Well, Sammy went on its first outing this weekend to an air show! Everything funtioned as expected but the fridge would not light. I looked on he archives and am going to try to pump air down the pilot hole in the fridge, I will let the list know what happens. The big news is that we achieved a speed of 65mph going there on the highway (26mph tailwind) but could only go 42 mph ont the way back <g>. Maybe one of these days I will get stopped. Day by day my confidence grows in my lovely diesel, so lets don't be trashing diesels. :-) Fred 1982 Vanagon Westy Diesel "Sammy" 1984 GMC Suburban Diesel 4 X 4 " The Beast" |
