old thread post #3

last year around this time i was havin some troubles with my truck. It had a tick/ knock/i hate you sound to it well it finally gave out and blew up. so untill i came up with enough money to get the things for it that i needed and wanted it sat. Up untill about a week ago i towed it to a friends house so he could do the work for me. (he knows more about the L's than i ever will) he sent me a text today tellin me to check out miloc he found my problem..

on a good note at least its not threw the block.

Jeez is that much rust normal? I mean, exhaust parts are pretty common but that just seems like a heck of a lot.

Maybe im just used to florida.

That sucks though, hope it works out for yah.
