Hi Rich,
Missed you at Arlington this year.

My truck's broke. The timing chain finally gave up at 300,000 miles.(
Ford
F150, 351M engine) I'm having so much fun.

Rich


Ahhhh, ever hear of preventative maintenance? Being a Ford, you are lucky
to have gotten that much out of it! g

Congratulations on getting one that far. I've got a Chevy van that has
219,000, and coming to Osh, a round trip of 2,000 miles, with a gut full of
my unit's luggage and camping gear onboard, and a pull behind grill. (knock
on wood)

To me, about 150,000 is the about the limit for oil pumps and timing chains,
cause if either of those two go south, the rest is not far behind.
