Personally I hit the trap once a week, I got a 12 gauge mossberg 835 with mossy oak finish I'd like to get some geese this year. (first time hunting)

 

I also shoot 22 ruger once in awhile at the same range but they don't have a good backstop there so I can't sight new reminginton model 700 sps 30-06 in (yet!)

 

I'd like to bag some big game, I'm a little worried about the gutting part seeing as how I never hunted before!

Yes, it is our American right to bear arms. I want to see somebody put guns are bad for there vote. But, I don't shoot skeet or go to gun ranges, I have 200 acres where I live to do whatever and my dad owns a hunting club.

Yeah, well I can't say too much on the subject of Obama or I can be banned. But, I will say that he has definitely made some unwanted changes and did unwanted things which make us American a little scared about our rights being lost. In other words, you'd be worried to if you had to put up with Obama.

Hey, I'm with you there. Politics are boring and I also don't vote, so I guess that really means I shouldn't have anything to say about how bad or good he is. But, just my opinion. Politics is like an ongoing headache, it never ends. We Americans complain because we each have our own ideas of what's right and what's wrong, and this is where most of this country's conflicts come from. But, like everyone else, I never point out the good things anyone does, just the bad.

This is what i shoot

 

I also have a bow, some cheap ass brand like bowtech, I think, though. I haven't used that thing in probably two years, though. But it's fun and a whole lot cheaper than using a gun, considering you don't screw up your arrow or lose it.

22's are for squirrels, and not 22 inch rims, either.

For squirrels and other small game.

Generally yes you'd wanna use a 22 or even a pellet rifle.

But wouldn't it be more fun to use a bow?

 

 

Or a large caliber rifle?? :D

Sure, if you like blowing your potential food all to hell. The "blow it all to hell" part does, in fact, sound fun, though.

      Remote Start Noise 2024 2500 HD Gas

      By PunchT37 · Posted

      Those are parts changers. It can get expensive though. I was a mechanic for 30 yrs. My truck has made this noise since new. I really don`t know what it is. It really doesn`t bother me. I`m still in warranty but have not brought it to the dealer.   I`m not buying the oil pump prime thing. Screw the TSB. I believe it`s in the trans pump gears. They rattle when that piss poor ULV oil drains off after a while. I believe those sharp tooth gears, with backlash, can rattle when dry. Not a vane style oil pump. Wonder who`s right? Me, or the TSB?🤔   Maybe I`m wrong?

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      On the PCM side, blue PCM connector, pin 18, solid gray color (no stripe) wire circuit 435.  That is the EGR low circuit which an issue on that line (be it the wiring, the PCM or the EGR valve or system performance) will trigger P0401 when it tests that code.     There is also a VERY old TSB that states to make sure you clear the DTCs ANY time the PCM is unplugged, reprogrammed, or if the EGR valve is unplugged or replaced as the PCM has an auto zero function in the PCM for the EGR pintle data   61-65-59: SMU - SECTION 6E - ENGINE CONTROLS - CLEAR DTC'S - (Nov 25, 1996)   "CLEAR ANY DTCS FROM THE VCM ANYTIME AFTER DOING VCM REPLACEMENT/ PROGRAMMING, TURNING THE IGNITION ON WHILE THE EGR VALVE IS DISCONNECTED, OR REPLACING THE EGR VALVE."   Some diagnostic aid notes in the GM diag on P0401 for a 1995 S10 Blazer:   Diagnostic Aids Notice: In order to prevent further damage if the EGR valve shows signs of excessive heat, check the exhaust system for blockage (possibly a plugged converter) using the procedure found on the restricted exhaust system check. If the exhaust system is restricted, repair the cause; one of which might be an injector which is open due to one of the following reasons: Stuck Grounded driver circuit Check the oil for possible fuel contamination if a stuck open fuel injector is found. Poor connection or damaged harness - Inspect VCM harness connectors for the following conditions: Backed out terminal BL 18 Improper mating Broken locks Improperly formed or damaged terminal Poor terminal to wire connection Damaged harness Intermittent test - If connections and harness check OK, monitor a digital voltmeter connected between terminal BL 18 and ground while moving related connectors and wiring harness. If the failure is induced, the voltage reading will change.

      HighMileage oils or stay with Dexos 1 ?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      This biggest difference in a HM oil is in contains some  "Seal Conditioner". DEXOS oils and most shelf oils are "Dry" oils which over time harden seals. "Seal Conditioner" is more times than not, an Ester. Addition will soften the seals over time but will not repair one that leaks or has cracked. Esters also provide some cleaning but these HM oils don't contain enough to solve out hard deposits. Just the soft stuff.  Also a function of an Ester.    Ester's are not 'allowed' as a 'co-base" by license. Weird, right?  A certain amount is allowed as an additive. Bunch of game playing is what it is. It's why HM oils don't have a DEXOS approval.    DEXOS is a license 'with' a specification but is not a specification. Never was, never will be. It's GM's slot machine always paying the house. Use what you like.
