A buddy I worked with took his Toyota Camry to a salvage yard on NE 23 in OKC and they replaced his engine. That was 10 yrs ago and he is still driving it.
Do you know which one?? There are a BUNCH of salvage yards on NE 23rd. (Asking for a friend
)
@tRidiot if Grumpy can do it you can!!And much as it pains me to say it outloud where he can throw it back in my face later
Oh I know YouTube is a lifesaver... you know how many times I have watched a 'refresher' video in the middle of the night before performing some kind of procedure on someone??? lol
I am sure it gives people lots of comfort to know their doctor was refreshing with a YouTube video before putting in a central line or chest tube!
If it still starts and doesn't knock, make sure it is full of coolant and drive it back to your house. I have limped plenty of blown head gasket cars around. I wouldn't worry about preserving a core- they are cheap to come by and getting a salvage engine is your best bet anyway.
I always wondered why it took the docs so long to show up in the ER.Oh I know YouTube is a lifesaver... you know how many times I have watched a 'refresher' video in the middle of the night before performing some kind of procedure on someone??? lol

Now I know they were in the back somewhere watching YouTube. [emoji16]
Sounds like a plan.
Some advice from the Tahoe/Yukon forum was to put in 2 bottles of blue head gasket sealer and see if it worked to buy me some time when I could continue to drive it while I hunt for a new motor. I've never heard of this stuff.

If you can build an AR, you can fix a car. Just depends on how fast you need the car, and those GM motors are everywhere. I limped one for a good solid week with minimal driving of course and rebuilt the top end over a 3 day weekend and drove it from Memphis to OKC to trade in once I got my family back to our house. Minimal money spent, lots and lots of elbow grease and imagination.
It's worth a shot and the education you will receive could benefit you and others you know for the rest of your life. If I had to do it over again I would have made the same choices and invested a little more time into the motor and kept the vehicle.
Good luck!

Haha!! I asked a PCP about some weird thing I had going on at one appointment. She did some typing on the computer and then turned the screen around and showed me a google search. Same google search I had done the night before.
Honest!! She got mad at me when I laughed and said if you will go to page 3 you will find a real interesting study. That's why I was asking! And honestly it makes me feel better that you guys DON'T think you are God after all! I'll wait all day until you are comfortable that you have your **** together!
Oh yeah, I look stuff up on my laptop all the time with patients there. Sometimes to find a med they have I don't recognize, or various things. A lot of times it's to show them some example, a picture or something. I don't keep any of those anatomical models in my office, you know of a spine or a knee joint or something to show people? I just google it and my touchscreen laptop lets me blow up pics to zoom in and show them, etc.
Tech is incredible.

I have used Blue Devil a few times in the past. It worked 2 out of 3 times...so it`s worth a shot to keep you going for a bit.
I would bring your truck home fairly quick. A family member just had his Chevy stolen near the airport. Found it mostly stripped down on the west side a day later. Lots of older gm trucks and suv`s get stolen on that side of town and stripped of anything they can sell quick
