What Log Book????
Hey fellers,
I picked this up for 50,000.00. It's a little rough around the edges but it is fully functional. It does however have some motor issues. This truck sat for about 9 months...never started or anything. I drove it a very short distance when I looked at it the first time & it felt strong. When I went to pick it up, I got out on the road & couldn't get it over 45MPH. Little turbo whistle & low oil pressure which never moved off 25 psi, although the oil was full & fresh. I figured bad fuel & it was just about empty, so 2 full tanks of fresh fuel went in. No difference. It has been in the shop for state & DOT inspections & had every filter changed. Runs a little better & oil pressure is around 50, but still has no power. I have no history of service records yet but I know the guy who drove this truck before it was pulled of the road & he said it ran its ass off. The truck has 538,000 on the ticker. Don't know if it's ever been inframed or not. Could it be time? What do you all think is preventing the turbo from singing? Oh, it's a CAT C-12. Anyone PLEASE chime in. Sorry about the crappy pictures. Thanks
