Since Oakley is wanting me to wait 6 months of employment to go to tanker. Might be going to Prime using your code. Because before I came here I watched your videos. Food grade tanker is much easier than Cryo which I did before

Glad to see you making videos again, but I got to say, make that dude do all of it. Let him make those calls to get the PO numbers etc, the more he does it them more practice and the better he’ll be.

I've got the same color truck. 830106. 110k miles no major issues. If the truck loses power and struggles to get up to speed, just being super sluggish. Instead of taking it to the dealer and letting them waste time trying to diagnose it just take it to a Loves and get the fuel filters replaced. Mine was diagnosed as a fuel rail issue which includes the injectors. The dealer said it was probably bad fuel. I took the truck back and went to loves and replaced the fuel filters. That was two months ago with no more issues.
@albertotognoni4819Ай бұрын
Should Bad fuel requires a complete wash of the fuel system and changing injectors other than replacing fuel filters

LOVE the color on your Binder. Generically, it is called RASPBERRY. The WORST vehicle color it black. Oh, sure it is gorgeous, but, it collects dirt & dust for a hobby. On the way home from the carwash when you pull into the drive, you will notice road dust has settled all across the hood. If you buy a black vehicle, on the way home from the dealer, stop at a full serve car wash & setup an account as you will need to spend every Saturday morning having that black ride washed. NEVER buy black. The best color? TAN. Altho tan is not an especially handsome color it hides dirt unbelievably well. You may forget to have it washed for 2 or 3 years at a time. !
