Hey Rob

No panic on the tester, I know where it is if I need it. Push come to shove, my brother lives up in Edmonton so it can always go that route if needed.

No Off-Road Expo huh! I guess the promoter finally cheesed off enough people! He wasn't to well liked by my understanding.

Not looking good for me to make it-I think I'm heading south for one last kick at the proverbial can at my favorite fishing hole. If plans change, I'll come up for the BS session anyways-my black truck is dead-stock AFAIK and the silver one has enough blowby now to pass for the rad boiling over at times....

There is a good chance now that I may not be able to make it either. Finances are not looking good this month..... hopefully something comes up, but lately it has been all expensive

I will try to make it if i can solve a dead pedal issue. In fact if I can't solve it, it might be good to come anyway and have th experts take a look.....here is the symptoms: when I do a full throttle pull on the highway from low speed, there comes a time in 4th gear when the engine will not speed up no matter how much throttle I give. It dies around 2k rpm. If I hold it steady at that speed for a couple of seconds, more throttle will be available for more speed.
Almost like fuel starvtion. Fuel pressure is good according to banjo bolt guage.
Or sticky rack, or throttle linkage. There is a lot of play in my throttle pivot......I did change my oil after drilling the oil pan to catch debris????

Not sure if I will dyno but I say that everytime and I end up on the dyno everytime!!

I will say that I have a ton of parts to install on my truck but they won't be on before the dyno GTG...

Steve, we should have our lastest twins configuration done for the dyno event. Just finishing up the small bits and pieces. I'm using an adjustable incab wastegate controller on this set-up.

Originally we want to configure two trucks, to run twins for this event.

I will be there, I doubt my truck will be, clutch is badly wounded, and I still need to make another trip with it to Kamloops this weekend.

Pull your plate out and AFC and see if it still happens. I was thinking your AFC could be sticky and not moving ahead. If those check out, it would be a gov/rack issue.

I still plan on being at the dyno, but it might not be the truck I wanted. Turns out a 13mm pump is a little more wild than first expected.

Good one Dave, that made me laugh. Thanks for the leg work on this one.
About the truck Tate, it revs out fine in 1,2 and 3 gear. Does that eliminate gov as the cause?

Jamie and Dave I am sure you will have a good turnout. I wish I could make it...I sure would have liked to get the new dually on the rollers........before I put it on steroids.......lol. That’s what I love about the Alberta crew......we always seem to manage. Please take a bunch of pics and post for the guys who couldn't make it. I appreciate what all you guys are doing. This year has been a slow one for us for gtg’s………..lets smarten up and geter done. Its not at all at what your truck can put down…… but just getting together with the people that enjoy it and shootin the crap is what matters…….ok the numbers are exciting!!!! Keeping a community together is the goal. Hats off to you guys. Again so sorry I couldn’t be there. Hopefully next year or another in the winter sometime!!!! Alberta style….ha ha. Good luck all.
