The throttle delay is mostly stall - that said, I think they can program it out... it's really no better or worse then stock H3 stuff.... but I do know someone who bitched enough about it that GM...
As you know, the H3 is being pampered by another.... here's the next

Carl fired up the five horsepower engine and let it warm up. He did a double check on the brackets and fittings, then smiled: "Emma? Get your buns in the boat. We're goin' to take 'er for a spin on...

The plot thickens, the Jasper motor (the 'broken one') has the later block.... I'm really going to be interested in what I find when I pull it apart.
As I'm running out of room, it's time to...

Hmmm... I have no idea how that carpet could get wet like that

I have duratracs on my Colorado - too soon to tell, but I like what I'm reading about them. As for other tires:
Bridgestones - by far and away the best all season tire I had my H3 (the first one)...

a few weeks ago, I blew out the driver's side.... passenger side seemed dry so I didn't bother. What usually happens is the ends weld themselves shut (they're supposed to keep the bugs out).... I...
