That's some tough grease. At least you know of something that will work.

That sucks they use that crap. Good idea to keep it full though.

BEEP BEEP!

Logged in for the first time in quite a while and saw a PM from Clint.

Truck has been running so well - I had no reason to hop on FTE. May now have a fuel pressure issue - so I hopped back on to say hello. Fuel Pressure gauge will be here Wednesday, so should know then if I need a new pump or not.

Everything good beyond that. Our 3 year old is now toilet trained, and we are ready to get the camper back out!

Hope all is well!!
