Doubletrouble

Just want to touch base with everyone. I've been very scarce lately. I've been dealing with a lot. Trying to get something moving with dad's legal case ( from his car accident that ultimately took him from us) and more recently my mother was battling stage 5 kidney failure along with multiple infections at the same time. She lost her battle and passed away at 9am October 8th. Since then I've been very busy arranging the funeral, after service luncheon and handling other business since mom's will appointed me executor. I have a ways to go before I can fully wrap things up. Mom's house will have to be cleaned, repainted inside, yard work done and then put on the market to be sold. I have to be in court for dad's case Friday at 3pm, hoping some good news will come from that. It's been a stressful ride the past month and have some more ahead but I will keep pushing forward and eventually find the end of this bumpy road.

Looking forward to seeing it also!

I bought my parts from a combination of allstate gear and torque king I believe. I had to replace the input shaft, main shaft and counter shaft. Mine was pretty trashed. I also replaced the tail housing, OEM was an aluminum peice, I replaced it with a cast iron piece from torque king.

While beast is laid up for repairs please please please paint the grill! 🤣 Sorry buddy, that bare yucky plastic gril drives me crazy. Lol

That's cool, I like this idea!

Congrats on finally getting her nailed down.

Interesting

Wish I had the skill to do body work like that. Looks great

Yep, all proprietary info. TOP SECRET!

That would be great info to have on hand. Hopefully you can get a reliable and accurate source for those chime codes.

Way to go Ford.

That should eliminate it from drawing in any air then.

Is it possible that you are pumping aerated fuel from the lift pump to the injection pump and that is causing the loss of prime? Somehow the lift pump could be sucking in air as it also draws fuel and sends it on its way full of bubbles which would facilitate a rapid loss of prime.

Nice to finally "meet" you Suzanna! I've heard alot about you, Mike and have had many phone conversations where you have come up in topic. Glad to see you have both found some happiness during your medical issues. And CONGRATULATIONS on the upcoming wedding! I hope to someday make my way west to meet Mike and now you in person.
