Friday lunch

[wngrog]

Better be glad you are driving east. This headwind going west today blows.

Making good time @beno ?

I thought it was just me. I felt like I have had pedal down headed to little rock.

Negative. No time. 3B having starting issues and it is 330am. I've bled the system but still no start. Argh.

Will advise. Jackson is 6 hrs. We shall see. @dnp regardless, I have to stop by and get those parts if I don't make it to lunch.

@wct49 @jrob I have your parts too. Worst case, I will stop in Richland and drop off at @wct49

Back to the garage.

 

[OGBeno]

Truck is running good.

That's the good part.

bad: pretty good leak at the fuel filter bleeder plug. Argh. 40 year old trucks!!

 

[OGBeno]

Success!!

Bleeder was FUBAR'ed from PO. Pull banjo bolt, rethread (M6x1.0) and use oring from my spares for my 3B for the IP.

Solution:

Oring:

Time to shower and hit the road.

1130 probably not happening. Will advise.

[wngrog]

Also, thanks for the extra apps Lou. That dip with the fries was amazing

That fish sammish is on point

 

[BMThiker]

I'm guessing Tripel F, aka @beno didn't make it by lunchtime. :/

Good example of Turkey redneck (or is it redneck turkey?) engineering.

Negative. 36 year old truck, 41 year old driver and no sleep= slow going.

I did get to meet up with @dnp to grab parts... Thanks for meeting me Dave.

Also stopped by to see Chris and my good client Boyd happened to be there too. Awesome. Great to see you Chris and great to meet you Boyd:

Now on my way to meet up with @FJ60Cam in MEM and then head west to Tulsa.
