So the maiden voyage.....
Of course the first stop was the gas station but then we took off on about a 30 minute ride....Some through town and then some on the open road.
I will preface the rest by saying you can not buy good parts nowadays.....just ain't made good anymore.
Speedometer didn't work....bad Vehicle Speed Sensor
..Matt used his GPS on his phone to kinda guide us as far as speed. We got it to about 70 mph...OH YEAH!
The front end did not feel like a Sherman Tank and it road fairly smooth
...seems to be a slight shimmy in the back so we will re-check the wheels and then the driveshaft...It is minor and did not detract from the overall ride just something we have to check.
Matt sat up the tune as a very basic driving tune, very forgiving and no power to ensure we didn't blow it up but could see what it was doing. He datalogged part of it and now is working on the drivability tune.
We noticed several things during the drive that have to be addressed and luckily they are all minor things that are easily fixable...just a little time and they will be fixed.
The temperature switch went bad so the fan ran constantly..even when you turn the truck off the fan runs, runs, runs, runs....So we have to get another brand new switch.
Starter bedix started acting up...Yep you guessed it...Brand New starter.
Passenger side power window didn't work...wanna guess? Bad Switch
There were several other little things that we noticed but all in all
We have 25 items we will fix but it is at least drivable right now which is a GREAT thing
More to come.........
