    I agree 110% that the site reps are so much easier to get along with, they understand that life happens, especially when you are dealing with shippers or having to travel 100's of miles to get to the nearest GL or GP. If I may ask, what was the storage fee for 1 day? If i remember correctly, if...

    I removed the cubical so that i could clean up the threads on the cannon plugs. I see where it would be a pita, there is a support structure right in the way when trying to remove those cannon plugs. I didnt have any issues with the bolts coming loose, it appeared that the unit had either...

    yet another delay of game, trying to warm it up to flush the cooling system, and the dang thang shut down, said it was out of fuel, i guess when everything started to work right, then it said, 'oh my gauge says i am out of fuel' Luckily I bought/ordered 2 senders when #1 sender took a dump. Will...
