Ground Hawg.
4" front, shackle flip rear, and now I need different u bolts to drop the rear, too much lift.
Looks goofy, 4" rake?
So here is my confusion.
Fire it up, go to exhaust shop, runs fine the 20 mins (longest it has run to date) I run it out there, I let it sit for minute, 45 actually, I fire it up to move it into the bay, It fires, runs 50' and dies, like i hit the key...
***?
SO I hit it with ether, nothing, batteries re hovering around 10-11 volts, so not the most invigorating cranking, either.
We push it... let it sit on the charger, only after like 5 attempts of not firing.
Weld the exhaust, it sits for an hour or so... fires right over. Idles a bit, kill it. Again fires, brand new truck.. literally, 2-3 revs, and it fires.
Drive home, again 20 minutes or so, kill it, run inside for 20 minutes, late for an interview.. fire it, again, just far enough it is stuck in traffic. Moderately heavy traffic.
Key it in reverse off the road, two guys come to push, ennh Hah Hah! 4 guys come to push.. all they succeed in doing is holding it while I get out and help... heh heh heh...
I live on an incline to the road, and there is a curb we had to hop.
**** with this and that around the house, let it sit... batteries about dead, and I had to hit it with ether, but she fires.
Guy here that rebuilds pumps told me to pull the return coupling off the pump and see if it was plugged, he said there is this plastic dealy whooper that shreds as a pump dies. He said Ferd/IH did away with the plastic after the first 4-5 years of pumps, and if I had a low mile early 6.9 ( I do) there is a good chance it hs never been gone through, and plastic dealy whopper pieces plugging up the return line.
Clear as day, the little check valve even works.
Why does this thing work like a Union employee? I live in Idaho, we have none, we are right to work state, I need a truck that will outwork two illegals. Not take a 45 min cofffee break every 20 mins.
Help?
