Scranton, PA Petro. Getting PM done on truck, then heading north tomorrow for a Monday pickup. Beautiful day here and the view from the Iron Skillet ain't bad!

I'm right up the road at exit 188 getting an EGR valve and a temperature sending unit replaced.

Well, that would stink. We wish you luck. At least the weather is cooperating

The problem was "fixed" $1552.42 later only to have the exact same issue happen again 10 miles later. At the Petro now to see if we can leave the trailer because I can't get moving with it on.

So, Moose, glad to read that you plan on getting to the Convoy, again this year. Are you going to get sponsors lined up for your truck so that you can win a new seat?

Sounds like you need a mechanic who knows what the hell he's doing. Dumbassity can end up costing a lot of money.

A new code came up for the Variable Nozzle Turbo Mechanism which makes sense because I lost my boost from the turbo. There were codes that came up for the EGR valve the first time so a problem was fixed, just not the problem I was having. I guess I can see why he thought it was the EGR valve due to the symptoms and codes so I can't really say he is an idiot, I just hope it gets fixed this time.

So the Sprinter is already low on antifreeze since it has a bad water pump. Sorg Dodge in Goshen, In filled it on Friday and I didn't idle at all this weekend so I'm guessing it's out of service time until the dealership can get the part in on Saturday. This pretty much sucks

Why will it take until Saturday, thats crazy. Did you check euro parts or anything?

Sitting at the yard. Had the Sprinter looked at yesterday and the waterpump is going bad. Going to run regional this week and get it fixed on Saturday morning at 8am...then going out of service for a much needed vacation on Sunday for a whole week! Well, maybe. It depends on how antsy I get. I've been out since May 30th so a break will be overdue.

that should be a nice housepayment

DON'T USE THE TRUCK WASH BEHIND THE TA THEY WILL MESS YOUR TRUCK UP AND OVERCHARGE YOU. the guy tod me $45.00 for truck wash he washed the cab only while banging all kinds of thingsd into the truck when I asked about the rest of the truck he wanted an extra $35.00 this is a class 8 D unit blue beacons have always charged me $55.00 wax included.
