The thread I never thought I'd start... (1 Viewer)

Did get a stutter earlier tonight. Running fine. Pulled in to Lincoln, NE and pulled up to a stoplight. Stutter. Died. Fired right back up. Checked vacuum hoses and grounds and all appeared well.

200 miles later got a CEL as I was pulling in to a gas station. Checked everything again and didn't find anything. Fired up again. No CEL when I started it up.

Thoughts?!

I'll bet it's an O2 sensor. First time out on a long hot drive and working it hard burning stuff out if the cats.

Don't forget, it's still in learning mode since you had batteries unhooked. It has to cycle like 30 times or something before it locks in the settings.

Check your oil level to see if you're using or burning any. May be burning more oil than originally anticipated.....

I don't think it's anything to get concerned about.

Well, kinfolk said, you need to move away from here! So they loaded up the truck and they moved to Beverly....... Hills, that is......

 

[LS1FJ40]

Yeah, not overly concerned about it. I checked my grounds and vacuum lines and everything seemed ok. But it was fawking cold out!

I should've replaced my O2 sensors before leaving...

Waffles. Bacon. Home fries. My wife made waffles before we left and froze them so just had to heat them up.

Not a bad view to wake up to...

At this price who cares about 10mpg!!

Light? High profile is questionable as
to whether you fall into their "high profile" category. Your roof rack won't catch as much wind as a panel truck. How did this work out for you. What state?

Wyoming. I was more saying that driving a nonaerodynamic brick wall in to 60 mph gusts sucks!

Park City, UT for the night. 1200+ miles in the books and Mollie is running like a champ. Tomorrow we hit the Land Cruiser museum and make all those garage queens jealous!!

80 was not meant to be driven. That was a beat down.

The road and weather are one set of animals. The semis area whole other level of fawking nuts!!

Well, we are at the Land Cruiser Heritage Museum. @cruiserdan where are you?

I see a cool supercharged 80 series.

Maybe they are closed for the holidays?

Did you knock?

 

[LS1FJ40]

Did you knock?

Yep. Twice.

 

[Cruiserdrew]

You got the knock code wrong. You have to knock in the Mopar hemi firing pattern rumble! Otherwise the shaman ignores you.

 

[cruiserdan]

I am here. I have been running around in the building cataloging vehicles. I'm sorry I did not hear you. I will be here until 5:00 pm if you are still nearby. Call me at 505-615-5470 and I'll let you in.

We already headed out. On our way to Tahoe. Too far to turn around.

I tried calling the number on the website but it said it wasn't on.
