    The $30 analysis is worth it to me! It doesn't catch it every time, but it does show patterns over time. Glad you got it back on the road.

    Pete, some of these people out here driving trucks these days are animals not drivers. They belong in the zoo, or out in the jungle. It is unreal the things I see some of them doing.

    I was doing some reading yesterday and it seems a lot of people recommend an oil change at 5k after the rebuild. I got to thinking about it, and I might switch to full synthetic when I do. The main fuel filter I'm sure I'm swapping it out far too often, but the paper filter, the fuel-water separator get dirty quick. Short of adding pressure guages to my dash, how would I know when to switch those?

    I just follow Detroit recommended guidelines. Well I stopped waiting to 50k for oil changes like they say and went to 25-35k as I just barely drive enough miles for the 50k oil changes.

    Wow! With our last combo 48-ft flat the most we could haul was 46,500 with tanks full.
