  1. 2001 E7 427 recently had to replace section of exhaust manifold. removed turbo and drain line. when putting back, I broke the O-ring at the connection to oil fill. replaced with a # 214? o-ring, but still have leakage from the connection. A) is that the proper size o-ring B)can I run a bead of silicone to seal. Leak is not bad enough to show loss on dipstick, but makes a mess around oil fill to block Thanks in advance Ed
  2. I gave it up bout 20 years ago. Big public events around here usually have Bud or one of their others
  3. By then, it was 4 o'clock and the men had to leave so they wouldn't miss the "early bird specials"
  4. I believe "Bigen" isn't having any more with his
  5. Not only the US, but the world has sent money, lots of it, to help improve the area. BUT, the money went to the government and hasn't been seen since. Thats why countries are looking for contractors to work there. Direct contracts, not involving Haiti goverment. That country is more corrupt than NOLA, if thats possible. Or maybe thats where they learned.
  6. Yup, thats about how it was. The owners of the property would have made any true redneck right proud. Didn't weigh it but I guess around 75k gross. Busted concrete. Had a guy with a Cat 938 come over, he got me this far then stood it up on two wheels. Guy with a 950 and in two minutes i was on the road. The guy in the pic says " Right up on the frame it is."
  7. Of course the previous will ba available after this gets taken care of No that aint me. One of the "locals" "well looky there"
  8. First-Not anyone can manage a company. Too much theory, not enough reality. Second-look into heavy equipment as an additional. If you can work on trucks and HE, many companies would be interested
  9. Any y'all are welcome to visit. Matter of fact, I could use a hand with this. grillzilla.bmp
  10. Check Ritchie Bros. auctions rbauction.com Having a BIG one near here in tw weeks. Prolly get one at a real good price.
  11. What caused the two speed to burn out in the first place? Short in the wire may be the root. Start at the two speed and work forward
  12. Aint you expecting some big snow this weekend? Hate to miss the "big game" cause your out making money.
  13. i really don't want to have an accident, but, maybe i'll try one of them lawyers. See what they can do for me. Tell them almost the whole story about the big truck hit the car, blah, blah. Oh yeah, I was driving the truck
  14. Good luck on the possible job. School will teach you "theory". Its a different game when you deal with "reality" Thought maybe you were in banned camp for your postings earlier.
  15. Where you bin? We missed your um- insight on many matters. Yeah thats it. Whats going on with driving school? Hows the weather? here we got a cold front coming thru today. Might hit 49 tonite. :lookingforheaters:
  16. Done I should have voted for the local guy, but he doesn't give me any work
  17. I would assume this is your new set of wheels. Hadn't heard if you took it. Good luck and congrats
  18. What time did you shut down the shop? You described two days work at the dealer. Did the rears have "dust covers"? Some say they keep crap out, all they do is hold crap in. Making progress, thats a good thing. And you know what to look forward too this weekend As far as the trans. flush, what did the fluid look/feel/smell like when you drained it? Diesel or kerosene would work. Just make sure it drains completely. Before refill, waste a little gear oil and pour in and let drain out. .02
