    When they call me for a load, I sometimes have a tendency to just say "yeah" without really thinking it through. Soooooo, I bring you Seasons Greetings from the natural gas fields 38 miles outside of Williston, ND.

    Has anyone converted a school bus into an expeditor?

    Professionalism would be the stigma. It's simply about using the right tools for the job.

    Partly the reason I chose that particular word. :D In overly simplistic terms, it means deviating from the ordinary forms and rules; abnormal, irregular, anomalous. It's use is mainly in linguistics, but it shows up in other places. In linguistics, it's irregular or anomalous either in...

    Sprinter running rough after injector change.

    I idle to recharge batteries, 'cause I don't have a generator. The last 2 or 3 months I've idled a lot. A lot. The battery bank has been on it's last leg for a while. Just turning on the inverter and computer would cause the voltage to drop to well below even 12.0 volts. Went to Staab Battery...

    Sprinter running rough after injector change.

    Uhm, well, yeah, each injector has it's own code. From front to back the codes are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. The electrical connector on the injector has two pins. One pin is connected to the battery through the ignition relay and the other pin goes to the ECM. The ECM sends a pulsing ground to the...

    Sprinter running rough after injector change.

    Sometimes injectors fail and they just don't work anymore, even when there's no Black Death present. The inline 5's will still run pretty good on 4 cylinders. In my case, the two injectors that were replaced with used one, one was no longer working (no idea for how long) and the other couldn't...

    Was gonna see it Saturday night in Milford, CT at the Imax theater around the corner from the Pilot. Had the ticket bought online and everything. But then got a load to to Little Rock. Cancelled the ticket.

    Sprinter running rough after injector change.

    The ONE with "coke" around it is the ONE that was leaking and would have been the ONLY injector that needed to be changed so changing out 4 of them doesn't make sense to me. Take the plastic cover off the top of the engine, and with the engine running, see if there are any little puffs of...

    How can my contract be valid when they aren't giving me loads?

    Stay focused, deliberate, purposeful. If you let things distract to from your finish line, you'll lose. The Tortoise and the Hare.

    How low?

    Turtle would not use the boiling frog metaphor, because, being an amphibian himself, he knows the frog would jump out as soon as he became uncomfortably warm, and that the boiling frog myth originated in 19th century junk science. Turtle would be much more likely to use the metaphor of shock...
