So I started my truck and it smelled like sulphur.. And i shit my pants thinking it was my cat because I just replaced my fuel pressure regulator yesterday.. Anyway.. Few miles later I'm dropping the kids off and it smells like French fries! I actually walked around to my tail pipe to see if someone jammed it with a potato .. Then I sniffed around and tracked down the smell to under the hood.. Popped it and my battery is sizzling and steaming.. Wtf? So I shut it off slammed the hood and ran in to write this.. Well I did pour a vodka and lemonade first.. ;-) no more workin on cars tonight lol..
I've currently got my trailblazer jacked up taking off the original sway bar end links.. Even the big boy tools couldn't get that bolt off so I resorted to cutting it off.. It worked well and I'll just have to pull the whole sway bar to start re installing the new ones.. And it's also making a fan related noise after fan clutch and water pump.. Needless to say I'm stressed out .. Anyway.. The trucks been having a slight shift issue and I'm 75% sure it's the Ecp solenoid. But it was getting progressively worse then normal when the smell became apparent .. Focusing on the silverado not the tb.. Silverado is dd
