[Drift]

Can't make it

Sorry guys. Went to start my truck and got the click of death. It appears that I lost my batteries. Left lights on, doh! I really wanted to come. Oh we'll see you at the rally..

What is an event without a breakdown, boring. Andy3 lost an ip pump so it was towing time






Me and Andy did get the lecture from 79m819 about having safety chains in the truck along with your tow bars

Andy also had the breakdown signs and cool yellow safety gear.

Bravo Andy

Yep, one more truck to add to Rons truck farm, something must be in the air to cause the heard to multiply, the count is now up to six and two trailers, don't mind them gazing on the front lawn, every place they set there is a DEAD spot, this way I am cutting down on my mowing, would like it be cut to 0.

Ron & Steven thanks for the great time this AM & the save.

I now need recommendations on safety chains.

I have some flares & glow sticks for evening events.

 

[zout]

Great pictures and it looked like a good turn out for all involved

Andy good luck on the IP, I did mine, and its not as bad as it seems.

 

[73m819]

Well it is not the HH, the button that drives the plunger does not move, will know more tomorrow when I pull the snap ring and plate so I can see what down there and If I can find what is the issue and then see if I can fix it without pulling the pump.

Ok some of you might think I'm a whack job but I had a great day. I had a good time with all the kids at the event. I had a great time with all my kids there (I believe the final count was 7 plus a friend). Great company at the event. When I did breakdown I was able to be safe and ready for rescue. I was helped to a safe place where I felt genuine hospitality. Other guys have been helpful. It's a good community, I'm proud to be part. Thanks.

 

[swiss]

Thank goodness all us whackos found each other here on steel soldiers. Not sure where I would be without all the good troops!!

carry on

 

[swiss]

Ron shall attempt where no man has gone before, into the linkage below the head with the ip mounted in truck! If you have been there and returned from no mans land please pm 73m819

I forgot ONE VERY IMPOTRANT point in the above post, I had never been in a multifuel ip before, which means I KNEW absolute nothing about them, this "grass hopper" would REALLY like to THANK both Clint and Adam for giving up a large part of there afternoon, evening walking me though diagnoses of the problem and them the hh removal, I down loaded the ip TM, but still was having a very hard time, without both of them I would still be looking at a dead deuce in my driveway, so to the both of them a big
THANK YOU

So...the deuce is fixed then? What was the problem in the HH/IP??opcorn:

NO not fixed, the HH is good, the plunger button that drives the HH plunger is not moving, as soon as I finish my coffee I am going out and "attempt" going deeper in the ip to find the cause of this issue and then come up with a fix plan, trying not to pull the ip if possible.

Are you still in the house? It is 09:30. Zout has probably been in the garage for 4 hours by now

YES, that is WHY the PAINTER has the rank of WARP COMMANDER, I am just a ROCK that has a LOT of rough edges that keeps me from rolling very fast.
