    One would hope that they'd make it one year before breaking...this is a '22 unit. The TK's I have had in the past were in the high 1000's on the hour meter before they had issues...even on the one I had at Crete(who didn't maintain them worth a crap).

    Maybe ya got plugged fuel filters. There’s two on that unit. A spin on and and in line filter.

    ####ing sawmills. Nice paved road into the plant, go through the gate, right into the scale where they load you. Pull forward and strap, then apparently they ran out of money for pavement or gravel.

    The road out you just have to send it, I was empty but most trucks are 79k plus going through the mud bog.

    He and I have patched things up for now...one habit I wish I could break him of is him calling me 'sir'...makes me feel older than I already do.

    Can’t blame biodiesel or low sulfur fuel because both of those miracles are saving the children!!!!

    It’s likely because they consider them a high theft risk, we occasionally get that as well.

    And with the way I over secure everything, it would take a lot of time for a nosey thief to uncover enough to figure out what it was.
