Howdy John! How ya doing? We're buying a house in Elk Point, SD, about 15 miles north of the Iowa/SD border on I-29... seems like a nice little town 'cept for all the stupid deposits every utility company wants!
I've never had one of these old Fords that liked to start when it was below about 10 degrees... My latest one seems to do ok now that I put a decent battery in it. But, just discovered the ground cable is starting to fray... always some little thing waiting to bite me!

) changed the fuel filters on friday, it's running okay now. Man, that really rattled my faith in diesels in cold weather. I know it's just the fuel, but that's a vulnerability I could do without!!
