    So what did you do with your truck today?

    I put mine up for sale on the classifieds today. I will miss it, but Cummins power pulls heavy loads in the Sierras better.

    The Official "Show Us Your Ride" pictures of member's trucks thread.

    Sorry, remembered my figures wrong. Total on scales was 13940, Subtract 8600 GVWR leaves 5340 Lbs for the trailer. Only above max recommended weight by 2 occupants. Truck did well, but glad the trailer has four wheel brakes. I did get a bigger truck, that C-600 is a two ton. Anyone in the west...

    Installing new IP, any kind of "teflon tape" type fix for the injector line threads?

    That must be quite a flare kit. Most of us would go junkyard diving.

    Installing new IP, any kind of "teflon tape" type fix for the injector line threads?

    I prefer teflon paste. As stated above, it is not a sealer, but only a lubricant to allow tapered pipe threads to be tightened more. It has no place in a compression fitting. Even worse, the strings from the tape will permanently clog an injector, or damage a crankshaft bearing when used on oil...

    Has anybody here had a 1984 Mercedes 300D?

    Non-turbo will outlast the turbo by a factor of two, so that engine, with valve adjustments and fluid changes on schedule should be running fine at the half-million mile mark. A non-turbo with a manual trans performs nearly equal to a turbo with an automatic.. Solid design, plan on buying all...
