This thread is a perfect "story" to add to your book.

 

It could go something like this:

 

"So I was trying to write a book, and then realized that I wasn't capable of doing so. So then, I tried to get ideas from other people on the internet as a way for them to write it for me. I got n00bed, and realized that idea wasn't going to work, either. It didn't work for me, but it might work for you." :D

 

THE END

Don't thank me for writing your book. I just gave you a story to add to it like you asked. You're welcome though.

Ouch! No love for firerage here. :D

 

Alot of us have been "nOObed" (whatever the hell that means) at one time or another.

 

 

Alot of the lessons I've learned in my life, I didn't learn from some mentor teaching me, I learned alot of those lessons on my own. By coming home late and getting yelled at, By failing to pay Ticket fines and losing my liscense, By ending up passed out drunk in somebody's Driveway, By Saying things that shouldn't be said, and the like.

 

Life is full of lessons, and I've found there's Nothing in life you can go through without learning a lesson. And most lessons are better learned by one's self.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You know what? That sounds like a good entry in a Book to me. :D

I just want to give credit were credit is do, besides you took the time to "Write" part of the book. :D Even with the sarcastic critisim i've learned something that i will add to it. (dont worry though i always give credit were credit is do.) Now General's thoughts were what i was looking for. Not going to quote or even write what he said just gets me thinking down a different path.

 

We were going to sit and write about everything we have learned about women in the past year's. The problem is when we finished every page was blank. :D Well back to the drawing board.

      Where is the Ambient Air Temperature Sensor on a 2021 Chevy Suburban?

      By newdude · Posted

      Yea that's pretty normal to be off a few degrees.  Usually 2-4 degrees from say a weather app or thermometer.

      Where is the Ambient Air Temperature Sensor on a 2021 Chevy Suburban?

      By studly · Posted

      I just replaced the ambient air temperature sensor.  Easy as pie. I simply had to remove about 10-12 clips on the plastic cover over the radiator and remove two T-10 torx screws on the hood release lever to liberate the cover (Amazingly, none of the clips broke.  All came out and went back in with zero problems). Once the cover was removed, the temp sensor is easily accessible. The sensor cable snakes through a few guides and can be pulled out for even easier access to the sensor. I was able to work the sensor out of the mounting hole.  There is a red sliding catch on the plug that must be pulled back to disconnect the cable.  The plug was quite tight.  I had to use a screwdriver to pry it out. I plugged in the new sensor ($6.45 from RockAuto), snapped it into the mounting hole and re-snaked the cable. I put the radiator cover back on and reattached the lever arm to the hood release.  All done!     I started up my Suburban.  The temperature read 82 °F. Other thermometers at my house read 80 °F.  Close enough.  It might be reading high as my vehicle was sitting in the sun.

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

      By Atlas · Posted

      That one looks decent for the price   BUT..I want something that also supports OBDI/1.5. A lot of the prosumer-grade scanners don't have legacy support in order to keep costs low. I believe the Autel does if you go higher end with them.   For fun, I reached out to a local Snap-On rep because I was interested in the 2600. $1895 MSRP, says he can do $1595. That's still a lot, but then again, that's not a horrible discount for just asking out of the blue. Could probably do better if I was a regular buying off his truck, but I'm not.   Not sure if I mentioned but I didn't realize with USED scanners from Snap On that you need to make sure a) the serial number isn't flagged as stolen. On the newer ones, SnapOn can remotely disable the device if it's flagged in their system. And, customer service can tell you if it is, if you're thinking about buying used. B) Make sure it's paid off. If the seller still owes money to the truck or if they financed through Snap On, the device can be remotely disabled until the balance is paid. It's less clear if SnapOn will tell you if a balance is still owed; I didn't make it that far with the used model I was considering. I did read that SnapOn has no way of tracking any "truck financing" deals between the SnapOn rep and buyer, only if they financed through corporate. So there's that extra caution needed.   Still waffling on whether I go with a ~$500ish Autel/TopDon or spend bigger money. The value seems to be in the prosumer brands. I'm not giving them enough credit TBH, actual production repair shops use them daily BUT I'm still allergic to certain kinds of underdog products trying to unseat American companies with solid reputations. SnapOn's scanner isn't wholly made in the US, but it is assembled here and they have US support and probably the most proven/ robust legacy support.   Something to think about. Value, or principles? There's a $1k difference.

      Winter Returned

      By Atlas · Posted

      I'm thankful to live where we don't have extreme weather. We might all be blown to smithereens when Mt. Rainier goes, but 80 is warm enough in the summer and I can generally count the number of hard freezes in the winter on one hand. The cars here don't rust and they don't get sun-baked, either.   We have finished off many of our average 52 days of "clear/sunny" weather, though. Sunsets are coming earlier, the nights are a little cooler. It's right around the first week of September when we get our first warning that summer is coming to a close with overcast skies and the start of "hoodie weather" temperatures during the cooler parts of the day. By October, it's usually time to ditch the shorts. By November, it's mostly raining.
