    I love when an agent says “you don’t need an appointment this stuff is critical they’ll work you in early on Wednesday”, turns into a midnight appointment and they get your 11 pallets off at 0400. Yay!

    Add a quart (or enough to dip tip), crank over to see free, then crank and idle a little while. You may be surprised, takes a little while sometimes to run plumb out...

    Mega carriers should not be allowed to travel with their spouses in big trucks.

    "Abject" poverty, worse than being in regular poverty.

    Investigate terms of checking... Stop engine on level, let set 15+ minutes, check and record/remember. Same way each time. You could have been good unlevel in FL and or bad unlevel here. Rested in FL, hot stop here
    More pore conclusions are reached by wildly random tests.
    I had a 1988/89 ISUZU 4 cyl pickup. Dealer salesman told me the day I picked up, pull the dipstick, it will be dry... Stick it back and pull again to get a reading. Thing was always that way and whoever has it is still running.
