Alright ladies and gentleman.
You wanted the skinny, here it is.
Murphy can KMA! Nothing new on the truck, filling up however Murphy decided it would be a good ideas to let the fuel novel slip a little while I was seating it and well, shower time.
One thing I have noticed, she is a oil burner. Not bad but put a load on her and she puffs the white stuff good.
Put two gallons in her to keep the pressure up, she was doing the funky chicken on the gauge.
337 needs several boots up several operators butts.
2nd and 3rd shop can only fix what they know about. Pencil whipping a pmcs only hurts the truck. I speak from experience, I was a mechanic, turrets and weapons and all the electronics that go along with it. I have spent several years on a 88, and pulling packs on m1s. Plus volunteering to drive both my deployments.
She will make it to her destination, even if the Prius has to pull her. (Let's see who gets it...)
Plan on driving more tonight then stop for some rest.
Don't get me wrong, I love this truck, she has brought back a lot of memories, good and bad, but it is better than sitting in a circle talking about your feelings. This is why I want to do this, therapeutic in a way.
