The slope that I parked the truck on wasn't that steep, but once I got under it, I knew exactly what happened. The lines go up and over the...
Love, Love Love!!!
Ironic thing is, I use this for personal use. It is new to me and I am setting it up for travel and hauling my personal stuff. It's just a bonus...
Ding, Ding, Ding! We have a winner! haha. Thank you very much! This worked and the truck is now running again. I went out and measured the fuel...
And, the several times I have tried to start it, sometimes it will fire and most times it will not. I know I started with air in the system but...

The last thing I want is an "Ether Baby" so I hate using it on any of my equipment unless it's just for testing purposes. I would much rather plug...

I will look for that in the morning. Thanks!
I did look in the downhill side and much to my surprise, 100% full. The uphill tank, dry. My Peterbilt didn't do this so it was a surprise at he...
She's a 1999 FLD120. Parked her on a side slope 2 days ago. It's a pretty good slope. The left tank is is higher than the right tank. Will the...
One mans's junk is another man's treasure. ;) "Junk" is all relative. :P
I worked in the mining industry for decades and the regs always stated the heavy equipment had to be thoroughly grounded so they always had a...
I haven't mouthed off one bit, I just speak the truth straight and how it really is. At no point have I become mad or frustrated with this...
Just for the fun side of information.... Where I live, the nearest auto parts or hardware store is 55 miles away, one way. The nearest Walmart or...
