    Yessirree....you're gonna love this fine place. Here's the old tow horse. Someone once said it looks like I robbed J.C. Whitney for every piece of aluminum they had. Although I now volunteer to fetch the groceries and run errands just to be able to jump in the F-350 PSD, the '95 still earns...

    Cps help is on it's way?

    Surely you don't mean that. I haven't forgotten the times before the web's easy acces to info. There's seldom a week that passes where I don't have to look up info to keep one of the family's vehicles on the road. It's only through these sites and the contributions from their memberships that...

    Is there a pill for our affliction?

    Imagine that....here I've been too embarassed to admit I'm scared to death something is going to screw up on my truck. But, I'm a first time diesel owner with only two months under my belt in this truck. That's my excuse. Before I bought it, I knew enough about Super Duties I could have...

    Coolant Test Question....

    I really appreciate it, Mike....and thanks, folks. I just tested again and by the charts I'm running a 60% mix (-60F) and low on molybdate putting me at 1.6. Drain a gallon of coolant and replace it with water; add 2 pints of DCA-4. That should put me at 50% and 2.8. This is scary stuff...

    Coolant Test Question....

    Thanks, Mike....that would help as I'd probably get it quicker than I'll get a test pack. Sam Mills RR#1, Box 352 Springville, IN 47462

    Coolant Test Question....

    I don't know about the coolant other than what I drained looks good. I seem to recall reading the '02 could have either in it from the factory. Mfg date is 02/02 on the door pillar sticker. One of my buddies in the club is a dealer tech over in NY and ran Oasis on it....no info. Oasis...

    Coolant Test Question....

    Thanks anyhow....Soon as I decide which coolant to go with, I'm going to change it out. How I bought this truck is weird as well as dumb in a way on my part, but I've got to establish an accurate service baseline to work with because the history is questionable. I'm gonna look through this...

    Coolant Test Question....

    Picked up test strips from the IH dealer, but dummy me didn't think to ask for a comparator card. Compared the strip to my pool test color card and the only thing that comes close to matching up is the purple pad....8.2 pH. Bad picture but can I get a little help? Thanks, folks....

    FUEL Shortage

    Can someone give me any justification other than greed/gouging for diesel prices being linked with gasoline pricing? Post Katrina, we experienced gasoline shortages; some places ran completely out, but diesel was always available. Gas prices go up, diesel follows; gas prices drop, diesel...

    FUEL Shortage

    When Big Erl jumped prices over $3 and people were lined up at the pumps flipping off and horning each other to get it at $2.999, he took our measure. Now, when it drops back to the pre-Katrina high of $2.289 (that sudden jump from $1.899 that originally had us bitchin') everyone now in labrat...

    Wind Deflector

    Gremlinstein, one of our club members, has one on his CC LB F-350 and says it didn't help a bit on mileage, but I've gotta agree it sure adds coolness points when he's hooked up to his trailer. He pulls a 40-sumthin-foot tri-axle mobile shop/toy hauler.:D Maybe I can find a flick or two...

    Rural/city and on the big roads; with or without a shell, or whether or not I'm towing a loaded 7K trailer, at every fueling I come up with 15 mpg.
