

    That's the dumb part, it's all light duty stuff. I was opening up the cracks in my dash pad when I burned this last one up. 15mins tops using a cutter and sander on foam and vinyl. I've used it in the past for deburring stuff, drilling small holes, etc. Nothing heavy at all. I have grinders and...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Hell yeah, man. That's a great deal all around. Lol

    You got hooked up then. I like Purolator filters, too. All I use for oil. I'll have to look in to this.

    Rotary Tools (Dremel)

    That's an option. I've never gotten an extended warranty until last night, actually. Paid $6 for a 2yr extended warranty on a big battery charger from Walmart. With the way quality has been, I can almost guarantee that I'll use it.

    Maybe I'm just having bad luck? Did you get the Dremel one or just whatever?

    Rotary Tools (Dremel)

    So what are you all using? Any recommendations? I had a super cheap corded one years ago that lasted me a few years. When it quit, I decided to go with a cordless Dremel because dremels are supposed to be better than cheapos. Well it wasn't (gutless and the battery only lasted about a year), so...

    Stainless cab visor SOLD

    I'm over here in PA practically drowning in yuengling. It's always interesting hearing about people elsewhere who like it. It comes up pretty regularly, actually. If you ask for a lager in a bar here, they'll give you a yuengling. I remember premium in the 16oz returnables back in the day. Boy...

    I love that feeling when you solve a problem and a noise goes away. lol So what filter did you end up using?

    Oh yeah, I can't argue that. Looks like you're about to flip it trying to do a burnout. Lol

    There was a lot going on back then. Remenber Dodge had Mitsubishis. My friend's dad had a Dodge Raider/Mitsubishi Montero. That was a neat little truck. Capable and reliable. My other friend bought an early 80s(?) Dodge Colt GT in high school. Like $200, and him and another buddy went halves...

    Nothing wrong with sport bikes. I'm older than you, and I still have an older CBR1000 sitting on my front porch right. Some people just wanna to go fast. :D

    Probably true. Mazda made the best fords ever built, though. :D And yes, the sprint. My geography teacher had a white turbo. He was a cool dude. Used to play his guitar and sing CCR after class a lot. You should have seen him get in to proud mary. lol

    Yeah, they sucked. Everything was like......tinny. Like thin and cheap. My Honda Civic was even light-years ahead as far as finish and ride

    Kick Panel Speaker

    Haha....thats sweet! I actually have a box out in my shed. It was in my buddy's Jeep when he rolled it. I had forgotten about them because it was years ago. I don't think it'll fit in the square, but maybe I could get the speakers. They're 10 or 12. Never heard of Hertz. I'll check them out...

    Funny, I had a 5sp 87 accord (I think I mentioned doing the timing belt in a fast food parking lot). And my gf in high school called me and told me she bought a new (to her) car. I asked her what it was and she said "a Chevy Nova?". I get excited and say I'll be right over, thinking it's a...
