Morning everyone! Cloudy but not too bad and going to finish building the roof on the cabana. Then going to spend time with the misses since its out 17 year anniversary.

 

im leaving this afternoon to go to mississipi till sunday night.

 

Good morning Tennessee! It looks like it's going to be another beautiful day in paradise!

 

Morning! Its a wonderful sunday morning and coffee is good!

 

Oh got the roof and sides on the cabana and putting the shingles on. I should have it done after church today....woohoo.

 

Should have used cedar shakes since it's a small job.

 

I hit 15,000 miles yesterday, so today was F-day (filter day). I had already picked up 4 gallons of oil, an oil filter, both fuel filters, and an air filter. I started out changing the oil and filter. Pretty straightforward. Then I replaced the fuel filter under the truck. Easy enough. Then I removed the fuel filter under the hood and pumped the air out of the system by cycling the key, or so I thought. I installed the new fuel filter, and the truck wouldn't start. I finally figured out that I had air somewhere in the system. When looking for the "high point" in the fuel system, I found a small schrader valve on top of the fuel cooler. I removed it and cycled the key until clear diesel ran out of the location where the schrader valve was. I reinstalled the schrader valve, and the truck started right up. Then I replaced the air filter, even though the info center still tells me that it is still good.

Air filter - $50
Fuel filters - $50
Oil filter - $15
Oil (4 gallons of full synthetic Rotella 5w-40)- $85
Total for all maintenance - $200

I don't think $200 is bad for full synthetic oil change, air filter, and both fuel filters.

 

Good Morning All.....


Hope everyone had a great weekend!

 

Good job freeky, I remember the days of driving my F250 up on ramps and putting the 5 gal bucket under and letting the river of Rotella flow!
