Just a quickie - my truck is running.On
Sunday evening me and hubby were both convince the problem was in the
torque converter (part of your automatic transmission) and we were
prepared on Monday evening to take it - pull it if needed, down to a
friend's shop to have it torn apart and tested. But while I was at work
Hubby had a thought and stepped outside and pulled the battery - waited
10 seconds (whenever he re-starts his computer I tell him to wait 10
seconds, although you don't really need to do that with an
auto-computer he did it anyway) then hooked it back up and started my
truck.
It runs perfectly. YAY!
So do I think all my
problems are solved? No, but it is working for now - the other usually
symptoms of a worn transmission on the verge of dying just were not
there, the truck wasn't blowing a code - the fluid looked great - he
just wasn't buying the torque converter theory. So for now I will take
it. I need a truck that runs and that can pull my horse trailer - so
until next time I think I am good - this time God said "Fine Steph,
there you go! Your truck is fixed and it didn't cost you anything." To
that I say a whole hearten THANK YOU!
I know there are much more worthy things to pray about but I am only human...
Very busy this week - so sorry for the short update. But I do have to mention this:
I am so freaking excited that they are running RACHEL ALEXANDRA in the Preakness!!!Hey, does this look familiar to anyone??? It should....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TNkBuJtds58&eurl=http%3A%2F%2Finclined2ride.blogspot.com%2F&feature=player_embeddedI am also praying that she makes it to the finish line safely - guess
who Calvin Borel choose to ride - given the choice between the filly
and colt Kentucky Derby Winner Mine That Bird - you guessed it - he's
riding the filly!
It's this weekend right? Grab a seat girls
with any luck we'll see history in the making. All I have heard about
this filly is whisperings of Ruffian and Secretariat - so we'll see
huh?
