Muck Boots 'n' Slickers - Life of a Livestock Hauler

Well, if you go up to the Cherry Creek Groc for a coke, tell Mrs Simmons (if she still works there) HI for me. She worked next door to us at Casters in 06/07.

 

Having a Federal tag has its advantages lmao.

 

Braggart!

 

Interesting.. Does it authorize using that colored fuel that burns real good in dozers and excavator.
Mdot had some log trucks stopped north of here on US 45. Plunging the stick in his tanks and holding it up to see the color.
Stick showed red, driver 's face went white.
Driver was explaining some story about he was nearly out and that was all they had in this tank in the yard.

 

I don't have a nice shop with a surplus of tools like some of our esteemed members on this thread. I've got a two car garage that's half filled with kids toys so I make do.

Went to change the oil on the Honda the other day and the drain plug was rounding. So I ordered these $24 bolt extractors from PlantiumEdge from Amazon. They worked great. I went ahead and bought a new drain plug and crush washer from Honda.


I changed the oil and did a drain and fill on the transmission. It's been 20k since the last one and the plug was pretty clean.



Time to do a little yard work while it's cooling off.

 

It does in fact run well on that special blend lol

 

1995 379 extended hood Peterbilt 3406C with an 18 speed transmission and 4:11 rears.

Customer complaint power seems lacking.


Upon initial test drive found 18 lbs of boost. Pyro not getting over 500 degrees. Very sluggish and feel a 238 Detroit would be a better option but didn’t have one handy.


Check AFRC valve no problem found remove govenor housing find govenor spring guide missing….find govenor spring shim pack missing as well.

the whole story take all night to type so I’ll leave it short and sweet he’s finally happy with it after another shop put rods and mains in it and turned it up…….


Install govenor spring guide and shim pack with an extra flat washer and bam 33 PSI instantly. Now we can pass a 238.

I’d like to hang 7 glow in the dark rainbow colored suction cup deal do’s off that mechanics tool box lid.

 

Wouldn't help him much, he probably can't screw any better than he can turn wrenches.

 

What are the fines and penalties for running on the Budweiser? Is it state or federal, asking for a friend....

 

State had the checkpoint. All dipped. Clean sent on south. Discolored stick wetters were directed off to the side, Coming back by later service truck there draining some and pumpmg pure back in ones processed. Don't know who or what % gets the money.
Just know log haulers from around Corinth /Booneville are very particular with their tank caps.
