Robert, Could the whining noise in your truck be caused by a warn or dirty speedometer cable?

Moore To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, February 07, 2007 7:45 PM Subject: RE: [BlindHandyMan] Whiny truck Does not seem to change with road speed. Also it did not do this today it sat in a warm shop for about 2 hours before we took it out and ran around all day. I think it must only do this when it gets really cold. It has been sub 0 hear for the last week or 2. I had it in the shop for my mechanic to find out why it is showing that it is running at over 260 degrees and while he had it in I had him check the tranny and the diff and they were both OK. Tranny fluid is a bit dirty and needs to be changed but it was full. Now for the over heating. His scan tool showed it running at 185, just where it should be. We changed the temp sencer and the lead wire going to the sencer. The gage is active but not reading accurate. I think we need to run a whire direct from the sencer to the gage. Any other sugjestions? -----Original Message----- From: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Max Robinson Sent: Tuesday, February 06, 2007 11:36 PM To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] Whiny truck This sounds like car talk.
