Tried to fix tail gate actuator it was dead, so I ordered used one for 45$

Mystery unsolved

When I ordered all bushing I used the EPC and VIN, but on the rig this rod had bushings on both sides one side doesn't appear in the catalog
Does someone knows as the part number?

So I took a few beers and drove to my friend's house and we worked all the holiday

He worked and I sat on my filed couch and drank beer and gave him suggestions and a headache.

We connected the fridge front and rear bumper lights, water pump compressor license plate bumper lights leds on the upper tailgate and CB Motorola radio

We installed the consumer panel with volt meter and kill switch fro each battery.

While we were there I tidy up all the spaghetti around main battery

adedd engine temperature meter and alarm and dual battery system

Starter failed miserably in a petrol station I didn't get love from the people that morning that wanted to fill up and go to work I used a metal road to bang on the starter until it start up drove directly to rebuild shop
My starter unit was overhauled and while I was there I changed the alternator with a refurbished unit they had on the shelf

For the last few weeks I had a very unstable ruff ideal the OBD1 reader showed that bank 1 O2 sensor failed

I ordered from Rockauto 1 cheap 32$ O2 sensor it was the last one in stock (I am waiting for Mr T sensors To arrive from Japan) when it arrives in the box was NTK made in Japan OEM O2 sensor, but when we went to install we found out that the connector was all corroded from water that went in

I ordered 2 connector pigtail from Archie @ATXFJ80 and we renew the O2 harness works perfectly.

I used the rest of the this winter sunny day and drove to the fisherman village to the ruins of the old Roman aqueduct that was rebuilt by the Crusaders and ruined again by Slach a Din during the occupation of the land by the Muslims. You can still see parts sticking out from the sand, outer parts were reconstructed by arciologes
