Happy Friday everyone...
I made the mistake of watching the Steelers humiliate themselves last night... five losses in a row! Too bad Gary and Dallas aren't around to give me crap about it. I think the NFL should rework the league so that Detroit and the Seahawks can come get a win against the Steelers too!

jerry,
there not bad engines. the glow plugs are easy to get to. the only problem that i have seen is fuel leaks. on the return side.. they still have a mechanical fuel pump and an jection pump. and an easy engine to rebuild too. its like rebuilding a gas engine... almost. i think the fuel milage is up around 20 mpg...

a little info on the non-turbo 7.3: they get around 17 mpg. when you add a turbo to it, it jumps up around 20 to 21, and the torque goes up from 350 to 500. not to mention, that once running, the old IDIs dont need electricity to run, so if your alternator goes, you can still go. wait: i take that back. if you switch the fuel shutoff to a mechanical from the electric, ignition operated one, then you dont need electricity, and you could even turn the key off and the truck would run perfectly normal.
Hey Rob, you might be on to something there, we all know that the steelers suck, about time your realizing it though
A good late morning to all that stops by this morning!!

Good morning Rob. Well, at least the chef's were able to get in on that!

about 3 weeks ago one of our drivers came up and over a levy and drove off the ramp, laid the loaded dumptruck on its side, should be fixed today, needless to say he was let go. but since it is an Army Corp job, we had to review all the safety stuff.
