Those are slow engines but will usually start at -10 degrees.

Well it was slightly wired wrong, so it probably didn't need all that ether. But she ran pretty good all things considered.

I got a crane with a 8.2l detroit it will start doesnt matter the temp but slow is a understatement.

[@ThisGuysStuffandStuff]

@@nou8257 That'd be a cool old truck. 8.2's are cool engines but DOGS! haha

[@nou8257]

@@ThisGuysStuffandStuff Yep that 12 ton crane on the truck is the real reason i own it that thing is so handy to have around.

I assume y'all don't have a big enough trailer to throw it on, so your best bet is to keep doing what you're doing until you can get it to a safe place. Whether it be the roadside in a place where cars can easily see you or an O'Reilly parking lot, just get it somewhere you can work on it and put it up on blocks. I think your only option from here is to take those wheels off and see what's going on inside 🤷‍♂️

Complete with firewall holes to service #7 & #8

Get a cover plate and remove the PTO box!

You don’t need to worry about a blown hydraulic hose. Hydraulic fluid will barely even spray everything. Wrap er in some Toby tape and it identifies as brand new.

[@ThisGuysStuffandStuff]

Well the property owner didn't want any hydraulic fluid to touch the ground. I haven't tried to just tape a hydraulic hose haha. I'm not so sure it would have held the pressure. Hard to see on the video, but it was a gaping gash in the hose.
