Hey dukie, what kind of radiator over fill bottle do you have? My stock one bit the dust over summer so I went to my local junk yard and couldn't find one so I ordered one new. Got it and the cap that goes on it doesn't have the locking threads all the way around it. This is my second new bottle cause of that cap. It doesn't wanna stay tight. Any ideas bud?

Pretty sure its a sensor, my buddys 89 did the same thing as mine. When he reved the engine the light flickered. So he replaced the sensor and no more issues.

A few days ago, people were talking about Gatorback serpentine belts being God's gift to engines. Can someone give info on how to determine which belt to buy?

I have no lights behind my dash or on my shifter or 4x4 shifter. All went out at once. Why?
