SW GA Area friends,
It's time to put together my roster for the Annual Spirit of Christmas Parade in my hometown of Leesburg, Ga. The event will start at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday December 1st. Please respond by November 16th so that I can add you to my line-up. I know that I have 3 trucks...
Test pressures seem to be within range. Take the truck for a drive and use lots of brake pedal even while on the throttle. Use an infrared temperature sensing gun to see if you have any brake drums colder by about 50 degrees from the others. I would start on the coldest one as that is where...
I figured out my pulling power problem on 16's. Factory tune is only 515 hp but it's now bumped to a CAT tune on the C15 at 625 hp and 2,050 ft. lbs. of torque which is about as much as a stock C15 on sequential turbos will put out with only a plug and play tune. Brakes are fine as they are...
Ga National Guard let's me operate a M984A4 from time to time. I guess it helps that I'm pulling their stuff as the Maintenance Platoon Sergeant for my unit. I couldn't afford it otherwise.
I'll leave these pictures here. General Non-Sense has quite an oil leak from his accessory drive at the moment but he and his owner are pushing forward nonetheless. He made the round trip to Durhamtown 190 miles each way pulling the M1102 that broke my foot. He hauled about 4,000 pounds of...
Mine is back running good for the moment, looks like I got some bad fuel or years of sitting has caused alot of condensation water to plug the fuel filter. I'm still going to switch to a spin on fuel filter with a viewable bowl so that I can check water contamination off the list a little...
John,
I had my pump gone through about 2 years ago for around $350 if I recall correctly. Local shop in Albany, Ga called R&S Diesel. The only other shop in my area that I found was Shiver Diesel Injection in Tifton, Ga that would touch it.

Oiled down my front differential, driver's side frame rail and a few spots on my M1102 trailer that I towed thanks to my accessory drive leak on my nifty 250. I did get a chance to talk to SwampDonkey about it this weekend at the Ga Rally and it turns out that this leak is not too hard to fix...
Researching more, member Barrman has done this exact swap on a few of his trucks with no issues. Swap top cover and let it ride. Member Cucvrus did this swap and noticed a little more power on a M1009 so I have that to look forward to hopefully. I hate being a parts swapper but I've got a...
Bottom line up front, I'm reaching out for ideas. My truck has started acting strange lately. It loses prime when sitting over night (will be replacing all rubber lines and installing spin on fuel filter). It also randomly stalls out. Most of the symptoms point towards injection pump so I've...
I hate that John had to get towed in and out. My nifty 250 slung oil everywhere from the accessory drive leak but ran strong today. My GPS said I averaged 57 mph with Welder1's Deuce rolling with me. He had that rubber band tight the entire way home!
I had a great time this year as always. Thankfully the trip home was uneventful and that 1/8 turn on the main fuel screw made my average through the hills towards Macon around 55 mph. Welder1 made it at least as far as my road, I'm sure he'll be at his shop in about 25 minutes or so. Looking...
My list of commitments so far. I will be actively looking for you starting tomorrow evening so long as my trip is uneventful. I am staying at Kaye's Keep which is the large cabin directly across the street from the main lodge with members Welder1 and Riddle1. We will have our screen names...
I'm picking up a few items from the site the truck is located at tomorrow. If you still need help, please e-mail the release to sandcobra164@yahoo.com before 0700 Georgia Time and I'll make arrangements with the yard manager to pick it up after the Ga. Rally. If not, no worries. I'm only...
