    Fuel hand pump primer replacement

    Deville - I would have to agree with you on this one since some don't have two filters . And if it only has one filter - then in these parts - we call that the PRIMARY one . LOL .

    Fuel hand pump primer replacement

    Notice that some 3126's have two fuel filters . A water separator filter and a primary filter - and some only have the primary filter . Can you just add a second one on if it only has one or could it have a negative effect since it wasn't standard from the factory ? Never could understand why...

    Cat 3126

    If the fan clutch is bad and the fan runs a lot - would that be a big drain on the engine ? I guess what I am really asking is would you notice a loss of power from the engine ?

    Question Regarding Whirlwind Express

    Deja Vu all over again with Whirlwind . Similiar post was written about Whirlwind tit for tat earlier this year . Honestly , what did the drivers expect was going to change ? Oh , I really feel that it's going to be different this time because Anne said so . Blind leading the blind !!

    Question Regarding Whirlwind Express

    When I used to run for them , it was excuse - check is in the mail - another excuse - check is in the mail - blah , blah, blah . I would send in 6 BOLS ( from myself and my drivers ) and somehow they would only receive 4 of them ( golly gee Wilber - I wonder how that could have happened ?? )...

    Straight trucks and vans for sale ?

    What's up with all of the vehicles for sale lately ? In the last 12 days , there are 12 new listings for straight trucks and 15 new listings for vans / Sprinters .

    Even Carriers are having a hard time filling jobs.

    I would have to assume that turn over for van fleet owners is pretty high at ALL companies - NOT just at Panther .

    buying a sprinter & having my own authority.

    Just out of curiosity , how would someone know or be able to find out ?? Also , with his MC # being 799132 , I would have to assume that there is a whole lot more than only 800,000 MC numbers out there . I meen , with all of the companies that go out of business , casually truck . or have there...

    buying a sprinter & having my own authority.

    I'm confused as to what the 799 has to do with the history records ??

    buying a sprinter & having my own authority.

    I have always heard that three car hauling with a dually was pretty profitable . Just out of curiosity , why the change to expediting ??

    Opinons on a Ford e250 with a 4.2 litre 6cyl

    I owned a similar vehicle . 250 cutaway with a 11 ' box - 4.2 , 6 cylinder - 8600 G.V.W. Truck was a bit under powered and wasn't good on gas at all . I think because it was a 6 , it was always struggling . Not sure what the rear end ratio was . I didn't keep it very long to say the least .
