    I fill at around 3/4 (on the gauge) for a few reasons. First, it's an emergency vehicle and I never know when I might have to drive a couple hundred miles. Second, the fuel gauge on this truck has been "wonky" since it was new. GM records show the whole thing (gauge and sending units) were...

    I like this one, but I'd have to answer "other". I usually fill up at 3/4

    What do you dip your french fries in?

    Maybe we should have a poll on what type of french fries folks like best also? Crinkle cut, regular cut, shoestring, wedge style, steak fries... Seasoned? Batter dipped? Coated? Skins on or off?

    What do you dip your french fries in?

    Most of the time, nothing at all. Sometimes a little ketchup. I'm one of those weird folks who actually enjoys the basic taste of most foods, so I very seldom season things.

    What size screen do you usually view the forums on, and is it standard or widescreen?

    Usually my desktop, which is a 23" widescreen, but sometimes my laptop, which is a 17", also widescreen.

    What do you do to waste time at work?

    I think it was "What do you do to waste time at work... besides TTS" It just got left off because it was kind of superfluous and redundant.

    Favorite style of work boot?

    5" or 6" waterproof, insulated lace ups with a side zip, in a EEE width

    What brand of work boot do you wear?

    I just went out and looked at the box they came in, which I saved for some odd reason, and yes, they're a EE not a EEE (which would be minimum for me - one of my diving instructors in the Navy joked I didn't need Navy issue flippers as Mother Nature had already equipped me). I wore them for...

    What brand of work boot do you wear?

    Danner and Magnum. Had to stop wearing the Danners though. Even in what they call an extra wide they were cramping my feet to the point of causing corns.

    What do you do to waste time at work?

    Retired now but back when I was working I'd read a book if I had time to kill.

    leaking power steering fluid by master brake cylider

    I had to do this job on my truck about 8 months ago. I took it over to a friend's shop and the two of us got it done in about an hour and a half with very little bloodshed. We did cheat a little though... We removed the lower half of the dash and dropped the column to give better access...

    No Start Issue - Heat Soak Issue?

    PMD is a new new FS. Grounds were checked for both resistance and for voltage drop. Any that showed resistance were removed, cleaned, replaced. The grounds you mention, RR of the block, are clean and tight. Most grounds on this vehicle have new terminals that are crimped, soldered and heat...

    No Start Issue - Heat Soak Issue?

    Just an FYI... I replaced both batteries a week after my last post and the truck has been starting and running fine. And both batteries that were replaced tested "Good" on the tester at Autozone.
