Default Just Hello

Hello to all, I've used other forums depending on current vehicle, just bought an 02 Monte SS, 3800 motor, not sure how many owners it seems to have had mostly good owners with the last being a slug, who blew the motor and tranny, a shop installed an 03 motor and tranny with 112,000 miles on it, I have fixed a couple of things with the help of this forum as a guest already to note , fuel pump and water in pass floor, I ordered the gm part by number as per post I found here, have to pick it up, I bypassed factory amp as per a post I found here, found a short in sun visor, repaired, hoping the radio doesn't go out again and it be something else, but we'll see, . If I make a fix that works I'll be sure to post and share, this is good forum, and a money saver, I'm blue collar like most here I suspect. looking forward to future correspondence, thanks

Hey welcome to the forum! Sorry to hear about the last guy blowing out your engine. My car has had 9 owners before me so I feel lucky its in such good shape. This forum has been very helpful to me as well In fixing my car.

Welcome to the forum. I have picked up a lot of useful information from looking through the posts on here as well, and saved myself quite a bit of money.
