    air line freeze up

    They are easy to plump in. It seems to me they need to be mounted several feet away from air dyer.Like 6 to 8 ft??? The more I think about these evaporators,It seems we had a discussion here or somewhere else about Airline Alcohol and possible damage to modern plastic valves that have wiring...

    air line freeze up

    Sounds like it was a stuck valve for 1 reason or another,,dirt,,sludge,,or it may have been a slug of ice?? I doubt draining your tank on this day would have stopped this from happening especially if was already below freezing. I'm not sure but I think some of the airline antifreeze has a...

    air line freeze up

    Dave is correct,,In a perfect world and properly maintained air dryer nothing else should be needed where most of us operate. But just in case you have one of those days when the planets don't align for you this is a real good thing to have..They works great and very easy to fill.Just make...

    Weekend Weather

    Pretty much the standard in the Industry..Priority is to get the freight on the truck,,Worry about the tow truck later. This snow event shouldn't be enough to shut anyone down unless the 4wheels or a few super truckers that feel they can do anything get involved with ya. I check weather on...

    Waterfowl Opinion Survey

    The DNR says its time to rethink our seasons..Every five years I guess?? I dont remeber getting this in past years but that dont mean I didnt miss it. I get a survey most years,,just dont remeber this one. As close as I can see they are asking if we want to split up our zones and change...

    Anybody got a time machine?

    Don't ask em anything..Just get the freight on the truck.. They got pd the big money to put this load together. Run with it for 11 hours and let them worry about Xdocking it or not. As far as the time machine,,Maybe leg 2 is just going to the airport and you just dont know it yet..:D

    The Price of Going is Up

    To funny,,like someone said, Dont do that again.I cant remember how many times the checked book has been tossed my way and I heard the same thing. The food bill is one of the easiest thing to trim..Our problem is we are buying all package food instead of making it our selfs. Only a guess but...

    Would you pay $20.00 a week for Ez Pass and Pre Pass.

    I dont think I want it from the carrier..Sounds like it could be 1 more deduction on settlement day even when ya don't run the toll roads.. And would this not increase p/work on the carriers end?? Sometimes I have gone better then a week (if not more)without getting stopped at a open scalehouse...
