diesel gods smiled on me

I got stuck while taking off fuel heater to fix gasket leak I couldnt get the fuel filter stud out. So I gave up for the night and had a restless night thinking about what to do. I got a call at work from my dad (truck is taking up space in his bodyshop)and he said that a friend of his stopped by and the went into the shop and he saw my beast in distress.Dad said as he worked on a customer car his buddy kept getting closer to my truck and the next thing he new all he could see was his feet hanging out from under my hood and he had the fuel heater off in a couple of minutes and reassembled it for me.Oh did I forget to tell you he is a cummins owner ex-diesel mechanic and current custom bike builder. Its great to have friends in high places.

Sounds like something I'd do. I can't just stand around when something that I know how to fix is broke - I gotta jump in there and fix it!

Never mind Texas, come to Smithfield, Virginia. It is a shorter trip. Great food and beer for wrenching.
