So we went to Brooks and on Saturday we did the worst pull of anyone I think
in the history of the pulls. BUMMER. So we spent all day Saturday and Sunday
playing with everything that we could think of Saturday afternoon we did a
fair pull then Sunday we put in new wires new AC C87 plugs that were
recommended and it ran terrible. We then pulled an L to get it started and it seemed
to clear up. In the parade it was running nice and after that we put her back
in the pull and she sputtered a little at the first trying to get the heavy
old fashioned sled with a tractor on it for weight moving. She then took ahold
and lifted the front wheels off the ground started to just get enough power
to the rears to let them slip a bit and she made a full pull with the wheels
off the ground the whole distants and power to spare. Boy I hope this is what
its all about cause my driver was sure happy. We weighed in at 8975 lb. this
weekend.
Anyway we had a great time at Brooks and look forward to next weekends
doings. You guys still have time to come out and see what a fine place this is
with all its museums and running equipment from a steam operated sawmill to one
of the finest truck museums around. And of coarse you get to meet me giggle.
