JAG1 made it to my place.

[Mopar1973Man]

Yeah that's right JAG1 is camping in my front yard with his Dodge truck and truck camper. I'll post up pictures tomorrow in the daylight.

I love that camper rig he has!

[Mopar1973Man]

I snooped inside it last night and for a truck camper I was shocked how much stuff they crammed in such a small space. Really shocking to see a full sized RV fridge in there. (WOW!)

 

Most likely tomorrow I'll install the VP44 and get it done. Today is suppose to rain all day. So I'm not wanting to work in the rain. Also his setup won't fit inside the shop anyways.

[CTcummins24V]

That's nice!

[Mopar1973Man]

Well today was long day. Started out changing JAG1 injection pump and found the grid heater gasket were brittle and tore. So I stopped and ordered a intake gasket kit to get the two new gaskets for the grid heater. So ran to McCall and picked up the gasket and ran back. Finished up the injection pump install. JAG1 had picked up a cam sensor and installed that as well. But everything worked out good.

 

Busted JAG1 trying to escape the camera...

[Wild and Free]

Why do you think the intake cover plate gasket isn't in the same shape as the grid heater gaskets, you were just a few more bolts away and you had the gasket in hand at that point?

 

What was wrong with his IP?

[Mopar1973Man]

True to a point. With daylight running out both getting tired and few other side project occur the one gasket was skipped.

[Me78569]

yea I am curious, the IP must not have been too bad if he had the guts to drive it to your place haha. 

 

 

 

That picture got me to thinking......mopar1973man fest 2015????

 

I am sure we can fit 20 or 30 tents in your yard.

[Mopar1973Man]

Hey now. Mopar1973Man Fest...

 

JAG1 has been driving on this old pump now for 4 years with P0216 code and driving back and forth to his Mom's place in Az. That really crazy.

[Me78569]

who needs timing? 

 

 

 

....so was that a yes to mopar197man fest????? 

 

Ill bring the beer, Ed can bring the pig,  and we will eat drink and be merry.... and maybe fix my front end. 

[Mopar1973Man]

 

Ok... Camping is $15 a night without hook ups. $17 a night with power. If you bring the beer it a automatic $5 discount.

[Me78569]

what ed doesn't get a discount for bring a pig? 

 

 

 

 

But really I need to fix my front end.  Got a welder

[Mopar1973Man]

Pig... Ahh... Bring a Elk then he get FREE stay...

 

Yes I got a welder but its a basic one. Cheap Harbor Freight...

[IBMobile]

I'm thinking of going to Yellowstone this year.     Your place is only a mere 10 hr away from there and at $12/night with discount it's a heck of a deal and the truck doesn't need any work.

[Texas CTD]

That's a clean truck, JAG!

[JAG1]

Thanks for the comments. Having a great time here.

 

Should have Mopar Fest.... This place is great place. Mike and Mopar Mom are neat real folks.

 

A great place with beautiful surroundings.

[joecool911]

Is your bad code gone now? I bet Michael could make quick work of converting my truck to stick shift.

[Mopar1973Man]

Yeah the code is now gone. I grabbed my scanguage and reset the code for him. I figure the next time he comes back down I'll plan on doing the other other gasket for him. Conversion might take a bit more consideration.

[JAG1]

Has to chuckle when I saw the turkey pic, my red heeler almost had a wild turkey by the giblets this weekend in my backyard, put the sneak on 2 of them and I wasn't paying attention to her because she was playing with a couple squirrels a few minutes before and then I heard the rukus start and 2 of them flew right over my head by about 3 feet with her hot on the tail.
