other dog

maybe the driver has not driven an scr truck before and didn't know what it's supposed to do and not supposed to do. I wouldn't know either, so i'm a dumbass too. Guess i'd carry a gallon of gas with me and have all my belongings where I could grab them quickly.

Navistar is also developing their new EGR engine with the C-15 Caterpillar engine as the base, since Cat is out of the heavy truck engine market. They recently purchased some kind of valve technology from Holley (yep,the carb. people) to use on this engine. You're probably right about them burying everyone else when they get this engine on the market.

Yeah, I don't know about all that stuff. I'm just a truck driver, and that's what we used to- I meant, that's what I heard of other drivers doing. Guess that's why it was a good way to get fired. I always went by "don't mess with it if you don't know what you're doing" so I never touched nuthin'.

just taking the cover off the top of the pump and "giving 'er a couple of rounds" (turning the fuel up) will make a 237 go like a scalded dog. Little dab'l do ya'. Used to be a sure fire way to get fired, breaking the seal on a pump. If it's your own truck you'll have to fire yourself if you turn it up.

oh no, this time it's different. they changed the oil and serviced it Friday at our shop and stripped the threads in the oil pan when they took the drain plug out. Said they've had several do that. They're gonna take the oil pan off at Cat and fix it. Jimmy welded the plug in and put some silicone around it and I went to Ohio and back, dripping oil all the way.

raining here,truck's at Caterpillar-the Peterbilt truck-I cain't do anything...guess i'll go to bed.

uhhh...I didn't notice.she could have been standing by the space shuttle and I prolly wouldn't have noticed.

I cropped too much of the picture-she's actually admiring a V8 Superliner, just out of the picture to the left

geez, sure is quiet around here!

I'm still running good, busy as the proverbial one legged man in an ass kicking contest. I took treated lumber to Shinnston,W.V. and loaded 2 coils in Yorkville,Oh. going to Clinton,N.C. Then to Dillwyn and onward to Fremont,Ohio. Loaded some Mack truck frame coils in Erie,Mi. going to Roanoke, then I had to leave Friday going to the nucular (George Bush) power plant in Oak Harbor,Ohio to deliver yesterday morning.They serviced the truck and finally put a new fan hub on it before I left. The oil plug stripped the threads out of the oil pan when they took it out, so they put it back in and welded it. It was still dripping oil though, so they put some silicone on it. It was still dripping oil though, so I took an extra gallon with me (already had 2 gallons) and stopped and bought a gallon of Lucas Oil Stabilizer at $32. Didn't need any of it though, it looked worse than it actually was because by the time I got back to Lynchburg it still wasn't halfway down to the "add" line. I left it at the Cat place with a cut out grape juice bottle under it for a drip pan so they can take the pan off tomorrow and put an insert in it and fix it right.

Hi there Daniel, I agree about that V8 Mack sound!

DoubleL's ad

Yep, I went back and looked at it in the Showtime magazine. Didn't remember seeing it before, but there it was. I see they've got an ATHS show in Knoxville April 9th. and 10th. I better tell nocluejoe so he can go and take some pictures for us. One in Cookeville in Sep. too.

yeah, I can imagine-everything else has.

Got the new one this week, lots of good stuff in it! Thought i'd pass these along in case you don't get it. Like one of the prettiest B-53S's i've ever seen-they're going to auction it off at the national ATHS convention, along with lots of other old trucks. And a Watt's Mack ad. Oh, and Double L's having an antique truck show too.
