Peavine Burn Re-seed

[rusty_tlc]

I lifted this straight from the reno4x4.com forums.

This could be a great way to help with Peavine restoration, and get some people to recognize our groups as being involved in helping out.....

I'm in, who else?

When: 8:30 a.m. to noon March 24.
Where: Meet at Patagonia Outlet parking lot, 8550 White Fir St. and carpool up the mountain.
To sign up: Call the Nevada Land Conservancy at 851-5180

So is anyone else going? I'm not 100% sure I can make it, but I'm hoping to.

I'd like to but I will still be wrenching on the engine this weekend.

I understand that, I might be doing some maintenance as well. How's is yours going? Did you get that bolt out or did you have to get out the cutting tools?

The bolt was galvanically siezed to the fan bracket (the fan bracket is 'pot metal' or maybe aluminum). So I used the Dremmel to cut it away...then it it came apart just fine . Got the water pump out and will be pulling the intake manifold off this coming Saturday to replace the starter (all the 100 guys say the starters are good for 90-100k miles...so I figure I might as well take care of this while I'm doing the 90k...shores up the odds you know ).

I agree with replacement, Toyota starters seem programmed to give up the ghost around that mileage. Make good sense to replace.

Looks like I'll be in good company, I'm pulling my T-case this weekend.
