I still have yet to find a scanner that will read my codes, but I did find a broken coolant sensor and replaced it the other day. The thing missed like crazy with it plugged in but would run fine with it unplugged, although it was hard to get started. Finally I double checked the part number and noticed they sell the pigtail so I took all the wires apart and although the plug looked good, I cleaned it really good and plugged it back in and drove it some, the light went out and it hasn't missed in about 100 miles.

Been a while since I posted on here, I repainted the passenger side due to some bad filler or hardener. I also order some front end parts, not sure what I am getting myself into. I think the control arm bushing are going to suck bad.

The control arm bushings aren't too bad with a press. With one of those ball joint c-clamp presses well... not so much. Just make sure you lube them well before install and clean the bores up good.
