Quick Game For A Few Free Jigs 2025
Siebert Outdoors reply :
The first person to tell me whats wrong with this picture wins 3 free jigs. This happened this morning. This photo is of a 2004 Silverado dash board.
Hi Salenity reply :
80# oil pressure?
tomustang reply :
And 500rpm for 24mph
Hi Salenity reply :
I think my 04 with a 4.8 only held 40 psi
Siebert Outdoors reply :
Well that didnt take long.
I did not even notice the 80 PSI so we have 2 winners.
Tomustang is correct. From what I found. Dash is messed up and it says 24 mph at 500 rpm. So from this morning I have to subtract 24mph from my speed to calculate my actual speed.
Guys please pm me your Name and address. I'll ship you out some jigs.
Thanks for playing.
Hi Salenity reply :
Whoohoo!
tomustang reply :
I actually won something!

Yep, it's actually running, that's how we know. A ford would have just read zeros across all the gauges, LOL.
Alonerankin2 reply :
Oh come on! Gauges are soo over rated!
Bladesmith, reply :
I believe that if my temp gauge said above 210 degrees I would be concerned.

We must drive the same vintage of vehicles, but the newer stuff has warmer thermostats to help with emissions control.

Mike, i think you may have a 3rd winner here man.... the obvious thing wrong with the picture is you're driving and snapping a cell phone pic at the same time....

well he may be driving, but he is going 0 mph as he said he had to subtract 24 from his speed to get actual speed, so at the speed the vehicle was going at the time of the photo i don't think he was too much of a hazard. lol...

There is definately something wrong with the oil. If your gauge is reading a maximum oil pressure there is probally a blockage somewhere. As for just the speedo then its fine. Basically its a cable that twists with the speed of the tires and it is corresponding to the gauge. If something slips or the tension is released at some point the speedo will read wrong.

Good job to the winners, you can never have enough quality jigs especially with cold weather coming.

Probably not on this vehicle. It looks too new, 2000 or newer.
There's a VSS (vehicle speed sensor) which tells the computer what the speedo should read. Ditto the tach -- I believe those signals come solely from the computer now.
If these readings were correct, the check engine light would trip and the engine probably wouldn't run.
I'm saying there's a common ground for the oil pressure and tach that's shorted. That's my best guess knowing GM stuff but not knowing the particulars of this vehicle.

Yeah i forgot about the modern stuff. I spend most of my time with old POS trucks in auto shop at school so most everything is old and analog so we just go by what the gauges say and that kind of stuff. Sorry for the confusion.

I'm a Ford man and I got a kick out the replies from the Ford owners. This thread looked like fun for everyone so, I'll throw one in for you. The first person to identify this building and it's location will receive a new Megabass Pop Max, in AKA Tora color from my collection. Good Luck!
Smokinal reply :
That's a typical, bad GM circuit board right there. We see many of them. The low RPM, incorrect speed, high oil reading and your volt meter is reading high too. We see many of these in my shop. My guess is it's going to need a new board.

I see where over 30 folks have downloaded this picture, someone is working hard to identify this building and it's location. I'll check back around six in the morning and see if anyone is getting one of my Pop Max lures. Again, Good Luck! (This is kind of fun.)
Glenn reply :
Cool. I spotted both issues before reading the rest of the thread. Yay me!

That's a good guess, France has many places honoring WWII veterans. However, it's still anyone's game. I really didn't think it was going to difficult, especially for the veterans out there. Hint: It is in the United States and many soldiers, both young and old visit this place each day, The statue is also regarded as sacred to one branch within the Army.
flipin4bass reply :
This picture was taken the day I visited. I hope it helps someone with the identification. The old guys standing in front were there for a reunion, they served in the same unit as represented by the company guidon (blue flag) in Vietnam. The statue is sometimes called Iron Mike by soldiers. If no one guesses this by six a.m., I'll end your suffering and tell all. Nite.
Rangerphil reply :
National infantry museum Columbus Georgia
OntarioFishingGuy reply :
National infantry museum, in Colombus Georgia.
I believe the statue is called 'Follow Me'.
EDIT: Rangerphil's post just appeared.
Curse you slow internet!
flipin4bass reply :
Way to go Rangerphil! It is the National Infantry Museum, Fort Benning/Columbus, Georgia. By chance, are you a brother infantryman? Please message me your address and I will get a Pop Max out to you. Sorry about that slow internet Ontario, had it been a little faster you would have nailed it. I actually enjoyed this, it doesn't take much to entertain me these days. If the administrator of the forum allows it, I wouldn't mind doing this again...maybe once a month.
Side note: Ft. Benning is the home and training center of the United States Infantry. It is also home to the Airborne School. I made a pilgrimage to Ft. Benning two years ago and visited the new museum for the first time. They have displays and artifacts depicting the life of an infantryman throughout our country's history. The Vietnam and Cold War displays were really nice. I was embarrassed at one point when I was overcome with memories and emotions, but soon found that I wasn't the only old fart there with tears in his eyes. I highly recommend a visit to this place to all of you, veteran or not. You may want to plan for an extra day or two, especially during the spawn...the bass fishing in Georgia is EXCELLENT! "Follow Me"
Rangerphil reply :
Thanks, I am not military but I have several friends who are and my family supports as much as we can. The contest was fun because I had my 15 year old son and wife researching for over a half hour trying to figure it out and in the process we got to see some awesome memorials and statues from around the world. Not a bad way to spend a Saturday evening! Thanks again!

Yup. Mitch is right. I was sitting in a parking spot when I snapped that. I have a grimlin in the dashboard somewhere. Truck works fine but the gauges mess up once in awhile.
I'll have more games coming up in the future.
