  1. take the cluster out and clean the ground post on the cab frame. It's to the left, take the star washer out and toss it. trim any heatshrink glue that may have oozed out and re=install it. also do the same at the fues panel on the right side and also check the ground breaker on the firewall next to the starter relay, clean the frame ground behind the left steer tire and the big 5/8" ground bolt on the engine block in front of the starter... joey...
  2. well I was doing pretty good with Covid, until this morning. Day 7... Now I feel as bad as day 2 when it really came on.. so I guess I will set here and chat with my worldwide bud's... I have 2 more small engines in my shop to build, maybe later...Jojo,,, so glad I bought and used a hundred masks...
  3. well, i'm curious.. because to me it sounds fine, but then again, I am not a good study on this, i just knew when I was running a bit hot and would adjust as I went... It' been a while.... looking forward to some more comments just caus' jojo
  4. I know I steered this ship into Covid, just one more thing..... With all the masks, dissinfectant sprays, and gloves and such.... Is our immune system going to get so weak that we may die from a cough or a sneeze or a Boo Boo on the knee?? jojo
  5. 👍 youre good... theres plenty of us here to help you when needed... jojo
  6. So I just read an article on kickbacks for covid diag's.... Snopes reports that hospitals get $13,000.00/ death.... and $39,000.00/ death if they were on a ventilator. I never heard of snopes, and didn't find much more said about it, however there was a printed interview with Lord Fauci about this... I dont know how to post the link.. just curious if I just found some B.S. or truth...
  7. So true.. I only gave 10 years in the dealership. I knew quality was not job 1 for a while, but when my Dealership wouldnt entertain promoting me with a combined total of 20 years at the time on Macks,. I even made "Tech of the month" 7 out of 11 months and also made "Tech of the year" for 2018, because of the quality and efficiency of my work. instead they hired a guy who had a car repair garage, and never even drove a truck, forget working on one... I knew right away, I just needed to concentrate on doing it for myself and working on older trucks. I am currently building a 3 cyl. john deere engine in my shop and my customer is bringing me 2 more today. so I am here, chatting with you guys while I wait for them to arrive.. Go Bulldog! Jojo
  8. Both trannys are good. I'm always partial to the Mack, very strong... Keep the air supply to the Eaton shuttle valve and filter regulator clean, to lengthen synchro life.. The 300 series Mack has a few small differences from the 200 series. One is the sliding clutches are finer splined, I believe this helped smooth out gear selection, since macks tend to be a challange early on for Eaton drivers.. No biggie... AS always, good air system maintainance and clean oil, oh yeah.... and No slip seating,,,, and either trans will do a great job... I look forward to seeing other opinions.. Jojo
  9. howdy, Just curious? did you get the answer you were looking for? jojo
  10. to tell you the truth, i never checked. I always thought that if fuel pressure was 80+ psi, you were good and programming knew what to do with the fuel spray... therefore the pump is the same.... jojo
  11. Your right.. I think they are just inflating numbers for kickbacks. I feel just fine and have all of my sense's it's no different then the end of a bad cold or real flu, not Kung Flu..
  12. yes sir. i'm only 51 for another 2 months anyway,, i dont drive anymore, just fix'em. I dont see great financial success in my future, however, with the exception of my wifes Harley Tri-Glide payment, I do own everything, and dont need to make a ton to survive. So I will just keep on with what I have and maybe buy a lottery ticket here and there
  13. me too.. I have a modest home, and a few toys, and my beautiful wife... and 3 great dogs..... I am blessed, and do care about the less fortunate....
  14. A big waste of time.. it was all a ploy to destroy trumps success... they dont care about us.. I'm glad you are able to keep it together... jojo
  15. author. Sean Hannity has her on from time to time... Candace Owens...
  16. Candace is a conservative, she says a lot of things that we believe in.. But cant be called a racist.. We need people like her to speak for those that look like me..
  17. Me too.. I was positive on wednesday. i'm stuck at home. However i was able to get an engine to build in my shop from a customer, this way i can still earn income while at home. I know that Biden wont have food and money delivered to me and my wife, of course, we don't have the correct physical appearence or status to receive freebie's.. I feel fine not sick at all, so I will keep doing what I do,,,, Earn it myself. Jojo
  18. So I did some math.... lets say we spend just $1 billion on 13,000 illegals this spring.... that's just under $77,000/ illegal... I want to be an illegal alien!!!!! that's 20+ thousand more than I'm going to EARN on my own... with my small mobile mechanic business. ................ Heck I just got diagnosed with Covid 19 on wednesday, I feel fine, I'm home and a bit bored.. I was able to get a 3 cyl. john deere engine from a customer, to keep me busy. i tore it down yesterday, tomorrow they pick up parts for the machine shop.. I'm trying to keep income coming in, not sitting on my butt waiting for a handout. anyway..... jojo
  19. Well im out of likes... That was great.. :)!
  20. isn't your pump just a pump and does not include the filter pad?
  21. Is it me???? or do the new stylish masks look like "Nugget huggers" for your face... It's like they went to France and got all the defective male speedo's and put ear straps on them... I'm losing my mind... Jojo
