Default Broke down heading to haspin. Minor problem...

So much for trying to fix what aint' broke. Bottom raditor hose let go, was rubbing in a spot. I replaced the bottom hose a month ago, good thing the old one went in the truck as a spare.

At exit 66 on interstate 70, route 54(in ohio). Made it to the fuelmart, so plenty of antifreeze and water. Got plenty of tools, so should be back on the road in a hour. Also have cold beer in the fridge.

Anyone heading thru, feel free to stop in for awhile.

Dennis

Glad you have everything under control Dennis. This can actually be some good news for the lot of us that use the interchage hose. It's more of a 90° than 2 45° angles and as such, if you don't shorten it enough it will rub.

I won't be there in time to lend a hand (hopefully) but I'll be heading that way here directly.

Best of luck to all of us!

Wouldn't mind convoying to Haspin from my direction, but noone this far east seems to want to go. Trying to convince AM30Y+'s sons to carpool with me, but not sure they can take off work...

Dennis, good thing that hose busted now, and not next week. Get all the gremlins worked outta the truck now before the real event takes place.

Getting psyched!!!!

Did anyone notice that this breakdown was from last year? I think Dennis has had it fixed for a while now.
