Holly crap "oops". You mean to tell me that you can dirve your truck in the rain. That's just crazy. Thankfully I live in AZ and it only rains about 5 days a year so I'm not stuck anywhere too long.

I'm glade I'm in AZ also, I don't like my wires in the rain, but I've got the old mechanical injection so I guess I don't got to worrie about the stuff you guys need to. Hey EATER If you want I'll give you a ride on those 5 days a year it rains.
Good luck guys cleaning you engines

I've got this stuff called "Greased Lightning" it says specifically for auto/shop and engines. But it says don't spray on the alt., battery, or drive belts.

Well, I sprayed a bunch of the degreaser on it and let it sit about 15 minutes and then sprayed down with water very well. There is no way your engine gets that wet driving in heavy rain but too late cause I done drenched that sucker and I'm gonna do it again tomorrow!

93 that sounds like a good idea. I don't wanna be stuck in the middle of the city when it rains. All the priuses might gang up on me!
