Well we started our 500 mile trip to Commerce GA a little ruff. Not long after getting on the Florida Turnpike I felt the engine skip a couple times then it lost all power (not good)usually if this happens its time to change fuel filters. After doing that with no luck Teresa said how about the thingamajig we had trouble with the last time. Da why I didn't think of it first is beyond me but sure enough what appears to be algae had completely blocked the fuel check valve before the primary fuel filter. So after cleaning the check valve and reinstalling it the old Cummins fired up and ran trouble free the rest of the trip. Thanks Teresa. So we're here the weather is looking a little iffy but hopefully we'll get the race in.
