Ken B 3,189 #26 Posted April 12, 2014 I worked at Chevy from the begining's of Computer Command Control carbs up through the use of Multi-port injection in the trucks. The 90's trucks were awesome with the throttle body system and almost no hoses or wires. I used to hate working on the Ford tuck trade ins. The valve cover that sat under that stupid giant manifold always leaked. I hated working on Ford's. What leak, I don't see no leak! As far as my least favorite GM motors to work on it was the Quad 4 (headgasket no fun) and the Olds 307 gutless wonder boat anchor... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 23,307 #27 Posted April 12, 2014 Thanks for all the nice comments guys. This is my 3rd new fleet truck. I bought a new 1986 Ford F-150 with the 300 straight 6 back in 1986. Had over 100,000 and was still running great, but you could see through it. That was a great truck. Then I bought the 2000 GMC Sierra with the V-6. This was a great truck also...just over 96,000 and rotting out under the doors. It's going to be a good truck for someone. And now comes the 2014...I am really liking this truck already. For 1 thing...it is quiet as a mouse...2nd...the gearing gives it some real spunk. I'm still breaking it in, but I have a feeling the top end is really good also. She feels like she really likes to cruise in the 70's and it is a very nice ride. COMING TO A SHOW NEAR YOU 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't even want to talk about the day the Chevy dealer bought out a local AMC/Jeep/ Renault dealer and we had to work on those too! You haven't lived until you worked on those toilets!
