I'm venting here, so feel free to move on to the next post! Last night my daily driver, an 01 3500 Cummins wouldn't start to get me home from work. Short somewhere in the electrical system and both batteries dead. So I bummed a ride home figuring I'd come back this morning with the 46WDX, replace the batteries and trace the short down. Now my 46WDX has less than a hundred miles on it since it was restored so I'm a little leary of the 55 mile trip to work, but at 5am, off we go! The last mile or two I'm thinking that wasn't so bad. Didn't get run over by any 80mph trucks! The 46WDX is running great! Steady 3000 rpm, motor seems happy, loosening up from the rebuild and running good! Then as I come down the exit ramp in front of my office, steam shoots out all over the place. I blew a core plug! Now I have 2 dead trucks 55 miles from the house! Time to call in some help I guess! Talk about your bad car day!
