Your big heart is acknowledged and appreciated.
As your offer has been declined, let it be known that we are ALWAYS on stand-by for anyone with needs of prayer, Benevolence Funding, and just good ol' brotherly friendship and moral (though sometimes immoral) support. ALL in the best...
Thanks for that input, tractors0130.

Finally finding time to tinker with the XM818.
With new batteries in her all the electrical seems A-OK. Even confirmed she has power to the Fuel Solenoid. So now chasing the fuel system.
The EMERGENCY Fuel Cut-Off Cable and Valve are both functioning properly and I've confirmed the Fuel...

If the tranny is in REVERSE and it's bumped from the rear, the engine would be "push started" and run "backwards" causing the truck to go FORWARD...
I had hoped to be able to make it to this year's Texas Rally. But you can be sure I have trusted God to light my path and guide my steps.
On one hand, I am sadly announcing that I will NOT be coming, HOWEVER......
On relatively short notice Dianna and I have been invited, along with several...
I have just received a call from CARNAC.
I have shockingly sad news to report - Dudley, aka Atankersdad, has passed away this morning, Monday March 7, 2016 due to complications following his surgery in Baltimore, MD.
This just happened and details will be posted as available and appropriate...
