OMG what a difference new GP make...

Ok so last week I was at Kirkes buying new fuel and oil filters and I asked the guy about GP's and he said that they had gotten some kind of deal from Bosch on a GP/Gp relay kit, for $50.00 and that included 4 Gp and alls I had to do was buy one more Gp and I was good. Well thenm I ask about my 2001 Ford F250 7.3 GP, yep got them too.

So I pick them up Friday and installed them Saturday (57 degrees) and well Sunday about noon it turns off cold here. Well Monday morning it is a Balmy 9 degrees and I'm thinking it is test time for the Benzomatic. So I hop right in there and turn the switch and BAM she starts up and purrs like a new kitten... God do I love these cars... So happy I installed new GP...

Well last night here in Kansas it snowed and got down to 4 degrees and she popped right off with out a hint of it being cold, now I did have her pluged in last night. But when I get off work at 7:00 pm tonight, she will have been sitting out there for about 12 hours and no plug in. Another test... Ahhh

Doc.

Sounds good. $50.00? usually they go for over a $100.00.
you could make some money on that deal. e-bay them and make some profit.

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works
