  1. I always swore by yamasenkos, but have since refused to buy them for those crazy prices. I have found a few others that sink at the same speed and seem to do fine. Can't find my favourite colour though.
  2. Yes, I took the advice and bought a new gasket. So, the pick up was pretty gummed up, but the o-ring didn't seem that bad. Changed those out, but maybe only made a little difference.
  3. Well, I bought the pick up tube and o-ring and will attempt it over the holidays. I have a hoist lined up and a little help. Fingers crossed that this is the problem and I haven't done too much damage. Also hoping that the oil pan gasket is reusable.
  4. That was a better game from the leafs scorers! Not sure what's up with Jersey (maybe goal tending), they looked pretty good earlier.
  5. I'm not sure one new d-man is going to make much of a difference with the amount of giveaways and turnovers I'm seeing in the games.
  6. Do you ever see anyone else out on the lake?
  7. I can't imagine how frustrating it is to knock 4 (?) off the post and lose the game.
  8. Vasilevskiy was amazing last night. He stole the show far and away!
  9. Just don't know if that D guy is available anywhere. Who should they go after? They might have to wait until the trade deadline for some names to come available.
  10. They won't be able to afford Gardiner either as an unrestricted free agent.
  11. Pretty sure the pick up tube connection can be accessed. I wouldn't attempt to change the oil pump myself.
  12. The pan isn't the problem, it's having to drop the front diff that has me avoiding it.

  14. Some people have too much money if they spend it on something like this. Not saying it won't work, but are we fishing or do we want a device to fish for us?
  15. Not sure why Babcock likes Gardiner so much.... I know the guys has talent, but like Oggie, said he has problems with brain gas.
  16. I hear you about being stranded, but still a struggle to put the money out.
  17. Thanks DanD. That's not as bad as I thought. Someone quoted me $1500, might ask around now. I'm actually keeping my eyes open for another truck also.
  18. It gets pretty scary when driving on the 401 in T.O. and see so many people on there phones. It sure happens in the smaller towns too.
  19. Geez, I just put in a bottle of Lucas Oil Stabilizer on the weekend. Do you mind if I ask the going rate should be to drop the oil pan in this vehicle?
  20. Unfortunately, I don't think the oil pump can be changed through the oil pan. It sits in front of the timing chain. I think I am going to cross my fingers that it lasts a while and start looking for another vehicle.
  21. The mechanic actually wired in some diodes to trick the sensor into thinking that the volts aren't dropping to the voltage that triggers the warning sound. It's such a shame because it's evident that the vehicle was cared for and maintained well (other than this). I have never seen any sludge during oil changes, even when I cleaned it with seafoam (not to say that there isn't an internal issue like Fisherman indicated). Everyone that has worked on the vehicle comments on the good condition. I do agree with you on the worn out oil delivery system aplumma. All too much for me to do, maybe I can find someone to drop the oil pan for less and try the simple fix of the o-ring. Replacing the vehicle is obviously the best option and I will be looking into that also. I appreciate the responses, thanks!
  22. Boston and Halak have gotten into their heads. They should have played the whole game like they did in the third.
