Inexpensive Tires by bauer24

">I called 3 Walmarts to find Goodyear Wrangler Tires for our Sonoma -none in stock. Called Grismer they could sell them for $20 more a piece! I said no thanks. So i called 2 walmarts and asked if Goodyear Viva 2 would make much difference since i don't do loading but 2x a year. They said no. They put 2 in front and I was going to going to have to get the other 2 on back somehwere else. However, i see a big difference in handling-no so good. Yes I have on 2 styles of tires now. But I am concerned I should have had a specific truck tire. Not to mention the valves they put on are for a monster truck tire (sticks out past wheel)-looks so stupid. I have to go back to have them fix the latter and I want my old flat tires back. Anyone hear of putting performance tires on truck? Think I will be okay to get the other AE Viva 2 put on back?

You click on a topic, and get 20 out of 23 posts not related.
Mix in a wiper blade post when it started out seats and what not. How the heck do you follow through with this nonsense?
 
Any other Vehicle site I've ever been on, the original poster starts the topic, and non related posts are moved out or deleted.
 
It should also be separated by State.
Keep a General Thread, and have a Technical Thread, and Used Parts Thread just for S-15, Sonoma. And one for the ones with 4 wheel drive.

Are your turn signals and Emergency flashers different lenses and bulbs?
 
If so, turn signal if out on one side is always a bulb out on that side.
If all are out not working, then check flasher. Even if warning lights do work.

hello, my name is don, and i just finished rebuilding my 2000 s10 2.2l vin5 engine. it runs great, but im having some issues with my temp, and fuel guage not working at all. as i was driving to seat the rings, the check engine light came on. i plugged my code reader into the OBD2 port with the engine running, and later on with it not, and nothing at all from the reader. i know it works fine as i plugged it into another one of my other cars. i was thinking maybe a grounding issue, so i double checked all my grounds, and still nothing. can you help me out with this prob?? please. thank you

The thing with codes is, erase them and see what comes back.
If you had temp and fuel before the engine work. You need to find out what is not hooked up, or what wire maybe pinched and shorted.
