  1. My old SnapOn guy got me that . It was around 20 years ago. It is handy . That and the camera. The resolution on that is really good and it can interface with something with a bigger screen
  2. and in case you're kick'n it old school avoid some guess work
  3. CH never really was big enough to be a "good" tri-axle chassis. They only got so big.....but I've seen plenty made into them . Not ideal, but they work. Not sure where this truck is either, maybe weight limits aren't so high. The hours sound sorta high, but may or may not mean a lot about how much life is left in it. I don't see a black or white answer for this guy's question by reading some text , easier to give him an evaluation (opinion) actually seeing the truck.
  4. Yes and again by the porta potties . Sorta looks like maybe experiencing a wedgey
  5. Nowadays there's guys (?) that call a truck with a manual transmission a "shifter truck " then you might hear them say something like " they wanted me to drive 62, but that's a shifter truck...it's not on my license, so I got the day off "
  6. Lots of those guys never drove a truck with no power steering, let alone two sticks.....or know what to do with them.
  7. I'm gonna look again. Only so I can see what it is you're describing......just for good measure
  8. Those engines , the cam gear isn't keyed. But if it did move a little everything else would be off too. Not just one cylinder.
  9. It's a good show. Over here they were a really popular truck that guys liked. Seems like every year a few more seem to materialize. Maybe I view it that way cause I remember them from when I was young or cause my first truck was one. Draws trucks ( all Brockway ) from several states and even out of the country.
  10. ???? I was referring to the foot traffic where all the cars were 😇
  11. This one has me curious now.
  12. I'm starting to notice a pattern here 🤔
  13. I remember years back a guy used to not pay attention to the injector washers (at the tip) Those engines made some odd noises.
  14. 😳 Now wait a minute..... never said it was a him (lol)
  15. Just an FYI I once got a slap for making a comment like that about someone's backyard
  16. There's an adapter that goes in the injector hole and reaches in there then a piece that screws in the hold down hole with a pipe thread port in it. So you need to remove the injector to test
  17. It's a lot easier than get'n flashed ...least I think so.
  18. Shoulda done a leak down test on it before taking the head off. Ruled out any compression related ailments. Then go to fuel delivery.
  19. I have a Lincoln auto darkening helmet. It has provisions to slide the cheater in and it's light compared to it's size (comfy) They are great, makes life a lot easier when welding. I'm still reluctant to start without a little test look at the sun first (lol) Get'n flashed isn't much fun
  20. That must have been quite the truck when it was new. Still impressive looking.
  21. That's probably that Francis guy in Ohio
  22. I think there's definitely something in the cam area failed on this guy's engine.
  23. If a face came off a lifter, you'll have a hard time seeing that from the top. Pan needs to come off. Those on occasion come off in only a couple pieces sometimes too big to fit out the drain plug.
  24. You'd like it. Lots of nice trucks and lots of good people. If you happen to be able there when the weather is good it makes a great show even better.
