I've never gelled up to the point where it just absolutely won't run, but a couple times have lost power and only making about 1/2 the boost it should. One of those times was my own fault, I had the switch for the fuel filter heat turned on, but I didn't know it till later that a month earlier when I'd been in the dash changing another switch that the fuel heat switch had come unplugged.

Maybe I was just lucky, but it seemed like when I first started driving, I hardly ever used any fuel treatment and didn't have any problems. Then they came out with low sulfur diesel and biodiesel and it seems alot more tempermental about trying to gel.
When and where did they build this speedway? I've got a 2007 atlas I'm looking at and I can't find Sparta or the speedway on it? I've been across I-24 several times and I think there's a track you go by near KY Lake, but I know that's not the one you're talking about.Big John Thanks this. -
NASCAR won't give KY a Cup race as long as there is still a lawsuit pending . I recently read a couple of former minority owners refuse to let the suit drop .

It's on I-71 about halfway between Louisville and Cincinnati . You can see it off the west side of the interstate .

Too cold last week, so son wasnt looking for any work very hard!(lol) Supposed to haul a couple of loads of fertilizer, north from Enid, but was looking for something to haul down that way so wouldnt have to run empty. I sent you a PM. He really wants to haul cattle, and can do so with his buddy we run under, but since I own the grain trailer, I would rather him haul grain when available.
He wants to go to Tulsa sometime this week and look at a newer truck he has spyed.

I don't have a fuel heater...sure makes a difference. Since this low sulfur came out I have to use additives. I've had the fuel filters freeze up twice when I didn't.

I used the Diesel Power cheap-o stuff from WalMart the last time, and it's worked well enough. Normally I'll use Howe's, FPPF, or Lucas, and they all work well too. I've found a few places that give case discounts over the internet - autobarn is one of them - good prices on some brands (dirt cheap actually). It's been near 0 a few nights here in GA, and after the block heater for a few hours, the truck starts right up every time.

Is everyone busy this week or are you slow? I am waiting on dispatch for a load, sitting in Blytheville, AR and no freight.
