  3. well went over 450 miles today. went through a border patrol check and had to go through a weigh station in new mexico called it a day in demming
  4. well they checked out the harness other than oil was good the sensor would go out of range after long use. would have been a hard one to find with out computer hook up. had them thinking. Would have been alot of parts replaced by me before got to that sensor. with out a meter your doomed mine is sitting in garage, good place for it. glad changed fuel pump and inner outer filter though they were filthy stained the cement black. ONE more brake down and every one will see the smoke from the truck not me. will try to be in chat tonight. dont know if i can stay logged in long keep getting knocked off server
  5. well started it up headed to chevy dealer almost there semi jackknifed on road and blocked it had to back track to different route. Well made it to dealer check engine light was on. I was working at the wrong end of system. Took them a few hours to get it to mess up. Crank position sensor was acting up. I would never have gotten that without a diagnostic tool. Took them a while to pin the problem down to sensor. They tested the circuits for shorts. So im in a super 8 here which is ok as it has been raining most of the day and nite here. maybe just maybe i can get back to enjoying this trip, just wont get to do what i had planed. As all extra cash has been taken care of. The semi was knifed before i got there cops were in charge already. Looked like he missed the exit ramp and lost it. I was on a frontage road in case it layied down never drove over 40mph.
  6. WELL shoot wam bam one more time. im at elite cabins going to try to get into chevy garage its 7 mile away monday. ran perefect for 250 miles died just like fuel shut off. the park said i could fix fuel problem here. used washer and dryer tonight. will pull top and look for myself. and have another fuel filter. if tank bad will order and change out. with another pump. replaced relay. i know it the pump as it sounded like it sucked up a cork thump. at least im at big spring tx. made it through dallas:255:
  7. well its up and running. going to take off in the early am. So i think... Try to make odessa tx. That is around 430 miles there is rv park with laundry room. tank wasent to bad inside and pump was clean but sock was filthy so hope picked up all the bad with old pump. the place treated me real fare on repair cost. Going to take me a while to straighten up interior. Vat a mess..... and they didnt get grease and hand prints everywhere. now will see if it has fainting goat blood.
  8. well the weather isn't bad here haven't done a lot of riding today. They called me and said it starts right up and runs. So i told them one more time change fuel pump and make sure there is no rust in tank. I dont get it whats the big deal. pump tank dri and wipe out with rags or something. give gas to a kid that has mini bike double fuel filter it and he is set for a while. or drop tank and replace its in writing if needed. stomach is acting up today so staying close to throne. Guess should have stayed home.
  9. dont think i met him but best wishes from me. and prayers
  10. well one more time and trucks name will be lucky. I told them if real nasty replace tank lines and straps but be resonable
  11. wow my friend.... prayers double going out all week. you doing ok.
  12. yes the bike tryed to tip over road was real rough for quite a few miles. highway pegs saved it
  13. well threw a fuel filter on it to get down road made 300 miles and low and behold same thing. Called local parts house got off phone. They brought all the parts I asked for. Thought that was super nice. Didnt help replaced fuel filter and it never built pressure again. By the way was in another real small town. Got towed to a truck shop in canton texas. They cant get to it till noon tomorrow so have time to ride around. Here are a few pics dont want to get in trouble with photo cop hahhaah. Also biggest mosquito Ive seen landed on me.
  14. Almost forgot ill be in chat tonight as stuck in motel.
  15. Well i made it to a shop. If you top off tank to brim will use seven gallons and die. Think tube in tank broke off. So im stuck in motel till running again. Had the wheel bearings adjusted as wanders going down the road. The passenger is plenty loose can make it move. Looks like rain tonight. here is a few pic puc ill see if i can post the rest in photo bucket been a while since it was used. Photos dont work in you tube do they. Talk about board to death.
  16. Well broke down in ten killer state park. Farmer pulled me to camp site. Stuck in oklahoma.
  17. Drove all over today had to tighten one strap. Went thru a cat scale weighed 8600 total. When I got every thing loaded its full. Never stacked any thing. Took charcoal and tripod for cooking. The only thing that makes noise is antenna hits door sometimes. I can live with that. Think I over packed. Got enough tools for repairs. Even picked up a gps for when im lost. Picked up my half of a hog from butcher was supposed to have been done Monday they just finished it at 4 pm today. Think got all bills payed for month. Even the surprise one from today. Getting ansey. Hope to remember what I forgot tomorrow.
  18. Well I bought a 30 foot corded switch, had to change socket on winch. Stuck it on left grip and used it. Worked real slick they have wireless you can install but then there is battery maint. and they cost more. also put bolt through ramp where door pin goes in ramp dont move
  19. welcome.... Well the fuel pumps shut off after pressure is built up. Did you cycle the ignition a few times? I would not use cleaner to start it could get into diaphragms by accident. The choke is on the left side of tank almost middle. Would not go more than 3/4 way out max they flood easy. Flip the kill switch on handle bar a few times also.
  20. well i got it in and tie down brackets installed. alot easier with winch. now to pack up
