    It seams to be a prevalent issue on docks where outside lumper/unloader services are used, like union places.

    The muddy driveway. One moment my hands just wont take a steady pic. The next no problem. Sigh

    I create wheel ruts so the rain wont make the whole drive way a mess

    Update...

    The KW (1,075,000 miles) needs a head gasket.

    Now.
    Questions
    1.A), shall we change just the gasket.

    2.B)Inframe it with oil pump & all gaskets

    3.) Sale it and pass the problem onto someone else as it was done once before

    I’m leaning towards 2, but I told them to 1 price the kit, tell me what they’d do it for

    But I’m now thinking open her up and see condition of the rest of the motor too.

    Anyway, thoughts other than ...

    #2. Unless your taking it to a dealer for trade in. Then pass it along as they will only give you 25% of the real value

    Inframe, or Auction. Beware of the $23 inframe. I forgot was it an ISX?

    I doubt it’s just a gasket. Probably a cracked head, or dropped Liner. If it’s only a head gasket on one head, and heads still good. Liners are still up, maybe it just needs a gasket.

    Same here. Yesterday was the deadline. Mine are still taped in the vent windows. Maybe I’ll put them on today. Finally quit taining. I’ve got all day, since getting rescheduled for tomorrow morning.

    How do you not overhaul that at 1.1 million as long as you're taking the head off?
