  1. I say the same thing.. Mark,,,
  2. I know what you mean J.C. Don't go to the Mayberry Truck show, in Mt. Airy N.C. You will puke to death...
  3. Oh My Suffering Christ !!!! I hope they loose hundereds of millions in sales.. What car will Jag owners trade their Jag's in for??
  4. https://photos.app.goo.gl/Fi6VfdnPXK3URnSB7 Here is a picture of a 673 piston, you can see the oil holes for the oil ring, if the engine is upside down with oil in the pistons it will seep through these holes, Maybe drain the 15w40 out, flip it over, pull the pan, and put ATF or a 5w oil in each piston.. just a thought..
  5. Pull the injectors.. or.... turn the engine upside down for a week or 2 then turn it back upright for a week or 2
  6. is it me, or during the Biden/Obama administration, we have a food recall every week for some kind of parasite? We never had so many food complications, as we have had in the last 4 years... Now cucumbers are carrying salmonela.. This coupled with the G-Men killing live stock in the name of Bird flu, or some bovine B.S. disease, and then killing off Deer because of Cronic Wasting Disease... It smells like Govt. control of our food sources, and in part, independence... The ability to fend for ourselves is a threat to the Govt. Thanks, just doing my part to keep this thread alive.. Jojo B.T.W. I'm out of tin foil, TJC, can you send me some?
  7. Beautimus !!!!
  8. Amen !! O.D.
  9. Well, I was going to brine then smoke our turkey,,,, But my Boss said NO !... anyway, its in the oven right now on low... Happy Turkey Day ALL !!
  10. Duck, it's funny, but I am on the edge of my seat with this,,, I'm waiting for you to post that it is at the house..
  11. I'm glad you are fixed up, I only mentioned the range cylinder re-build as part of a P.M. idea. I think you said you use air brake conditioner, thats good, the less water the better, I assume you pull the cables on the air tanks regularly too. as far as a low oil level, I think it holds 28-30 pints, and there is likely an oil pump inside, you should see some stainless steel tubes inside the bell housing, when you are greasing the throw out bearing. and as far as the number of gears, yes 1st. is all the way towards you and down, and that is used to start out, then when you range shift 'up' when you come out of 5th., you come over to the middle, and 'up' skipping the 1st. gear spot. I know you know this, just sharing info. Thank you for posting the solution, and for the Respect.. Good deal.. Jojo
  12. You too Bud,, I hope you have a great day..
  13. doing good, hope you are.. just rellaxing tonight before I spend tomorrow cooking for me and my wife..
  14. I went to the search bar, selected 'everywhere', then typed in 'injection pumps for sale'.. then I just scrolled through the list.. Good luck, I wish I could help you better..
  15. and April 6th, in 'for sale'
  16. october 28th, in 'for sale'
  17. is it because the E-6 Ambach pump has 3 bolt holes, and the E-7 has 4? I thought there was a posting inthe for salle section, where there was some Robert Bosch pumps for sale....
  18. https://photos.app.goo.gl/fQ2CEdmL1LXxmWYU6 OK. I hope this works. It took me a bit.. the first 2 are from the '95 book.... the second 2 are from the '96/97 book
  19. I am glad that the tranny has worked good for you. as far as the gears goes, the main box (front) is a 5 speed w/reverse. the order of the gear sets from front to back is: 4th+5th, 3rd+2nd, 1st+rev.. they are the same gears in low or high range. the back box contains 2 shift forks, one for the Hi/Lo synchronizer, and the other is the splitter ( the Gray button on the side of the knob).. I dont know how long this issue has been around, but may I suggest that you re-ring the Synchro pistons. that is the one that sticks out the back of the tranny above the yoke. it is easy to do and you do NOT have to pull the transmission. what are your thoughts? and if you are a good mechanic, you can do this job without needing to be a tranny specialist. My thoughts are that mabey the range shifter is sluggish. Hard to truly diagnose it from my couch, but there are a bunch of us here that will guide you. Jojo
  20. Have you checked the oil level? Also, is the gear shifter used as an arm rest?
  21. 'K'... I enjoyed that video.. I don't have Fox news anymore, A few years now. I let them go.. However, Mr. Huckabee is a good man and I have listened to him many times.. I know that when he is speaking I can trust him... as far as Tariff's.. I am clueless on how it works, but if it slows down the entrance of bad things into our Great Nation,,, I'm in.. If it encourages bussiness' to build on American soil,,, I'm in..... I do expect to see some prices rise, which suks, but it is time to fortify the U.S.A. I am not an intelligent guy, but I love our country.. We need strong people to fix what the Biden Klan, with the help of barrack the P.O.S. created.
  22. Hell I gave $7k for a $5k truck because I wanted it.. I will have $10k totaled when I drive it on the road.. Oh well.. I have yet to see another one in my area at the shows I've been too. I have shallow pockets so My Int. KB-7 will be My show truck.. Just my 2 cents.. Jojo
  23. Duck, You have a great story and pictures to boot.. it's been about 2 years since you started this thread. For what ever my opinion is worth, If you can afford to buy the truck, and Mrs. Duck supports you,,,,,, Do it.. I have 1 old truck, and I am very proud to have it. It's not a Mack, but i'm good with that. What I see in you is a ton of pride as a driver, and a great respect for your kin... Yeah it's 'just a truck' (to some).. but the pride you will have will be valuable,,, to you..... Good luck, and you have my blessing.. By the Damn thing !! Jojo
