    I’ve been trying to figure this out since last night man; I think it’s the angle of the foldable ramps, they’re not fully extended because the ground is uneven and maybe if you tried to load it like that the pressure would cause them to break? My best guess; just had to post that! :D

    I busted out laughing at your last post, “I’m a Texas resident” rofl Hey @HillbillyDeluxeTruck show the man around would ya.
    “Here’s the living room”
    “Sweet”
    “Here’s the kitchen”
    “Yummy”
    “Here’s the garage”
    “Oh hell yeah”
    “Now here’s the exit”
    “Wait what?”

    Stop appling stock factory practices to a non stock engine.

    Adv timming only to a point lowers smoke. You have added fuel. Too much fuel in a advanced condition causes black smoke. Black smoke is fuel burning at or after TDC, or in the manifold and turbo. It adds no power.

    Yes you are correct what happened is your loading the cyclinder with a larger volume of air and fuel backing it up some. Simple fuel makes boost. You have to control it. Any common advise from gas engine guys you can toss out the window.

    I'm no tractor guy. However I know we're 2 JD tractors set with the gas/diesel engines. But do not compair in size to that monster. Looks like a big piece of equipment.

    What are you teasing us with?

    I preferred it to 63. Used to run 881/36/28/855/852 thru mundare to hwy 16. That extra 45 min was on 16. Gravy. Would then jump on the range road straight the house.
    1/10th the traffic.
    If conditions were bad or stupid was on the highway it could get spooky.
    Between commuting for 14 years every 5 days and 7 years of trucking there, I can say I've prolly seen it all. Lol

    I honestly only ever had 1 close call on 63. I always hit 63 southbound so I'd be in Grassland by 6 am so I could beat the rush of southbound idiots.
