Dang Bark, that's sure not the way to start a weekend. Sorry about the truck woes.

 

Morning all.

Awright, everyone get up and start fixing those trucks that are broke. It's too nice of a day to spend it all under the hood, so GET GOIN'!



Today is Saturday, June 12th.

's on. Tea and ph00 is on. Donuts are ready, willing and able.

 

I never would've realized you were THAT old....

I'd love to get a day off to do some vehicle maintenance.

 

Dang, fellas. Don't sound good with the vehicles. Sorry to hear...

Mornin from Beaufort, DTR. Nothing special to report.

 

Thanks Rick, I know that, you know that, we all know that. Im just hoping that this dealer is not one of those that go, Well you changed somthing on your truck, all warranties are void....

I for one, wouldnt even bother em if say, I blew the head gasket, that would be my fault. If they can explain how the Smarty and deletes caused the water pump failure then Ill eat that too. Thing is, I dont have much more than today to hassle with em, but, may turn out to be a stand up dealer. We will see.


Im not even gonna make any sheepish remarks about the history lesson....



Ok yes I will

Baaaaaaa!



Morning Yall

 

They'll say that the extra strain on the motor caused the water pump to wear prematurly. Excessive RPM's, faster rpm range...

 

Probably so, Ive already done the research and the 5.9 pump will work. Autozone has em.

 

You are right, Blake - - I would feel VERY sheepish about commenting about the comment that made a comment about the sheepish issue. We don't need any baaaaaad blood on the forum, especially about a major ram like the Janitor. RamScott is a good - - - aaahhhh - - - good -- - - ahhhh - - - he is a good janitor. YEH

Morning gang - - got a decent nights sleep - - didn't wake up until 6 - - what a change even though the DW coughed all night (so she tells me - - guess I am getting hardened to the sound). Good bowl of oatmeal, now grab some coffee and see if I can finally get something done around here today.

Be good and have fun - - it's Saturday. Relax - - enjoy.

Bob

 

Blake, remember to reset your truck's computer to stock before you go in.

 

No need. Was upfront about my mods. Coolest dealer ever. Warrantied under Cummins with no charge. Full report later.

 

Morning DTR.

Rain..

Wiffle ball tourney today..

Gonna get soaked..

Hope I dont blow out an ankle or acl.....again

 

Can not believe how much rain we are getting in Cincy. Have way to much to do outside today, and don't feel like spending the day inside doing laundry and cleaning.

 

Blake, glad they warrantied the pump for you! Nice having a good dealership to go to.

Afternoon DTR, went to cabelas today to renew my fishing license and I ended up walking out with a Mosin-Nagant 91/30. All the number match on it too. They had them on sale for $99 and in VERY good shape! It came with all the tools, bayonet, pouches, and oil can. Got all the cosmoline off and gave it a good cleaning/oiling. I'll post some pictures later.

 

Afternooner yall

Megas back in business and I got a day off of work. Sweet!

 

Ewe, that was bad.

Rats. Nobody in Kenai has the mechanical fuel pump I need. One coming from Anch wont be here until Tues. Guess no clams for me until next months tides. Oh well, better it died in the yard instead of on the beach.

And you only bought ONE. Shame on you.
