Well I got a good scare and a good laugh too. I was heading out to drop of some product for a customer. I was trailing a neighbors Ford. I laid into it and was at 45+lbs boost at 70+mph and was well in front of him and the shot gun went off. My first instinct was to let off and my stomach sank. I was like not again. (blown motor#2 I thought). Well My truck kept running and running well. My turbo was loud as hell but I instantly knew then it was one of my boots that have been slipping that I have been monitoring and meaning to take apart and have a bead welded on the aluminum elbow. I drove to the party store that he owns and he got out and asked, "did she let go?" I said nope ! Its a boot. He said that he heard that pop with his window rolled up and then seen a big black puff. I said you think it was loud for you ! I heard it and there was a big brown spot !:rofl:...........:rofl: I had my mini socket set with me and it was a 10 min fix loosen the 11mm bolt on the clamp and push it back together and re tighten. I know have to drive like a girl until I get the bead welded on my aluminum elbow. A beer and some tears !
All in a day between a laugh and a tear!
