and , someone else reported an HPFP failure due to contaminated fuel.. seen anything in your fuel filter? You're pushing a lot of fuel thru from lots of different places.

He hijacked his own thread by starting off talking about his new truck, then switched to his chickens, and then Alaska. He set the tone - we ran with it. Sooo?
Soooo, it's a good thing. Keep 'em guessing. That way no innocent bystanders, right??

WOW...............

This thread is a woven blanket........................
Subjects going every which way........

Been without internet for awhile.......While the Master is away, the children will play......................

We have been through more construction zones and mud roads than I care to remember.......Since Dawson City, I have washed Jolly Green again......to no avail.....
Today she got covered with mud again......... Around here they build the roads out of clay like dirt. Very little gravel.......It gets very slippery....
Yesterday on the Campbell Hwy, there was a stretch that had mud azz hole deep to a tall indian..... and I am supposed to pull the 18,000 lb monster through this.....
4WD Low range....and we made it.........I was dragging the 5th wheel, I am not sure the wheels were rolling.....
1st night out of Dawson City we stopped at a Provincial Campground at Small Salmon Lake.......Huge lake....and we had a nice roomy spot right on the shore of the lake. $12 for the night and free firewood.......

The next night we found an RV field.......Big grassy field with full hookups. Washed Jolly Green and the 5th wheel some.

WE wanted to reach Dawson Creek today......No such luck. Too many delays with all the construction sites.......

We finally found a place to park tonight. Elect and Wi-Fi....... No Cell service.

Now to the subject of "Hi-Jacking"........The subject of this 2-Pager........
"Good folks enjoying time together"

I'll try and post photos........

Welcome aboard........Sailor......BTW: the carrier is a "Bird Farm"........ CVN-71

Fuel filters: The DieselSite double filter/water separator (1st inline) is clean and no water. The Ford Filter/water separator has not produced any water.
So far.......over 5500 miles.....8.7 miles per gallon.

Nice of you fine folks to jump in and make this thread a bunch of fun.......

Roy, I was without internet for three days and I just now got caught up on this thread. Thank you for all of the spectacular pics starting with Chicken, Alaska. I have very much enjoyed your trip. Theresa will remember this adventure the rest of her life. I am not sad that I missed the washing parties!
