Taco, that's not a new idea. Where I used to work the guy had a restaurant also. Found out 1 of the cooks washed his dirtbike parts in the dishwasher, fenders, side covers, etc. I'm not sure if he washed the fuel tank too, never heard. :lol:

I got a new top turbo for the 01 and put the 64 mm back on the 1stgen. My buddy has been driving the 1stgen for a while now. Today I was headed down the highway today, and guess who happen to pull up next to me? My buddy in my truck. Well of course we had to run them. We started off even at 60. I let him get about a car length ahead of me before I hammered down. Drove right on past him. I feel a little better now after my disappointing 1/4 mile time

After a long time of leaving my truck sit I have finally got it to fire back up. Turned out my fuel pickup was bad. Changed outwith a spare and fired up in a couple minutes. I think I need injectors or least they need cleaned and set. Has a little white haze as it did last I drove it. But it fires as soon as the starter engages. Makes me very happy to see smoke come out again. Where's a good place to buy a v band clamp for the down pipe?

I was talking to my boss' son about putting a 12v in his Oliver 1955 yesterday. For those not familiar:

http://www.tractordata.com/photos/F000/712/712-td3b.jpg

It has a really high compression 310 ci engine in it that's supposed to be about 100 horse. He's got it turned up a bit, but it's blown 2 head gaskets at $300 a piece. I think 50 extra cubes and 150 ponies would make a good tractor for mowing hay and plowing. Of course I suggested a VE engine.

Don't matter now! I flew under the radar, even though I think it's displayed on the bottom of the main page.

Let the guilt tripping begin :lol:

Happy birthday Levi. I think I remember seeing Caleb's name at the bottom of the front page, but did nothing about it.

Thanks, everyone. :)


The old man has a 1955 Oliver, but it's some ridiculous 4wd thing that seems really short, lengthwise, and tall. It's a cool old tractor though.
