Re: Still Around...

My DSM hates me...

I had started it back in November and everything was running great. Was adjusting the timing and getting it ready for the road and it stalled out on me. Found out it had run out of what little fuel was in it. Added some more and then started it back up again. No problems... Was sitting there running a few more minutes and BAM! Kept running with no problems... That was strange... Everything appeared to be normal still... Stalled out real slow... Went to restart it and it made awful sounds of death...

I haven't touched it since... Had a little rage issue after that happened so I took a break on it until the weather warmed up here... Now I'm in the process of moving home and I'll actually have a ton more time to work on it now cause all my overtime at work is gone now... So I'll be working on it here in the next few coming weeks after I get the rest of my stuff moved and unpacked and then we'll see where I stand with it... Gonna pull the motor and see what kind of damage there is...

I feel your pain on the tranny... That's about as bad as the time I was going down the road and mine threw a fork through the intermediate shaft and jammed up the entire tranny... Talk about bad luck with these things... Sometimes I wonder why I haven't just sold it yet...
