Welcome aboard.

Thanks,  What part of Cleveland?  My Dad Grew up In Cleveland.  Wickliff to be exact.  Me and my Cousins have had a good time on the flats. I heard rumor that now they are almost family like. :eek:   Not when I was there. :seeya:

North Olmsted if you know it.  Not a big flats person myself, but when I went down to the Joe's Crab Shack a few months back, there were a lot of couples with kids.

I'm from Cleveland too-and the last time I was in the Flats, I almost lost a tooth in a bar-room brawl.  Kids at Joe's?  I thought they didn't allow anyone under 21 anywhere near Old River Rd!

 

For all the Clevelanders here-where's a good Chevy truck service place?  I've been going to Tim Lally, but I'm not impressed with their service department.  I was thinking either Don Don's or Burt Greenwald down in Akron.  Any suggestions?

 

Thanks-Fitz.

Bought my truck from Halleen in N. Olmsted...not too bad really.  I work right down the street from Fairchild in Lakewood, so I've gone there a few times.  Fairchild always seems hungry for the work, so they tend to take care of my problems that Halleen brushes off...of course these would only be helpful if you're a westsider.

Cleveland :cheers:

Sweet, good to have another member close to home. I'd like to get a gathering together somewhere down the line, perhaps over the summer.

Not from Ohio, but Western PA. Spent some fun times in the Flats. Use to go to Columbus for the drag race Nationals. Anyone ever camp at the (not sure of the spelling) Kerkersville Zoo, when attending the Nationals? That place was crazy. I guess it's a parking lot now.

Also look forward to spending four days of camping and racing in Norwalk, OH for the Summer Nationals at the end of August. Been going to Norwalk for about 10 years now. :cheers::chevy:

You reminded me. I can't use the line "the house payment sits in the garage anymore" as I paid Blue off in January and managed to save up some cash to get a place built.

      Cold start Miss, oil in cylinder

      By newdude · Posted

      Its coolant disguised as oil.   TSB - 20-NA-166 1..3   "To inspect for this concern, add coolant dye to the system, run the engine through warm up, pressurize the cooling system after warming the engine to operating temperature (let the engine cool overnight) and inspect the suspect cylinder with a borescope for coolant dye evidence. At times it may be necessary to remove the head for inspection. If the head casting line is the concern, the intake port will be wet with a coolant oil mix"

      Can you sample the pooled liquid, enough to confirm it is oil?   ...That its not fuel or coolant.   Also, make sure combustion gases aren't entering the cooling system.   Simply put, either oil being pushed up past the rings (this really isn't possible), oil leaking past the head gasket, oil leaking past the valve, oil entering through the intake air path. If none of this is likely - it may not be oil.   What could be likely is the fuel injector leaking down. A puddle of gas would still smoke and rough idle. (Same cylinder has the same problem after injector replacement?)   What is the crank time first thing in the morning, when the puddle would be present? Does it seem like the high pressure fuel pump needs an extra second or two to rebuild the pressure that injector 8 may have let bleed off? Check the fuel pressure via a scanner prior to starting the engine.

      Good information!  I didn't know about the dementia aspect and asked for a general for my second knee. I'd heard that recovery room time is usually shorter with a general.   The anesthesiologist talked me out of it and I had the spinal.  Inconvenience and/or discomfort is a small price to pay for reduced risk!

      Navigating senior years.

      This is for those over 70 years of age contemplating joint replacement surgery involving general anesthesia. Even some 55 yrs. ago when I took my pharmacology class the dangers of developing dementia in the elderly that had general anesthesia were beginning to be recognized. Over the years there has been some refinement in the cautionary warnings, avoid general anesthesia if possible if you've had close to 10 priors, especially over the age of 70 and/or a family history of dementia. I'm not including the twilight anesthesia induced by propofol often used in cytoscopies or colonscopies. Seriously think about seeing a neurologist and undergo cognitive testing before proceeding if any of those criteria apply to you. Spinal anesthesia may be an option in some cases. I'm in the above camp and although I could use a new right knee, I get fidgety according to a prior orthopedic surgeon when the bone saw spools up or maybe it was the smell of saw blade meeting bone, anyhow I may have one general anesthesia left in me which I will pocket for now and I'm choosing mind over mobility, anyway where did I leave my damn cane!
