Good Morning Nebraska! Woohoo, first one here, and I'm late! It's my normal day off, I'm taking Black in to Performance Ford, Chrissy's husband Joe, is doing an induction cleaning, something that Ford is looking at to be done on all diesels. I'll be curious to see if she runs better afterwards. I'll check in this afternoon and let you guys know.

Have a good day guys!

Morning Pat. Things were really quiet here yesterday. I went wheeling at Tuttle Creek Off Road Area down here with some FTE friends and had a great time. The Old 78 Bronco did a good job, but I'm going to have to fix a couple of body mounts before the body falls off the frame one of these times.

Good morning everyone!

What's that smell??? Could it be fried Ravens??? lol It will be an interesting Superbowl, nobody thought Arizona would make it this far. Hope the Steelers don't get cocky about this game and blow it.

Back to the grind, it's not a holiday where I work.

Hey Jerry, how's it going... I've been there done that with a truck that I wanted to keep, but had to sell. Don't worry, you'll have another one some day.

Hey Jerry, Rob. Selling the ghost!! That sucks Jerry, but I can understand. Can't let it nickel and dime you to death. Well, took Black in and got the induction service done. Met Chrissy's husband Joe, he is a really good guy, knows his stuff on these diesels, so I've found my new diesel tech for Black!

As for the service, I couldn't beleive the amount of carbon/soot that came out of the engine! Hell, it's only got 32,000 on it! But you can tell buy how it accelerates that it made a difference. I'm going to keep track of it for Joe and Jason ( the Wynn's service rep) to see how she does.

thats cool that you got that taken care of pat, should run a hell of a lot better.

Just fired up the ghost and started right up (hasnt ran in 4 days) drove around the block just fine. Shes still drivable. but i did notice the trans is sluggish to shift to drive. If i dont sell it, dont want to but might, then ill just put a new motor and trans in it. Well i have to get going, have some running i have to get done and then go get my uniforms for work. Talk to you all later.
