Where is everyone #5

Randy Travis “I thought he walked on water” probably gets to me as much as anything. Reminds me of my Papaw.

 

Dang it man. One of these days you’ll get all them wires fixed up in good shape and quit having electrical problems.

‘Least that’s what I keep telling myself anyway.

 

It's frustrating because we know the value of a properly done job, it's so much cleaner and the fix will last year's and years if you grease it and use heatshrink.

All the issues I've chased on this truck and still am chasing, I'm 100% certain fall back on electrical problems...

The missing and cutting out and now on top of that occasionally it will act like someone turned the key off and back on as I'm going down the highway, truck will cut out hard and then all my gauges will do their self check.

As soon as this weather breaks, I'm buying new engine harnesses and injector harness as well as replacing all the main power/ground wires to the fuse block.

 

Was his name Mike Lol. Wrench twister at EZ where I worked "Mike" was the worst I ever seen ! Every trailer we had was covered in blue butt connectors, I hate even seeing those things to this day! If the job was done correctly and sealed up was one thing, but this 1/2 /\ && way of doing things cost $$$ on down the road!

I spent many nights between WV & Alabama, Mississippi, NY, and even Massachusetts in a rest area or truck stop, working on electrical problems that raise their ugly heads along the way. And I guarantee you one thing.... If there is an unsealed connection, just run north during winter when the salt is out! It will show up in no time and the hunt is on!

 

Ok, at the risk of looking like an idiot and the fact I know absolutely nothing about Diesel's and I'm not even pretending too, I had this exact same problem on my gas engine in my pick up truck and it ended up being a Cam position sensor. I don't even know if Diesel's have them and I didn't even know I had such a thing in mine but it's fixed now.

Just my .01 worth of knowledge.

 

Always liked a lot of lights. Never owned one I didn't add lights to. Done my share of hackin to see em burn in the chrome shop lot, helluva price to pay. Nothin sux worse than tryin to find the problem then fix the problem created by a jack ###. You may be in a hurry tonight but guarantee it will bite you worse later.


Put 63 head of 7 weights on this morning, made a ex military guy in a white volvo so mad he was spitting on him self in the fuel island. I made fun of the ex military comment from the seat, when he said he told me that to save my life he had my curiosity peeked. Told me how lucky I am on the radio as he drove off. Ima buy some lotto tickets fa shore.

 

I've never done any Bullhaulin, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night. Is that pretty close to 44k?

 

Yes Sir pretty close.

 

Could be, there was suspicion of this with my other issues, I need to look into it.

 

I'm not familiar where your battery box is, but is there a chance some wires or cables have chaffed or rubbed through coming out of that box?
