I am on my third set of RV tires. Blew the first one at an age of 9 years. Michelin OEM tires for the first set. Then what ever I could get. Replace my truck tires after I carried a very heavy load and remembered the truck was 10 years old. Got a little worried but was ok.

i seem to have the most trouble with trailer tires, not so much with my vehicles tires, they just seem to catch nails and screws

Good morning y'all. Anyone have experience with aftermarket p&c? I have a 660 that doesn't have the compression that it should. I've heard that Meteor are decent. I'm not afraid to pay the $ for oem though.

Is the OEM cylinder damaged?

If not, re-use the OEM jug.

Just get a new pill and rings.

Good morning folks.
Looking to have some partly cleared skies for later this morning.
We got 1.45" of moistures over the weekend, and more seems to be coming in the not to distant future.
63f to 82f or so today.

I have bown maybe a dozen trailer tires. Why I carry a battery powered impact with jack. I have gotten home and the entire wheel was missing. Hub and all. Bent torsion axels.

My worst battle is with leaking tires because of aluminum rims. Electrolysis at the valve steam forms a leaky tire. Trailers and autos.

Good news!

I am sorry thought it was your vehicle.

And what is this emissions you speak of Kyle
I know nothing about that stuff

As much as I believe the older diesels are solid performers, this new stuff isn't to my liking. With the example of a new Cummins setup in a new pickup not able to tolerate being put in gear....... Prefer an engine that didn't depend on a computer to know how to run.

I think I’m going to start looking for a ‘67-72 F150 to drive. The kind with points. Getting to where I’d rather not have a computer controlled vehicle.

Understood. Switched every vdub motor I had to electronic sensor ignition. Almost never need to adjust, easy to dial in for best performance.
Seemed pricy at 1st but eaze of use sold me. Points have that bit that rubs on high spots and wear. Sensor just "sees" the signal

Yessir, trucks or chainsaws, no computers! That said, I'm driving a 90 F250 and a 2000 Dakota.lol I had a 88 Dodge w250 with a 360 and a Ford 2 barrel carb. The prior owner had taken the throttle body off and made an aluminum adapter plate for the carb. Why a Ford? Don't know. Good morning y'all!

Have used adapters on several V8's to put on Ford 2 barrel carbs. They are super easy to rebuild and change jets.

I liked it. I took the carb apart once. Such a simple carb!

You passed partway between @Hedgerow and me today. Building is the Jasper County courthouse. You were also quite close to Stockton lake as well when you stopped at Muncy's in Lockwood. Should have gone fishing there like I did Saturday.

Good morning fellas.
Woke this morning to moistures dripping from the windows, makes it easy to breathe while it's still cool out, but it is just a BIT muggy IMFO.
More liquid sunshine expected in the next 24.
