Your towing rigs and trailers

[dodge man]

Pretty common sight, a Dodge towing a Ford to the shop to get fixed. I'm just kidding!

I will say one thing for Dodge, their Cummins diesel has a very respectable reputation. Ford's last few diesels have been a huge joke.

Yeah, Seafoam is great stuff. A few years back my dad asked me if I wanted his old snowblower (10 or 15 years old, 10HP) and I said "No but I can store it in my equipment shed for you if you want". Then last fall out of the blue he asks me if I am still using his snowblower and if he can have it back. I don't know how he managed to not hear me that I wasn't going to use it, but he had given it to me without draining the gas or anything, and it sat in my shed like that for about 3 years. So I drained the gas tank, the fuel lnes and the fuel filter, then topped up the tank with fresh gas and a shot of seafoam. Also changed the spark plug. Took a good few pulls to get it running and it rumbled like a tank for about 5 minutes, but then it smoothened out and after 10 minutes it was purring like a cat. That seafoam had cleaned out every bit of bad gas. The next morning it started cold on the first pull, and when I dropped it at my dad place later that day it cold started on the first pull again.

have you used any other products by seafoam? I have not. As a matter of fact, I didn't even know they made anything else up until recently. If the products are as good as the original I should probably try them.

I hate days like today. Cranked up the old F350 (332,000 miles) to work on the lights, and she ran really rough so I shut her down. Looked under the engine to find a big pool of engine oil. So I cranked her back up just long enough to load her on the trailer to transport to my brother's mechanic shop. Hope it's not too bad. I don't think it's much. Oil was coming from near the pump. My mechanic (my brother) said there are some high pressure oil lines on the 7.3L's that tend to fail when it's cold. <img src="http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/files/trailers-transportation/399299-your-towing-rigs-trailers-img_0443-1-jpg"/>

That a good looking ford. What size bed does it have?

<snip>Oh and the oil's looking pretty dark too, so might as well change it too...All together it was a $300 trip to the parts store tonight LOL.

On a diesel oil will usually be black almost immediately.

Ya, it's only got 350,000 miles. Still drivable but he chose to tow it.

I know you were just having fun and so am I.

It's a 12' dump bed. I really like the old truck. We don't use it much, but it sure is handy when I do need it.

No I haven't, and until you mentioned it I didn't know they made anything else either. Looks like my local crappy tire also has their transmission additive and their penetrating oil. Well there's my "something new learned" for today. :thumbsup:

I love learning!!!

Now I can't wait to hear from someone who has used one of their other products. I would assume they work as well but yA never know.
