Today was such a nice day that I decided to take my 1954 Fargo out for the first time for 2024. It sure is dirty. I should put a cover over it when working on other projects in the shop.
The old Fargo fired right up!! Sounds good. A cover or tarp may not be a bad idea. That oil leak needs to be addressed. That's quite the mess. The old girl needs a bath. Looks like a successful first drive of 2023 though. Beautiful weather then, lousy today!!. Look forward to more. Be safe and stay well.
Hey Brian. Thanks for dropping by the Dog House. Yeah, I need to cover the truck next year. I thought I had the leak problem solved, but I was wrong. The only time that it leaks is when it is parked for the winter.. It never leaks during the summer.
Hey Bryce. Good to see ya. Thanks for dropping by the Dog House. I lost touch with a lot of my YT buddies. Something happened with my channel and they got deleted.
I Was Just Thinking That You Had Some Of That Beautiful Texas Sky At Your Place!!! Glad We Were Able To Spare Some For You Brother!!! The Fargo Fired Right On Up!!! Them Damn Transmission Leaks Can Be A Pain!!! Jackie Has Her Red Fluid Leaks From Time To Time!!! Keep Rocking It Out Brother!!!
Hey Curtis. Thanks for dropping by the Dog House. I put one up a couple of years ago and birds used it for a home, so I put more up for more bird houses.
Good to see you back at it Andy, Warmed up nice here but we have another snow storm coming Wednesday. There always seems to be something that wants to leak on the projects. Take care 🍻🍻
Hey Glen. Thanks for dropping by the Dog House. We are just calling for rain. You can keep that F%^&kn snow. I can handle a small drip, but I had to put over 2 quarts of ATF in it.
Ran when parked!😂 Those pesky leaks can be a real pain. You have a brake squeak all the time? My Fargo really howls sometimes. Good to see it in the daylight again.
I was going to compare the dust collection to the same trouble with my Corvette. But its not the same because you're using your truck and mine sits on the hoist for years at a time!!! Oil leak is frustrating, hopefully its something simple. (Sometimes the repair hassle far outweighs the annual costs of a liter of oil...)
Hey Loves. Get the Vet off the hoist and drive it. That's why you bought it. Life is too short to just look at it. Well ATV is $70.00 a gallon now, so I better find the leak. It's a good thing that I can get the oil using my son's garage discount. It still cost me CAD 52.00 a gallon.
andy sometimes when they sit over the winter the converter drains back and lets fluid come out the vent tube or anywhere it can i would fire it up and re top it off and see what happens after that might not be as bad as you think😊
Hey Michigan. Thanks for dropping by the Dog House. I had to put over 2 quarts of ATF in it. Will that work if next year, I start it up every 3 or 4 weeks just to keep it in the converter?
Hey BB King. Thanks for dropping by the Dog House. With the new electric fuel pump, it gets the gas quicker. It last ran in October. Cash just loves to be around me and the old truck. You can see how he is bouncing around.
