Yeah those carburetors will get you every time.

 

Someone with 50k in savings and driving a LP truck??...So this "friend" of yours has a good credit rating and has enough solvency to mass 50 thousand dollars in an account someplace yet he or she drives a truck they don't own, and decisions about the truck are made by Transport America ? Then there's this wonder shop who can replace a brand new engine in 4 days for 50 THOUSAND dollars? Now all of a sudden carburetors are magically used on your friend's priceless show engine? ...Geesh..at least write something believable. ....LOL

Wait...let me guess...your friend has less than 5 years total driving experience (probably less than 1) yet they have 50 grand in the bank and know that 50k will stop the knocking from the engine if a Nascar fast shop can replace their engine in 4 days?
Please help me understand because I've obviously missed a lot of information during my last three decades.

 

I recovered truck a year ago from a shop that had a new motor put in. It was at that shop for 6 weeks before it was done.

Never knew a diesel motor had a carburetor.

No need to lie about the reason you didn't go with Transport America. Just man (or woman) up and admit that they denied you and you got stuck going to a known #### company for #### pay.

 

Sorry friend, more than likely your driver buddy doesn't own anything. When you have this piece of paper (see above) in your possession, with YOUR name on it,,then you OWN your truck. Believe me, no one makes maintenance decisions about my truck but me.

 

After you have been around the industry a little longer you will probably encounter plenty of shops who not only "install"--but overhaul, repair and recondition engines in many different types of equipment like gas, propane, diesel powered forklifts, mining equipment, construction equipment, stationary power plants, generators, farming equipment...the list goes on.
Cummins is a manufacturer of engines, they also operate several shops around the country who install the engines they produce, so they are are both maintainers AND producers of several makes and models of engines used in several different business platforms. There are cummins engines aboard cruise ships.

Takes time to see things, you'll get there, one day at a time. Be safe.
