Well, I worked till about 3:30 giving me ample time to get home with  
the new Oxygen sensor and get it in before the 4:30  
departure.....closed the door on the borrowed POS Ford truck and  
locked all my keys in plain view on the seat.  Spent 20 minutes and  
finally popped the door lock.....It's now 4:21 and we decided 5 was  
the latest we could leave.  I got that new sensor in in 16 min.  
thanks to remembering what that socket with the wierd slit on the  
side was for.....  Zoooooom, the car and the new ABT chip were  
happy.  I posted a 2mpg increase (22.5, still not as good as the lago  
car, but I may have burned a bit of gas revving it up at  
times....Heater flap spring broke on the voyage, and the whole car  
fogged up in traffic......I used a hot dog stick at the game to shove  
the flap in place and it stayed/is still staying.  Got the truck  
bearing assemblies today, and anyone who know's anyone with a Chevy/ 
GMC 2500-3500 from 2000, www.duramaxstore.com saved the day, and sent  
me these for $189/each/free shipping(49lbs).....($495/each was the  
worst quote I got).   Spent $40 today on large socket's I don't own/ 
impacts just in case.....Tom
