I see to have the devils luck. I've been given the choice: truck leaves the property or we leave the duplex. Some days I just can't win.

Nope, none taken at all. Just wish I could put it in the back yard. The gate is big enough to park it in our measly little side yard (neighbors get all the back yard, wtf?) Anybody near me have a trailer and driveway I can borrow? I'd even rent the space if needed..

Hoping to get the trans on it tomorrow, but my helper ditched me, so it might not work as I'm hoping it will.

At least your injectors aren't puttin' out to much Diesel Fuel, which results in it running rich, which smells like burning oil...
Well, at least that's what I think is goin' on with our Diesel.

An over fueling diesel smells like unburned fuel, not like burning oil.

If it smells like burning oil, it's probably burning oil.
