  1. glad to hear it's working. was going to suggest with window up , a piece of thin flat stock ((jimmy stick))slid down window slot can usually get to the linkage . also can of penetrating oil with flex extension can spray door linkage from top through window door channel ,
  2. BIRTHDAY BEST OTHER DOG
  3. you are joking ??? I don't abbreviate transmission any more . calling it a trans will tick someone off.
  4. I had to give up beer years ago. talking to a bartender once that lost a lot of weigh and she looked great. she told me gave up on the beer. always favored the Yuengling. the Polish beer came in larger bottles one bottle same as 1 1/2 regular . with the present meds even the JD/ yukon has been tapered off.
  5. real nice looking unit. bet the secret location of the other 49 trucks won't be revealed ' LOL
  6. no matter what type of trailer in question, the big question while bottomed out on train tracks is ; how much fu--in time before train shows up. the set back on the 1/25th beam trailer I'm building IS the gooseneck operation. have been studying many photos . neck is built . detach/ connect portion is involved. 3- cyls to raise lower.
  7. first I heard of this "furry" situation. why I don't watch much TV or news:(except the weather channel )Stephanie does a great job with weather and moral boost. hope this furry thing =is limited to the wacko two-legged. have been checking out the locate rescue/ shelters for a 4 (that's FOUR ) legged friend-cat/kitten . closing in on 72 with bad knees/hips and other aliments that showed up on x-rays monday, a dog is out of the question. we had a rescue husky / Shepard from pup to 16 yrs old. I can't walk/ chase a new puppy and don't want the trauma again of putting down a senior dog. so a cat works for me; not the wife. guess she doesn't want a straight pussy in the house !!!!🤣🤣
  8. reading this post a couple days later. been occupied else where lately . reread every comment at least twice while racking the " micro films " in brain cells. Dam ; can't remember . the 5 degrees BTDC bosh pump correct. 1 1/4 cut box wrench for removing #1 plunger remember. rest of numbers drawing a blank.
  9. major/ sad reality of another depression is the chaotic conditions which take place will be negative beyond our wildest dreams. unlike the '29/30 depression; way tooo many people today are "rich" only on a computer screen .. people are maxed out on credit cards/ very few know how to actually work with their hands (not including key pad).. if the phone system is compromised . mass shooting will be a daily . it's a movie but mad max shows possible future. back in 29 the easiest way to become richer was to make the majority of working class poorer. hopefully I won't be around WHEN it happens. was informed by a bank personal yr ago the coin shortage was fabricated by the government; no such shortage was real;; WHY? paper dollar basically is worthless , tell wife keep all the coins we have will need them . as I said before the record from the '60's; Johhny sea == day for decision says it all.
  10. was a little confused reading the spinner came out in '86 till i back spaced a few more post. reading scania had them for yrs. I do remember removing / taking the filter apart and scraping the sludge , back in '70's. must have been on the scania .
  11. can't help on history , sure got excited reading it was in CT till I saw yr it was posted.😢
  12. can't help with the trans at this time but- 1- real sharp looking unit , 2- how is the twin stack set up done. open door blocks view.
  13. a "HEADliner"is like an auction PIECE, bidding for TV fame is short lived , most networks want ratings ; will bid and pay for those ratings.
  14. have to agree with wire tracing to be sure. museum might send info of what it was built as : not what someone may have changed it over to through the yrs. you looking to make it an original then museum info important.
  15. she will be all set for a while by the $$$ being made doing talk shows..
  16. have seen filters changed didn't realize old filter rubber washer stayed on base. didn't seal properly. statement " new filters WHEN it started acting up. can translate that sentence a number of ways ::: new filters BECAUSE it was acting up // or started acting up AFTER new filters. !!
  17. what model fan hub is used in todays world?? remember one set up would take two bolts threaded into front locking fan to hub . possibly that set up used air to engage the fan. ??
  18. what model fan is on your engine ?? viscous fan fluid controlled
  19. "98 kinda new for me, back in the day of the horton fan clutch they were air operated having a shutterstat controlling air flow. it took air to disengage the fan. made that way should there be an issue with lack of air the fan stayed on. to put in a over ride meant installing a switch going to output side of shutterstat. keepin mind this was before all the computer/ module / back feed stuff now.
  20. tank vent a good possibility if one tank unit. bad vent think it should run a tad longer ; remove fuel cap see if it runs longer.
  21. one fuel tank or two ?? two tanks must have top mount equalizer fitting . to wait 10 mins / crank and restart ? i go with the air leak on suction line ; seems odd it would pick up fuel and restart if fuel was draining back to tank . were supply lines replaced to correct loosing fuel issue ? hair line crack on first primary filter base (suction side )??
  22. the idea of fair trials ended back in the western days. fair trial was when two people went out in the street and paced off 40 ft fastest shot won. no one seems to consider the $$$$$ wasted for all the trial legal crap just for the gain of a few with power gain in mind.
  23. my wife is talking of getting out of renting and buying AGAIN. well after spending the day at my daughters working on house they just bought yesterday ::: renting works for me. can't bend or move well now. ""Dad , sink has a problem " == well who's going to bend that far down under sink !!! LOL with the help of an excavator 2 yrs ago where we are now has a very private swimming hole . oh ya
  24. Sharpe looking profile picture. two trucks red -green ; so different yet so much the same .
  25. why wasn't the JFK or clinton issues of same nature made out to be such a big deal . times changing and this makes a distraction to the "rising " covid numbers while closing in on up coming election. once again === sorry grandkids
