Dixie held her own...

Went to lunch with the wife and on the way to pick up some paperwork from the office "Dixie" developed a mis-fire. Not good for a multifuel. Got to the office and found that the No.1 injector line had started to leak around the IP, like a flood! Making a panic move I went down to a Pep Boys down the street and barrowed a line wrench and gave the line a loosen/tighten thingy and was leaking less. On the way back the truck has a massive mis-fire and after a couple of middle fingers decided to give a look outside the door. The whole left side of the truck was covered in fuel. Had to drive the truck for about ten miles with the No.1 injector line completely broken off the IP. Me and my BIL made makeshift repairs and I got it home without further incident. Ordered a new No.1 line from TNJ for $18, let you know how the first time order went. Pic's to follow. I didn't get any pic's of the shinny motor/underhood due to the fact I was more worried about stopping the bleeding by adding carb cleaner over the IP after repairs to check for leaks.

I didn't know the line had broken completly off untill I tried to make a hill and she was blowing a lot of fuel outside the L/F fender. It looked like I threw a rod! Ran like I threw a rod, without the expensive noise.
