Hey Eddie,
That is not all there is to the situation. I can't get the big truck in the shop for a week, but the throwout bearing is making considerable noise, with a million miles on it, I'd say it has seen better days. Still yet, it will go a couple of weeks or months if I baby it. The Buckeyes have our annual meeting in Plain City, OH next Saturday. I'm guessing it will work to hold off until next Friday, put my big truck in the shop, then go to Plain City on Saturday. Monday I can go get my flywheel, put it in the machine shop, and get new tranny oil, take that back to the truck. Then while my truck is being fixed up I can cut beans. The beans are not the objective, it is the truck that makes the most money for me. I'm just creating downtime when I can use it most effectively!
Have a great day!!!
Andy
