ummm....whoops!! lol

WEll Eric...now I know why my truck was running like @$$ the other day when I took you for a ride!!

Remember, I said it felt slow haha...Well remember the fuel tank switch I fixed...turns out that I had switched it to the tank with the year old fuel!! BLAH!! haha can you say 50 octane!!

Its been smelling horrible in the garage and running worse...but that is all gone now. Found it out when my "good" tank wouldnt take any more gas!! hahahahaha

Oh well. Guess it wasnt too bad,but sure does feel nice to have it running back to normal. Guess I will go and change the fuel filter now haha.

haha, it still felt fast to me, but thats cause my slow engine.

i bet your so happy you finally got both tanks back working.

you should put a fuel cell in the bed. i think i may end up doing that, cause i really dont like the saddle tanks

Thumbs up

Hey, that's better than having a "real" problem! I wish some of my problem were simply caused by bad gas. Although. . . . . . . LOL!!
