I am under the impression that the water would settle to the bottom of the tank. The 5 blocks I made it home was probably just what gas was in the lines. It was very strange it felt just like the truck was running out of gas, It died I stopped cranked it a bit, it bobbled and ran I turned it...
I jumped in after a huge rain storm since I didn't want to drive my car through the "flood" areas, well I made it 5 blocks before it died. F*cking water in the gas tank I think. Has anyone had any luck with those alcohol additives that help burn off the water?
Thanks,

Dropped the rear hub off at the machinist hoping to get the broken studs milled out if possible or upgrade to 10mm rear 100 series studs.
Hoping that the machinist can do it in a timely fashion.

I just moved to Texas and my 55 was delivered 12/22. I knew I had a lot of little things to wrap up that I had been noticing since I bought it back from Eric, earlier this year. Things were so hectic in Denver that they never got tended to and then I moved down here and...
Do you have any more info on the event in Gilmer? It is about 6 1/2 hours away don't want to drive the 55 that far, so not sure if I will make it. I sold my tow rig for the 55, and haven't bought a new one yet.
This is a great time to start a new project. You can get a new rig for a good...
Just to set everything straight both of your 55's are way better then my old pig. It was ground breaking for its time but I started it 7 years ago, Feb 2004. Lots of new ideas in my head, and I really need to start a new project. Too little time and space, but I really have my eye on...
