My old truck isnt as dead as i thought.

      Yesterday I carried all the trash I had loaded on my old truck to the church dumpster across the road. It is emptied a 5 am EVERY TUESDAY. I have coffee at 5.15 on Tuesday morning because it wakes me up. After I got that load off the truck  I go back to the house and start grabbing more stuff to haul over to the dumpster. By the time I was done I could barely close the lids . Now a lot of the stuff was my son's trash from his old camper and scrap wood I had lying around .

         The old truck had a water leak and spent all winter with no water in it . Right before I got sick I had 4 freeze plugs replaced and one still dripped. I never got a chance to take it back and it has been so long asking him to fix it now would be wrong . Well I filled the radiator with water drove it to the gas station and put 5 dollars in the tank drove it back home . The temp gage hit 190 or so but that is its normal .  I saw no leaks under it. This morning I take the radiator cap off its still full. I drove it about 20 miles still not running hot  and no leaks. All I can think is when I filled it with water it had some rust that got stuck where the freeze plug leak was. I was going to seal it with liquid glass and copper shaving but with no leak It won't work. liquid glass

     

    Wow this is the only picture I have of my truck  and its 5 years old at least. After 12 months of not leaving the yard it now has a nice green and yellow tint to it. Next up it get washed and bleached when the sun is out.
