Exploring the Universe in my Trooper V6

Hooyah!
Mr. Movida @ 304,xxx and counting.
It is wonderful, yes indeed. After three months shy of being on the roads of this great country (that would be America folks) and over 304,8++ miles, the great State of Oregon has once again seen it proper to allow Mr. Movida to again PASS his smog examination and be allowed to re-register. HOOYAH!
As Mr. Movida will after this year be over the fine age of twenty years, he will no longer need to present himself to the State for this exam. People tell me time and time again about how bad the heads and engines are in these old Troopers, but I would have to say that this is one V6 jimmy that wants to contest those comment.
Way to go, Mr. Mo…
Starter Rebuild Posted
I finally got my starter rebuilt and posted up to the ‘Just Talkin’ 
Truck’ tab. You will find that post under Repairs – Starter and Repairs – Solenoid.
If this rebuild helps someone else make a successful rebuild of their starter then it has been worth the while.
Good Luck
