The weather has been great in Reno, I've been trying to get my truck running better.
It has had a "miss" ever since I got it in may. I bought AE and have found 3 injectors that won't pass the contribution test. I then made the mistake of ordering 3 from pennsicola diesel, 2 were worse than mine and the third made a terrible knock noise. Had to take them all out, they said that they would send more but 0/3 is b/s. I'm looking for another source now.

wind finally died down enough today to go out to the lake, turned out to be a great day. The traffic going over the dam was crazy, it was backed up all the way into Boulder City, should have went the other route, live and learn, still a great day overall.

Good evening Nevada. Still having a hesitation problem at high speed and under load with my truck. I am going to completely go through the vacuum lines and emissions stuff if I get the time this week. Going to build a contraption to test the fuel injectors as well. Hope I find the problem soon, I want to get started on the body and front axle already

Rain? What's that? Had a great race this weekend, 24 finishers in the Hawthorne 225. No accidents! We did have to stake a spectator line at the pits and checkpoints though. 41 this morning on the Mr's way to work in Gabbs, 84 here in sunny AZ at about 6:30 am. Needed a light sweatshirt at the labor day parade yesterday, fall is in the air!

Fall? It seems to me that old man winter wants to make his entrance early this year.

Morning Jeff. I like fall, but I'd be perfectly happy if we just skipped winter after the fall, and went straight to spring!LOL!

You have to move to AZ for that, but watch out for the summers! Happy Wednesday all. I love short weeks, free beer night already!
