What a beautiful Saturday! hope everyone can get out and enjoy it.

I'll be out of work by 4, then home to stand in the corner and sort through the garage. Way to much clutter in there. LOL

3 1/2 hours to go, then 10 kids (all 5yrs old) coming over for daughters birthday party.

I will be looking for the octagon shaped bar with 8 corners later.

Jasmine just wait until they grow up and move. Takes a little while to get used to but when you do it's a whole new world. Al is going to hit it hard, looking for 8 corners! Just got done doing some of my therapy exercises. I don't think Herself will be helping anymore. I feel like Ali gave me one to the stomach. She even giggled!

Thanks for the wishes of luck Jasmin,

Finally got one drum off this mornin, after quite a while with the 3pounder. And to my surprise the rears weren't as bad as I expected, cleaned em up adjusted em out and on the road again. The axle seal looks like it is starting to leak though(fix next time)

Now on to my regular weekend activities Which will most likely be lawn, laundry, and schrounging up something for the evening to do.

Well I survived.

I say forget the corners tonight. I'm thinking of the open water and being on a boat. Sorry, go to go. I hear my captain calling, and I'm bringing the coke cola.....

Anyone in Mackinaw? Truck died right before the bridge...I'm stuck at the marathon station. I had the cruise set at 65 pulling my travel trailer and hit the brake to turn it off to slow down to 55. As it got to 55, I tried to give it throttle to maintain speed and no response. I put it in neutral and it shut right down. Cranks fine but no start. I see the glow plug light on the dash illuminate, but don't hear the plugs anymore. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Feel free to call.2483427240.

Wonderful.

Need to know more about the truck.. what year, any Mods.. it is apparently a Diesel.

Check fuses meanwhile, in particular the fuse for the Fuel bowl heater, the next thing would be a CPS sensor if a 99-03 7.3

I see you are on line right now, this is why I did not call.
