    Mines been sputtering since my overhaul. Thought it was sucking air. But, I had treated it with algae cleaner. I’ve since double dosed it, and let it sit for another 2 months. Hasn’t sputtered once in 4000 miles. Must have loosened everything up finally. Last time I changed fuel filters, I finally saw some black floating slime. Must have been blocking the pick up. I’m going to keep treating it. Maybe take tanks off this summer and clean real good. Current filters almost ready to change. Curious to see if there’s any more slime. I’m careful to work on more than 1 thing at a time. Too easy to get lost in the process. Amazing how some things can straighten themselves out. Often a simple thing. Too often jump to major conclusions. Lol.

    Oh yeah, my WS had copper lines with coolant heating inside of tanks. It had a Cat. It was Pretty common. Since I got a Detroit, no need. Hot fuel return takes cate of that. All you got to do is get it started, Lol. Once it’s running, won’t gel.

    Well, I delivered the load of the decade. Now waiting on the load of the century. I’ll believe it when I see it. Broker says customers being cheap, OK, hmmm. When he told me the rate, I almost choked on my coffee. I don’t know if he was being sarcastic or what, I asked him to repeat it. Agreed to take it. Just trying to play it cool, and as my Mother used to say, “act like you have good sense”. Lol. Might show up back home with that new Jeep.

    Fiesty bunch on WIIS lately. Must be the weather. Truck Cabin Fever? I’ve been enjoying the challenge. Light loads, snow, and lousy drive tires. What’s not to Love? Lol. 16 degrees, sunny, feels like a heat wave

    Have you considered consulting a medical professional about that?
