No dice, though. Again, something was froze up inside. No matter how long hubby ran the engine, no air would build. So, we gave up and got a motel room that our company has an account.
Yesterday, the back-up mechanic had to come in and work on our precious girl. The regular mechanic isn't due back till next week (that's the life, eh??).
Anyway, it turns out the governor in the regulator wasn't governing or regulating or even snoring. There was another hole in something. Figgers, huh...
So, got that replaced and air built up...then couldn't move. The tires just spun, even with the differential kicked in. So the back-up mech got the front end loader and pulled us out.
Finally, we got on our way but as you'll read in the previous post, we missed having to chain over Mt. Hood (actually Government Camp).
Just another day in the life of a trucker!!

Thank you for your comment. Since I'm not always 'on' the 'puter, I have to wait till I'm in buckshot of the 'net somewhere. This may take some time so don't despair if you don't see your post immediately. I'll get around to it...or not. :-)
