I know, i know.  I just can't stop adding these things.  They're great.  This allows us to put "avatars" or personal images under your name.  The one prob, until you go to your profile and select "noavatar" it gives you this wierd picture.  If everyone could please do that so I don't have to do that to 40 accounts that would be nice.  Or... you could select personal avatar and then have the url of the pic you want to use.  Right now it is displaying the images as 32 x 32 but it is suppose to be 64 x 64, so use 64 x 64 images so when i fix it they won't be messed up.  Hope you enjoy this feature.  Sorry for all the X boxed images for the next few days.

I fixed the 32 x 32 thing so just ignore all that.  If you need help figuring out how to use this feature just post for help or PM me!!

SiiL T, I went to change my profile but you must of all ready fixed mine?  Thanks I would have done it.  Sometimes I'm a little slow getting up to speed on some of this new stuff.  Keep the changes coming we or should I say I will do my best to keep up.  The more you do the easier it will be for you to grow this board to have lots of post every day.  Keep up the good work!!

D****T TOM!I was looking for a bowtie like that to use.Where did you get that from?

 

I got it from Chevrolet.com, in the "contact us" section.  It was black and white and I colorized it with paitshop pro.  You can have it It you like.  I'll e-mail it to you.  I decided to use the gold one on their main page.  It looks like the one on my truck.

Alright, I found a graphic that I want to use for this feature, but I don't know how to get it.  It is on the GMC website, and I can highlight it and copy it, but can't do anything with it then.  I have microsoft paint, and it won't allow me to paste this graphic into there.  Is there some other way to get this graphic, or do I need a different program to paste it into?  

If I need a different program to put this graphic into, would somebody be able to do this for me?

Its real easy.

All you have to do is find the pic you want. Right click with your mouse and select "Properties". A small window will open and highlight and copy the URL of the picture you would like to use.

Paste that url into the box for the pic in your profile.

Hope this helps.

The "Calvin piss-on" is OK with everyone isn't it?   If not I'll change it...

I don't have a problem at all!!!! Thats what this site is all about. A place where we don't have Ford guys looking oever our back.

Well, so far it looks like people like the new feature.  I am glad cause it was a real pain in the aaaa---butt.  I didn't edit any of your pics, maybe they just fixed themselves.  I think all you had to do was resave your profile info.  How do you all like my pics?  Am i "mysterious" enough?

Alright that was pretty easy, but now I feel like an idiot for not knowing you could do that.    :)

    • Sure, but they do have some affordable options like the Trax, Trailblazer, Envista, and Encore. Some of these have a cheaper base price than the Civic, though the fuel economy isn’t as high. The main problem is that people WANT the highest trim with all the goodies and finance for like 7 years. That’s how ppl “afford” the more expensive vehicles. 
    • Holy s**t - not much of a parts thrower you say? You BLASTED that thing with the parts cannon!  You'd have been probably $1,000 ahead if you had just brought it to a competent shop rather than shotgunning a bunch of parts it clearly didn't need.   Just FYI - oil additives are really, REALLY good at ONE thing ... and that's emptying your wallet. They're ALL useless gimmicks.   If that has the L94 or L99, then #7 is an AFM cylinder. I'd suspect a failed lifter in that case.   If you leaned on wiring, sensors, and/or connectors while changing the oil, you'll have to check all that to be sure pins didn't get pulled out, connectors broken, etc.. Old wire loom that was barely adequate when new is certainly brittle by year 19 - make sure wires aren't chaffed and shorting out somewhere where you might have leaned. or supported yourself on it.   If your a mechanic, why didn't you just find out what you were missing and troubleshoot from there??  TIMED spark, fuel PSI / injector pulse, air, compression.  Can't make ANY money going the parts cannon route.
    • LOL! Are you joking?? That wax SUCKS! 100% gimmick made to "look" good.    After just TWO winters I had severe surface rusting in patches over 90% of the frame. Only reason it looks great in the pics is because I SATURATED the frame every single fall with used motor oil for 14 of the 16 years I owned it. Otherwise it would've been sent to the crusher 8 years earlier with the speed it was rusting prior!    I sold that POS 3 years ago. Was a gigantic headache the second it rolled off the showroom floor. Brakes pulsated on the TEST DRIVE. Door trim fell off the 1st week! Interior squeaked and rattled, and the drivetrain clunked after 2k miles. 4x4 switch failed shortly after. Front end - ball joints, struts, hub bearings - all failed between 38k-50k. Engine started burning oil at 50k. Rear and and transmission failed before 100k. Nothing but problems, and frustration with the piss-poor engineering designed to make you give up. Well, it worked! Nothing on that truck was easy to remove ... except the wheels. They haven't figured out how to screw that up yet. Give 'em time ...   I won't make that mistake again. EVER.   Such fond memories ... https://postimg.cc/K1qf23tS  https://postimg.cc/gallery/X02z64J  https://postimg.cc/gallery/mHSRXZv  https://postimg.cc/gallery/D4mMRfL
    • Different monitors do their test only under conditions specific to that monitor.  you MIGHT find the drive cycle conditions for the monitor that isn't ready on this site: https://lemon-manuals.la/   If it's not there, then it should be on alldata.com for your truck, but it requires a paid subscription.   And you need to know which specific monitor isn't ready.
