Previous thermostat could've been busted.

Continued to beat my head against the wall trying to figure out and fix a P0705 fault code. It is mind boggling because everything checks out fine and it works prefectly

I would agree to that although he said he fitted his winter thermostat

Bought some Rotella T6 5w-40 and a WIX oil filter to see if it will quiet down the engine a bit. If not, then I've got some digging to do.

Mine was flashing the headlights. Installed the harness over 4 years ago and it's worked perfectly ever since

So...no?

Use the old switch if you want. It won't overheat any more with the harness.

Sweeet. Going to keep the new one in the box then. Still haven't received it in the mail. I'm sure it'll be put to use one day, either in mine or sold to someone else.

Didn't make it down to the shop to work on my YJ today, but I spraybombed the truck (future tow rig) to cover all the rust spots for winter and the spots where the old maroon paint was showing through. She's in rough shape, but it looks a helluva lot better since I covered all the rust. Should be a lot warmer now, too, since I covered the holes in the driver door

Then I took the lady to the local dealership to look at 2015 JKs for her to DD

Put a few patch panels on it, and it'll be good as new!
