    I know what's wrong with it.... Its angry that its cooped up in a garage.

    A purty star like that needs to be working...

    BTW, how many gallons to the mile does she get ? :biggrin_2553:

    Cam is new too with not much mileage on it :biggrin_255:

    Lol that may very well be a possibility.

    Thanks. It would be nice to have a dedicated run for it but with the work we do, it would just be a matter of time before something was damaged and I'm sure the load wouldn't be worth the expense. We have a lot of our fleet parked right now so its not like were in need of a truck to use.

    Lol probably a more accurate way to gauge it vs miles per gallon. :biggrin_2559:

    It's probably just trying to shake the dust off the hood and fenders.

    I just watched your video, My c-15 did that after I changed my fuel filters and it would almost stall out. The o-ring in the fuel primer went bad and was letting air in the fuel line.

    It doesn't do that if I cut the fuel back. I haven't put a gauge on it under load yet but I'm pretty sure I'm drawing the fuel psi down too much.
