Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

I've just got a basic scan tool. The code hasn't returned since it was worked on, but I'll keep an eye on it.
If the code doesn't come back don't worry about it. Can you enter the code in your scan tool and see the "since code cleared" page? Or "last test passed/failed"?

With variable valve timing and chain tensioners there are lots of variables. Chain could be stretched and only fail the code test under certain conditions.

80K doesn't seem like a lot of miles for that engine. Was it a new crate engine from GM or was it rebuilt?

Oh, if the chain skipped a tooth it wouldn't run right,

I almost always think the same, not not today. Based on my start, I am impressed that I got it in 3.

With my post-covid energy drain, I have maybe one good day in four. Now I've developed low back pain with the resultant numb left leg and trick knee. Chiropractor yesterday and tomorrow. Hopefully we have similar timelines for (full) recovery.

Hopefully I didn’t forget anything. shoes, bibs, gloves, hat, helmet, bottle……….. Was going to bring my head unit and lights but figured what’s the point.

As big as the case looks, it’s not designed for packing anything.

You could consolidate a lot, though without knowing the rules of baggage, I'm not sure this is allowed. I love mine.

If I was going to PHX just for fun, and not work that would work. My lunch box weighs a ton, and hooks to the front of my bag. Would not want to have to carry 2 bags.

Too bad we live in city limits.

No real need for a rubber snake. We get real ones in there from time-to-time.

If you want to send me your records, I'd be happy to have a look and show your images to the local neuroradiologists.
