Archived Help for a friend please!

[Okie-Go]

A friend sent me a text bout an hour ago from Casa Blanca, NM. He has a drw 3500 with a gn horse tlr. He thinks he blew the motor, The tlr is new and never had a horse in it. Is there a possibility some one in the surrounding area might could help? My# is 409-771-3098 His # is 214-498-1092, his name is Jeff.

Year, transmission?

I am not sure what the plan is or his needs are. Is the trailer his or does it need delivered? What about the truck, haul to the nearest shop or his home town? I am about 4 hrs. away and can be there about 8 am in the morning if he still needs help.

Come, we want the story! From blown engine to OK without details? SNOKING

Maybe Okie will up date with the goodies, I don't know anything other than he is okay now. He (Jeff) just sent me a text that all was ok. Okie is in East Texas on his way to Florida so maybe when he stops he can update us. So cancel the Amber Alert

Not for nothin' but if you can afford a 3500 and a trailer that never has had horse in it, why can't you afford a $35.00 annual subscription???

Big-daddy, How do you know he is not a member. He might not have a computer with him. Since you want to judge someone the trailer is not his. I am certain it was picked up from the factory or either a customer delivery. I said he thought he blew the engine. That was probably his first thought! I do appreciate the help and when I have a better chance and more details I will post. Thanks again!!

I was just saying, I see this type of post frequency. I am not going to pick your post apart for I did not mean to offend you or your friend. Peace brother...

 

[Okie-Go]

No problem big daddy. Temper was kind of short I guess. Like Snoking in Washington, wonder how he could help? Maybe a good way to get more post's. Any how I did here from Jeff, a close friend from east Texas took a trailer out there and took him home.. As of Wednesday pm he did not know for sure but said it was major.. Oil all over the deck of the trailer. When I hear more I will pass along the info..

What year is the truck? Maybe KDP?

Crankcase full of fuel?

Tone Ring on crank? Mine came apart a while back and blew a hole in the pan at 70. The ring got all ground up and destroyed all rod bearings in less than a minute.

Good Luck and keep us posted to his findings

The guy looking at Jeff's pick-up is thinking it might be the turbo!!
