Whats your 20 days for?

In Maine if you get even one speeding ticket within TWO years of getting your license, you lose it for an automatic 30 days, second for 60, and so on.

Sounds like things are looking good Nick.. glad to hear.

lol, ya.. I bought two more toyotas today... One matt stripped down almsot to the frame... so the junkyard will be mad when they come to pick up nothing tomorrow for free...

the other truck is drivable, and I will be rebuilding the engine for the blue yota. Also came with 1.5 other 22r's and MANY tailights which is good 'cause I brake one a month.

Believe it was a faulty thermostat, getting either stuck open or closed, and somehow (not sure how or why) the reving would correct it. So the general thought is, is that it wasn't even overheating in the first place. Also replaced all of the coolant, it looked fine, but it wouldn't've hurt it do it. If the problem persists then we're going to start relacing hoses, and doing a full system flush.
But at this point I'm going to say that I will be making the trip. But as always its subject to change.

Now to go mountain biking where I'm the only engine that can crap out <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Well declaring partial victory, still goes up, still revs, but doesn't go up nearly as high, and stops quicker than before. Taking the 200+mile trip to my camp this coming weekend and that will be my test on whether I make the trip or not.....man I should just buy a horse.
