    another "for lack of explanation/words" story = try working at a Mack dealership ,going on almost every road call to hear "why does a Mack dealership have a Diamond T wrecker ?" you just give up trying to give answers. the temptation was there to remove the Diamond T front logo and install a Mack emblem. fortunately with the major help from a great co-worker ++Doug Allen ; we talked management into update the Diamond to a good used B model.

    for me it was Southbury high school='65- -69. I 84 within sight. cold winter day sitting in mechanical drawing class(where I designed a 3d drawing of a truck) had window slightly open and kid next to me bitched to teacher he was cold. as I was being lectured by teacher a truck roared up I 84++ I turned to look at truck instead of teacher! next thing an eraser was slamming my head : i was told " you like those trucks so much go stand outside and take an F for the day. it was cold and I didn't have a jacket. was worth every minute .LOL

    Yukon fire at 100 proof much better than Yukon 125 ;; personal idea only .LOL since the conversation on Moxie took place , have been looking for it only to find empty spots where it should be, never paid attention to it before.

    ingenuity at it's best for sure; one thing about age experience ;;you always look for a way to do projects with less physical labor involved.

    Need not say another word. working with welder all day again at farm ; the monsoon came in quick and drenching. couldn't get out a head of it. the ole jeep plowed rain like never before. positive was Yukon Jack was waiting to welcome me back. wasn't beer O'clock but Yukon O'clock . never did a remove/ replace motor cycle tire. the smaller the tire bigger P I A they seem. small garden tire worse compared to truck / farm tractor tire.

    not knowing why it sat for year and a half OR WHY it has been started NOW :: my personal recommendation is to slightly tap it while running to see if it corrects itself. this unit going into service ??? THEN put $$$ into it. put new governor and misc. $$ into so it can sit another year is like a government operation .
