It looks like I will need to have my power steering electric motor replaced, junk yards want about $50.00, local mech wants $98.00 to install, chevy dealer chargestocalibrate $105.00 so looks like that is what I will have to do, chevy dealer wants to change $500.00. There is NO RECALL for this.

I'll be days going through the memory cards I filled with photos, as my wife pointed out, I'm a odd site when I've got "my train geek thing going on".

I don't know if you follow the "Count by Picture" thread but Irish Mick and I are hooked on using train pictures

Hello Jay,

I like steam also. to me a diesel is a motor in a box. The N&W J 611 is at Spencer to start putting her back under steam. They hope to have it done by spring of 15.
