    Lets see what y'all think about this...

    '96 W900 12.7 Detroit

    Pulled into the yard Sat night and when I shut the truck off and got out, I could hear something pouring out underneath. I look under. I can smell diesel and see it pouring onto the ground, so ruptured fuel line is my guess. Being that Ive got the flu I said F it and will worry about it later. So yesterday morning I had one of my drivers pick up one of our stepdecks here at the house. I fired up my truck and let it idle for a min then pulled out from under the trailer. No fuel poured out of the line.

    So here is my thought/fear. Rupture in the line is big enough that it wont suck fuel and will only suck air now, possibly causing it to run out of fuel.

    100% agree!!! I try to relocate as many critters as I can, unless it's a feral cat. I take those to the animal shelter and they deal with them. Most of them are tomcats that just need cut and can be turned back out for rodent control.

    Get a piece of diamond plate or something shiney. Build a box around it with a 1" hole make sure what's shiney won't fit back thru, when he reaches in to get it he won't turn it loose. How you pick the mad ####### up and release him down stream is up to you lmao
