    This guy unloading is Freakin stupid.

    He barely has his doors open, it’s been two hours on rice, just got done with first hopper.
    Turned his old pos international off, now it won’t start.

    I told him I had jumper cables, he KNOWS that’ll fry his ECM.
    So...
    They hooked a tractor with a strap to his FRONT axle..(Yes Steer axle)
    He’s dollied trailer down.. didn’t pull pin.. so they scooted everything.. the lil tractor popped a wheelie, bout flipped..

    Then, they got him to pull the pin, he’s riding the brakes while they are trying to pull start.


    Now he’s got it in gear while they are trying to pull start and dragging wheels, front axle is rolling backwards..

    They got him to put it in N and now he’s grinding trying to cram it into gear while they’re pulling.

    I am sitting here in my truck with my “ECM Killing Jumper Cables.”

    I'd ask our mechanics how to clear those stored values, and if a simple forced regen at a TA will reset them.

    He’s lucky they didn’t yank his front axle off. I’ve heard that excuse, as a reason not to give me a jump, when I’m sure they knew better. Never had anyone refuse a jump though. He really is stupid.

    I was going thru how to fix it. I need dddl software. A cap to isolate an injector. Data link, new computer. There is test that you check each injector by process of elimination. If they all pass it's the pump.

    It's deleted so regen won't do anything. It used to throw the code every two months. The mil would clear up. Now I want to get it fixed since it's more common, ect....

    I don’t do the k cups. But have ordered it from Walmart twice. 8 bags, $38. Has to be at least $35 for free shipping. It’s always been 2 day shipping, both times it came next day. This time it was due Tuesday, so if it comes tomorrow, it’ll be 4 days late. But don’t be late for a Walmart DC delivery.

    Of all the things an experienced trucker should be afraid of;
    it is a set of state scales, and the problems that may lurk there.
    (Did enjoy cruising down broadway in W. Memphis and viewing the I55 set off to the right.)
