  1. YES Sir it was/is a puff LIMITER . didn't kill all smoke just slowed it down
  2. don't do any smoking so I eliminated the puffing (back on topic???) just keep screwing up . wife will verify that statement,
  3. or just do it the easy way like I do;;; blame all my screw ups on old age. can't help you there JoJo , you still have quite a few yrs to go be fore can use the ole age bit.. LOL
  4. and maybe learn the one with the grease gun proper tech for greasing throw out bearing. why would some one have two on the shaft ???
  5. glass is so clean and clear i can even see the brockway out in the yard. that steel nose on the brockways to me was always impressive looking. darn great choice of blue on the Mack also.
  6. If Mr. Rockwell suggested the place they "must have been good once" like many operations today ; place is still there , personal inside changed along with attitudes and interest. times change and none of the changes seem for the better anymore.
  7. a little paint and polish the ole Mack ready to go ??? LOL
  8. could be one of those things which will never amount to anything; but has more of a mental strain on you ;;, always wondering driving down the road. if not being done at present time , possibly oil sampling if there is availability . helps monitor internals.
  9. no DD but one fine lookin show piece. got caught up in listening to the earlier post of the single cyl DD running. what a sound (especially compared to the bellering sound the wife makes )LOL
  10. expanded picture large as possible , tough call. based on smooth sides a liner piece would be in top five possibilities. any other contaminates in oil. this is a situation why i always use a clean drain pan when oil changing. let old oil set a while then run a magnet through see what fine particles show up. oil analysis might help. how was engine running ?? noise/pressure etc
  11. now don't knock the sweater puppy;; my '77 F-350 had a silver bulldog mounted on custom modified base. each winter the bulldog got a red/white (Polish colors) sweater to wear ,,LOL
  12. not always quantity but quality . like having a giant snap-on toolbox full of tools with no idea how to use them ( keeping this family friendly ). based on personal experience have delt with a handful and more then a handful. oh the good times :: much younger 😄
  13. sharp looking unit; shouldn't have been any doubt in your mind in terms of making the trip ;; a Mack was doing the moving ..
  14. is that a "sign" the synchros go that often a book/ manual had to be printed to show how ??? did a lot of rear synchros for RR's don't remember a manual printed. I know the maxi three-counter shaft set up is a rebuild challenge no matter how it's done.
  15. it's definitely different. took some engineering; possibly awkward looking to low to ground vs wide . can't see what back has. change of color might improve looks.
  16. had to scroll back to top checking what actual topic started as; LOL : wife (#2) has this thing of always wearing black , guess it's a dominant color. question came up once regarding the constant black clothes if I minded it . my reply :: wear black all you want ; no shortage of females walking around to look at not wearing black. that's how I do it ::: is what it is. now (Late ) wife #1 was a different story ;while in a hooters in FL I bought a tee shirt / was found and NOT appreciated. LOL
  17. AMEN on the D's
  18. can't understand why I got in trouble in school with grades that were C's or D's; the pretty lady in the middle had double DD"s .bet no one is complaining to her .
  19. HONEST VOTE !!! come on JoJo ; are you doing your version of Red Skelton and telling jokes !!LMAO>😁
  20. hoping this topic of house mover is tied into tv 😇; with that and the Red Skelton add , if you never heard Red's version of "THE PLEDGE of ALLIGENCE " . oh yea. check it out. last line makes you think. Red recorded it back in 1994.
  21. never had that problem either when the hardware came in same box as shoes. every where you look things are being broke down more and more. one day if you go to get something to eat , the fork and knife will cost extra. I don't buy anything without opening a box to inspect item that is suppose to be inside.
  22. bringing back the good stuff , don't forget to add the Red Skelton show. now that was comedy at it's finest . didn't have to use foul language to make you laugh.
  23. drove a variety of motorized iron through the yrs from big rigs , HD construction equipt, don't know if they all had puff limiters :: how's that for staying on topic !!never drove/rode on motorized two wheels transportation. possibly results from my head on crash with a school bus at 18 yrs old while on a bicycle . busted up ; and taped up for long time. those are nice looking bikes posted.
  24. the roofing nail !!! now i remember . this web site is the best remedy for early mind loss. and a good ; no A great laugh ..... take the nail cut it short ; was a close perfect size for in the line..
  25. I;ve been tellin the youger generation same thing - don't bring children into this rotten place. want enjoyment with a larger family;; go to an animal shelter, they have many puppies, cats etc looking for a loving home, so darn sad the greed for power; not even money anymore. these clowns have billions and more, sickness is power.
