Pullstart 62,916 #52 Posted July 9, 2023 The show was great, but we all must leave eventually. Had an amazing meat and taters supper thanks to @Achto, @joebob and Joel and (ta-)Mara! We filled up at the Madison exit by Camping World, dumped our tanks and stopped at Rest Area 17 for the night. 4 hours and some minutes to home. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 62,916 #55 Posted July 9, 2023 @ChubbyMinnow remember when I was saying I enjoy the adventure? I was just kidding I have a massive crack in my radiator. Good news, is I have a spare about an hour away, if I can figure out how to get it here 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,916 #56 Posted July 9, 2023 It’s been found! @squonk don’t worry as soon as I get home I’ll work on our big video of the show. (No kids riding tractors of course!) For now, I’ll be pulling the broken one and waiting. @bds1984 I’m at the Paw Paw TSC if you’re looking to heckle any dirty people today 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You were pushing some pretty good temps on the way to PA. Those plastic rads don't like that! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It seamed to be running hotter than usual on the way to and from WI. I had just pulled a pretty big hill when I started smelling something funky. Shortly after, the low coolant light came on and I was conveniently rolling distance from a highway exit! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,916 #61 Posted July 9, 2023 Full, bled, started! Building temp again, we’ll take a short drive for a lunch break and check it again. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The tire fixer was quite young. “Joey” at Pomp’s didn’t quite know how to remove a valve stem. I pulled my knife out, slit the backer off and pulled it out for him. I figured it would be a lesson he wouldn’t soon forget. The shop manager told me the valve stem is $8, but to just take care of Joey. I handed him $50 in 10s and 5s and thanked him for his help. A few other guys had other to-dos with the repair, so I did what I was told, and hoped he would share the wealth with his buddies. 6 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 41,156 #64 Posted July 9, 2023 What is it with you guys and valve stems. I've around vehicles and RV's for almost 50 yrs. and never saw a failure on the road. Might be time for some metal ones. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Achto 27,609 #74 Posted July 10, 2023 (edited) A few pics from my camera. A very well done narrow front round nose, along with a few others. This creation. . The A&W invasion. We had a Friday night cruise around the show grounds, which ended by taking a trip up to the near by A&W. Jacob found an alternate use for his new low dollar tiller.
