If you ever have time in Allentown....Mack trucks museum tour is nice.

Change the fuel filters first...and if it still does it check for collapsed or spongy fuel lines. It's starving for fuel....and that will make an engine smoke (usually white smoke) and stumble badly. 3116's have unit injectors....so no injection or high pressure fuel pump, just a supply...

If I was retiring the CargoMax....I'd either do the Transit thing or another GM cutaway with a narrow body on it like scottm4211. Moot's fuel economy numbers look good in his Transit...just dunno if I could get used to that overhang.

I like the idea of the powerdeck but didn't want the weight or the reduction in available load height. A nicely finished plywood floor means the skids slide or push in easy and I have a 30 foot tow strap to completely surround the front skid (I put the strap in with the first skid) and just use...

Thanks for the new laundry machines John. Nice to see this too!

After 30 years I also know oil color has almost zero indication of contamination. Oils in the last 10 or so years in diesels built in the last 20 years, turn dark from heat and oxidation long before soot is even a remote problem As far as your ROI statements and fleet managers goes, let me say...

So your additive fixes worn out rings? Mechanically sound engines have a VERY low amount of combustion gasses getting past the rings...and almost no exhaust as the pressure has dropped considerably compared to combustion.

As soon as I read "Michigan plates" I was expecting to see the corporate jet er Jag with the custom license plates.

I switched from Verizon to T-Mobile and with a current updated phone...I'm not noticing any real difference in coverage or speeds....just a lower bill.

Once it gets a blue stripe.

Copper and Lead as wear metals are connecting rod or main bearings.....about as far away from the combustion chamber (and the effects of combustion changes from any additive) as you can get. If the combustion was so lousy and soot creating to create THAT much soot that it ACTUALLY creates enough...

A drive by Mooting in Illinois.....be on the lookout and if you smell Lutefisk do not investigate...call the authorities.

Or putting the slip yoke back together one or two splines off (if it has no master spline).....should be "good enough". Once knew a guy who spent a lot of money on new tires when all along the vibtation was an out of phase driveline.

I have the 50 size Dometic (a design level or 2 behind Turtles)....they aren't cheap but, not having to fuss around with ice and draining water, never reaching in and pulling out waterlogged food, not having to do the smell test on food or dairy every time and, having cold but dry beverage...

AWESOME!! Good Bye I-Pass! Do you know yet if we will have both the Zone 1(EZ Pass) and Zone 2 (Everything else) transponders?

Many...too many, states allow an interpreter to be present for drivers license exams....as well as many other things ypu need a licence for (electrician, dentist etc).

With all the free trade deals Mexico has with the rest of the world...they will still build cars there and need parts. If the loads OUT of Laredo disappear....then my rate TO Laredo just went waaay up. It will be like Denver or any other outbound expedite black hole.

Curious Dollar...what year is your van and how many miles on it?

At that early hour there is like 1 employee inside and she had her hands full with customers....besides...if this guy has the attitude that he can do this...what would his response and attitude be back to her? I did head over...but he scurried back into his van as quick as he popped out of...

My apologies....just didn't understand why you seemed so offended/victimized....now I do. Moving on as well.
