I never used it.

Pull cover off the pump and see if plungers move.

Rotella for me too.

Congrats on the new family member!

Quite a difference between centimeters and millimeters!

Dave, we've had a few members go missing due to "issues" on the board. Don't be another one. I've learned to just scroll right on by the posts with battles going on in them. Just doesn't add anything to my day reading them....so I just ignore them. In time they will slip onto page #2 and forgotten. Another thanks for the pictures you post.

Nice. My last bench I built I had some scrap 4x6's and used those for legs. You can pound on it all you want and it does not move. The 2x10's on top kinda helps. Got a call from one of my sub contractors for work. He was scrapping a large metal table and offered it to me. It's 10ft x 2ft, 1/4" plate top and sides(riveted together, so it's like a mid'40's-50 table) with a nice vise. $200!! I got it for work, gives me someplace to do my repair/welding without having to use tables all around the shop. My current work table is a 3ft square granite inspection plate! Ya, it's all we had.....LOL!

Ditto. My 237 was a big step up from the ol 673. But I too always want more!!!! Arh,arh,arh! But I want dependability, so I rolled the nut a couple flats and just drive it. Doesn't get over 1000* on the pyro.

Need to move the MB up a couple feet to get the perspective closer so it looks the same size as that tall MH! Lol.

My guess is part of the link didn't get copied over?

Ankle.............well I'm sure that's just what TOM calls it.....................🤣

I'll agree with that 100%.

That looks to be a better deal then that R model from a few years back. Same scenario, but I think they wanted twice for the R model?

Wow..that's a LOT of truck!

I throw some Power Service in mine every few fill ups.

I seem to remember those commercials on TV from many years ago? My favorite commercials was from Stroh's. Where the guy is lost in the desert and the old guy offers him water and he says..."No, No, that's okay, I was really looking for some Stroh's". LOL!!

Yup, Mark. He has a facebook page about the show and he apparently is doing a restoration on the truck? Or is it just the motor? Been some time since I saw a post about it.

I can't help, but someone will be along and tell you. Welcome to the forums.

Pretty sure we spoke at registration, as we were all kinda close in line.

Glad to hear they are taking care of it. Hope the next version works well. There is a Youtube channel (Jpaydirt)that has put a couple of those turbos on his Cat powered KW and 1693 powered equipment and really likes them.

I'm pretty sure that 80K is not period correct. I know I've seen other trucks in the show that said 73K. I know the Galoob r/c truck I have from that show had 73K on the door. https://i.pinimg.com/originals/c1/2f/8f/c12f8f0fa228e6f6425fe2311c07d488.jpg

I'm just 5-10, so I fit pretty well. I can stretch my left leg up into the vent pocket, above the bright switch and get comfortable. I can kick the cruise control on and then swing my right foot in front of the seat to relax on long drives. Just can't lean the seat back enough, it rubs the back wall now. I put an extra 7" dia tank on the truck when I put the air steering on it. Gives it that extra volume it needs for most anything I get into. The only bad feeling I get is going into long curves. it tends to push/pull on the wheel and makes it kinda squirrely feeling. You just have to not panic and jerk the wheel, and it will be okay. I'd like to find a factory small wheel, not go with an aftermarket or newer style wheel. Just doesn't look right in my opinion.

The B67 has that angled steering shaft to move it up. I have one and thought of maybe trying to install it in my truck with a small wheel just to get more room(I don't really need it, luckily). With the air steering, I don't need the big wheel anymore. I don't use the clutch unless absolutely necessary, period. Just call me lazy.

I think I met those two at Lexington.

We had a full service Sears. Store, automotive and we had a parts outlet for appliances so you were covered. I remember buying my first 8 track stereo for my '72 IH pickup back in like 1981 from the automotive store. Used to buy lots of Diehard batteries through the years. My favorite story from Sears. About 25 yrs ago I ordered a new softener for my house. They told me it would be ordered in and ready in a couple days. Okay. They call, I go get it. A week later I start getting calls about delivering my new softener. Huh? I ignored the calls for awhile, but I finally said WTH and called them back. They deliver it and I wait for the call about me having TWO. Never happened, ever. I end up selling the extra to a friend a few months later. Apparently someone failed in their record keeping?
