Congratulations, and all the best. Spent 25 years in the field, retired at 50 and now answer to a bunch of cows. Study hard. Gary

I just put 200 gal. of Red and 200 gal of clear in the farm tanks. The Red was $3.50 delivered and Clear was $3.00 delivered, bulk delivery in Central Kansas. Price of hay will have to go up this year. Hopefully this will be enough to last till things settle down. Gary

ISX Back when my shade tree still had a few leaves on it, that would have been a symptom of a Solid State ignition module going bad, usually during cold weather. Just a thought. gary

Gentlemen, What if, we did a data base build, cruse control ON MPG @ 55@ 65@ 70 Outside templevel highway or average coming and going at speed. altitude+ any other pertinant data? Then look at the performance and see what possibly makes them best, or worst.Might be a little much, I don't know, I'm new to a couple things here. Comments? Gary

Since Rogan's paying the shipping, you can drop me off 2 cords on the way. Gary

Gentlemen, I'm diving in waaaay over my pay grade, but could it be????????Are we looking at different densities or shades of the same "color" if grey is a color? Mo coffee please! Gary

Excellent, and thanks VW. Gary

Gentlemen, I have perused the different threads and may have possibly missed the subject. What is a logical progression for increasing HP and / or Fuel Mileage on a 24V In my case I am looking for both, power (I haul hay from the field on a 30' gooseneck) and Mileage, just cause it's gettin' 'spensive! I'm working with a 2001, 2500, 4WD, QCSB, Auto, BHAF, Straight exh., 135K mi., front end has been done. My initial sense and conversations have led me to believe that three things lead in any project.1. Air intake = BHAF2. Exhaust = opened up and increased in size depending on the extent of the project3. A fuel additive = 2 cycle oil etc. 4.?:broke:5.?:broke:Etc.:broke: What should be next, logical step, and what could be potential points of reducing returns/cost for aftermarket adding to the drivetrain? I think there is probably enough HP stock to get my work done, but additional HP, with fuel economy gains would be great, if the costs will pay off.I'm not a cheap A**, but..... if it doesn't pay off, I have to consider whether it is worth the output. Business/Hobby ya know. / :hyper: I want gauges, but if a Quad/Adrin. would give me gauges and added MPG, AND HP, then it may be worth the additional expense. Lets eleminate driving habits and other human induced variables. What should be my next step? Ideas.....Thanks, Gary

Hello to everyone. I am a Retired Eng., now a small time farmer/stockman, competative shooter/gunsmith, writer, and jack of all trades. When we moved back to the farm in '99, I got a '97 dakota which has served me well, but I always wanted a "Big Boy Truck". Well, here we go. It's a 2001 24V/auto, quad cab with 135K on it and in near showroom condition. It appears to be un-modified other than "jacked up .......but not for long. It will soon have a BHAF and clean exhaust. Seems to really like 2cycle oil to season its' diet, and is tempting me to fertilize my old "shade tree", which lost it's leaves years ago. The forum has already been a great help in extending my education and I'm looking forward to picking your brains when warmer weather hits and the real fun begins. Thanks guys, Gary Morris / otiecllr223
