And you can actually go to my web site Home and read how it all came to be.

 

It makes sense. And I like it.

 

Cody, that's what it's all about my friend. Norton, there you go, Cody Childress and Chris are near you in Bryan. I'm certain they can help. And both are well qualified. And Chris is the inmate I was refering to.

 

Ya me and chris help other guys here out all the time. I am a soon to be an inmate!!! LOL "Norton Just pm me if you ever need anything and will try and meet you!

 

If you pick it up...and dont need the B&W GN hitch I will take it off your hands...it will help pay for repairs anyhow.Just let me know

 

Cody you should be an honerary inmate for 2 reasons...First, your name kicks *** of course. Second, we spend so much time on the phone together, you might as well be here. LOL But, you gotta follow the rule, and I'm waiting on you to get here!.

Norton, I don't know why I keep saying they are near you. Your closer to me than them. BURTON, NOT BRYAN!!!!!!! DAMNIT GET IT STRAIGHT CODY!!!!! LOL

None the less, there are people in place to help you get your problems solved, I guarentee it.

 

Actually it's just about 51 miles exactly from my driveway to Bryan, so technically they are closer. I'll be in Bryan tomorrow to pick up that truck.

 

That's where I got that from!!!!!!

 

Looks like we have another future DRD member???

 

Where is it at in Bryan might have to get it first. lol

 

Hahaha! Too late. Got it today. It's definitely not the purdiest thing, but it shore is strong. I'm liking it. Gonna go tomorrow and see about new tires.

Rubber Duck, there is definitely a puddle of oil on top of the motor. If it was a gasser I'd say on top of the intake. I don't know what to call it now, what with me knowing zero about diesels and all. So for sure not a rear main seal leak. I'll take a closer look at it in the morning.

One thing I do know about diesels -- because of the high compression and the demands made on the starter, a reman starter cost me $318.

 

Get some super clean its in a purpel jug and spray it on the engine and wash it off so you can see where it is coming from.

 

Norton, I'm sure we will get that leak figured out. As for the starter, you need to ask about that here and I'm certain we can find better ones cheaper. The SD starters are higher torque than ours and is an upgrade from what I understand.

And Cody is right, you can clean the engine, but don't use high pressure.

 

I recently bought a reman Napa Stater for a 97 PSD for $175 and I thought that was ridiculous. You are right about the price difference between diesels and gas, I bought a reman starter for a 76 Ford 390 a year ago for $30.

 

wow, possibly 2 future new DRD inmates. dang that means i finally might get to see Cody C.'s truck in person. LoL. i love that truck, btw. that is if it's a stick. LoL.

Norton, def. clean the motor up to see where the oil is coming from. but like cody(rubberduck) said, DON'T USE HIGH PRESSURE!!! the pressure of a garden hose is plenty.
