I always think a 30 minute job is going to take 30 minutes....You'd think I would know by now. I pictured in my head I was going to run my wife's F150 supercrew up to temp to change her oil and filter, while I checked and filled the transfer case since I pulled it into the garage this weekend and the transfer case appears to be leaking around the gasket little. transfer case is low, couldn't feel the dexron 2/3 with my finger. I tried using a plastic water bottle full of dexron, not a chance. Tried using a little funnel with hose attached, can't get the funnel high enough under the humvee to get any in the transfer case, I now have a half a bottle's worth of fluid on the floor.
Thought I had the pump leaking/prime issue solved by putting a plug instead of the ICE sensor on the top of the fuel filter and running Optilube XP through the system this weekend. Pump didn't leak a bit all weekend, started right up, no air bubbles in the clear tubing I put on the return. 40 degrees this morning, all kinds of air bubbles in the return and the no start problem once again, as I figured I would pull the truck out of the garage to clean up the mess........
I'm guessing the pump is leaking into the valley from all the air (A LOT), so I'll have to pull out the radios and tray to see and it's going in the shop, I'm thoroughly disgusted at this point. My wife and I had fun driving it all weekend and no problems starting it, no diesel in the valley ERRRRRRRRRRRRRR Maybe it needs to live in FL.
In any case here's the radio install so far, I used CARC substitute on the tray.
