    HELP! HIAB question (CRANETRUCK)

    I will take your advice and save the water pump Scott. Ethan has an air compressor that looks far better than what is on the partial engine, but I don't see a spare water pump.

    HELP! HIAB question (CRANETRUCK)

    Hey Scooter (?), I found a rusty dipstick in the motor box!!! I will take it back with us to Massachusetts, and get it to you somehow. Then you won't have to use your vicegrip to check your oil level. Robert
