Also was getting a lean bank 2 code, so thought maybe a fuel injector... Swapped the injectors on 5 and 6, no change... So finally decided to swap the plugs between 5 and 6, and what do you know? The code moved to cyl 5. So the 2nd Autolite plug failed since swapping the plugs in July... I'll never buy Autolite again.

That's on the old agenda this weekend too.
1st tire rotation and oil change
Trying to decide whether or not to pull the wheel spacers...
Going to be hitting a lot of dirt roads and 2 tracks this hunting season, and thinking I might save a couple rock chips.
Plan on pulling them for the winter to tuck the tires a little better to cut down on salt spray down the side of the truck anyways......

Make sure to torque down your plugs to 25 pounds/foot

Already did that by hand. No tools needed.

Yes.

I was considering one, once upon a time ago, but only for the back window... and then I realized that since it opens from the side that a hood wouldn't allow me to keep it cracked... then I realized I already do that with four other windows and it would be useless even if it did roll up and down.

I've never even seen one before. Popped up in my Faceyspaces today. I don't like the style points from this one.
