Guys,

Im looking at another 12 valver, but I have a serious question. Why would a confirmed 12 valve (build date 8/97) have a Dealer sticker on the metal rail next to the belt routing sticker that says a "reflash has been completed on 8/98??? I thought it doesn't have any true computer input? (being a 12 valve not 24) Is that weird? Help...I want to buy, I just don't understand. The actual mileage is 69,472!!

It does have a PCM, although it doesn't run the engine. I think on 97's there may have been a reflash for cruise control or preheater problems, or something crazy like that.

 

You know what? It's an auto.
I just did more research on this site and I think it was an update (reflash) for the Torqe Converter lock-up problem.

The guy wants 18K for a 98 12 valve, 4x4, auto, 3.55 rear, extended cab. Did I mention the mileage was only 69K!

dam*! thats a pretty decent deal! I'm paying that much for twice as many miles!

 

If you do not jump on it!! I would only assume that there would be a dozen or so that would here, I am one of them. Goodluck,Rick

 

I bought it!!!!!!!! I bought it!!!!!!!!

What a near new beauty it is too. Guys, I can't believe how different a practicly new CTD sounds.

I don't know what to do first!

I know of one thing that would make me happy, let me give you your money back . Oh yea, rub salt in our wounds with some photos!! Condgradulations on the new to you truck,,,,Rick

 

Congrats. Sounds great. Enjoy.

 

Lets see,

Fluids, filters, pyro, boost, trans. temp gauges....oh my!

Where do I begin????

Congratuations on your new rig! Personally I would change all the fulids, have an alignment done, and just drive the truck. Gauges would be nice, I still don't have them, if I ever modify this thing I will. Right now, finishing grad school, I just have to keep on driving it and not think about much else. Enjoy!

Sounds good to me, Why don't I get hear about the good ones before they sell?

 

STRAIGHTPIPE IT...In my opinion nothing sounds better than a Str8piped 12v!
