Now it's gushing oil

As an owner driver of various trucks from old Internationals to early and later model Inters and Macks if I could not fix a breakdown on the side of the road then I had my Father who was a fantastic heavy plant Mechanic and an even better Mate ,a few times he would drive 12 hours all night with his tools and parts to get me going, without him I would have gone broke , or worked for nothing but you are right Sean its satisfying to fix things yourself
