Same over here...right at the 100 degree mark. At least we've been getting some rain late in the day to cool things off.

We have a slight chance for a shower tomorrow, but not too likely.

We had a pretty good lightning storm last night and more expected for today. Glad I got the lawn mowed yesterday before the rain started. Going to drop off my daughter..son in law and the grandson off at the airport around noon.

Refresh my memory. Why is truck in the shop? Is it for bumper repair from an accident?

No, i bought the painted front bumper a few days ago cause the paint on the chrome bumper already has some bad spots on it.

Truck is in for Front Cover Oil Leak ( Timing Chain Cover) and a coolant fitting at one of the turbos.

You really didn't need to ask. You know it's an EB it's always in the shop

Other than a clunky slip Yoke its the first time being in the shop. I don't think a front cover leak is EB specific.

Other EB fellas seens to think they are replacing the wrong thing for the coolant leak. Most say the Ford dealers replace the fitting on the turbo and ends up being the actual coolant tank.
