Rawhide and The Burb

[PlayingWithTBI]

Door sticker says fronts 50/rears 80, so I got them to 45/75 and that'll allow a little room for them to get warmer.....

Personally I'd pump them up to the rating on the tires. They may not be the ones that came with OE specs. Anyway, the ratings are based on "cold" temps, not after running 100 miles in the heat

Tires are old so I don't want to push my luck.....

Whenever you get around to replacing them, I recommend Cooper Discoverer HTP 2s. Have those on Zoe, and the '02 Silverado. Extremely good tires on the road, they wear like iron, and they even do ok off the pavement, as long as it isn't super muddy.

Sounds good, how much do they cost?

This is the price in my area. And they have a 55k mile treadwear warranty.

Replaced the spark plugs yesterday, and the throttle position sensor today, in Rawhide. Seems to have taken care of the majority of the funky dancing idle. We'll see, when we get to drive it more.....

Ended up having to replace the idle air control valve on Rawhide; good news is, that and a couple of freeway runs "to blow out the cobwebs" seem to have eliminated the rough idle. It's been a little cooler the last few days too and the truck likes that better....
