Now I'd like to find something like that or a little smaller for a 350.  Nice find!

Marcsrollin probably wants those Tahiti emblems.

 Well it happened again  , something new followed me home again .   This time it WILL NOT BE USED FOR PARTS !!!! 

 Home safe 


 There were some issues on the way home  .


 Well it was a 512 mile trip to find this one, that started out realy good . Until I picked up the boat  .  As soon as I got back on the freeway the truck started acting funny  (missing and low on power) .  So as I'm driveing along trying to think about what might be wrong I hear this strange noise and look up into the rearview just in time to see the right trailer fender flying through the air (thank god it flew straight to the side of the road and not into trafic).  Somehow both welds broke loose ( L.A. freeways  ) .  I stop , go back and get the fender, and notice the left fender is only attached by the front welds now (thay were both solid when I picked it up). no problem I have an extra tiedown and I strap the left fender to the trailer (fixed) .  I pull back out onto the freeway  (Yes this was all done on the side of the 5 freeway) and the truck gets up to about 45mph and starts missing realy bad and popping, backfireing all kinds of nasty stuff  .   I pull off at the next exit and make it into a parking lot where it dies and wont restart  .  I call BUSBE/ Brian and he comes to the rescue  . We check every thing we can in a parking lot with just a few tools i brought, its running again but bad .  We shut it off think about it for a second and than start it again and the fu##### thing  starts and sounds ok  .  Brian follows me for about 15 miles in the opposite way he needs to go just make sure I'm ok ( GREAT GUY !!!!! ) .  He ( Brian/ BUSBY ) must have called me 10 times on the way home to make sure everything was ok .  The truck ran fine all the way home 250 miles. Than after parking the boat and closeing the gate the fu##### thing dies again  . So, now its sitting right where it is in the above pics and wont start  , I guess I'm not working on the boats this weak 

 HUGE thanks again Brian

So ... did the truck ever start???

Is it over being pissed off???

Pictures my man, we need pictures ... I know you've had to be messing with the boat already!   

Is it a fuel injected truck?

Strange thing is it got better mpg on the way home pulling the boat ! 

That's because you didn't have your foot in the throttle as much 

I say it's the fuel filter or pump.

Correct me if I am wrong but doesnt the pickup in the fuel tank have a screen filter on it? Could it be clogged? If not, I am sure you have sediment in the bottem of that tank that could have easily been picked up and clogged the filter (just doin its jobs). I would still start there, cheap fix if it is! If thats doesnt solve the problrm your not out that much $$
