This past week has been terrible. I took the trail bronco down to Carolina Backwoods and sank it in a mud hole. They pulled me out backwards right into a pond. It almost rolled over on me, I had to swim out of the cab. I was chest high deep in water when I decided to bail. Someone has pics.
Anyway the motor locked up and I had to field strip it when I got home down to the block. The top of 4 pistons were covered with 1" deep with black mud. So far I do not think anything is broken, only my feelings.
Pulling the bronco home last Sunday I could tell the F250 was running funny. I pressed forward in hopes it was just my imigination. Monday, I head to work and find white smoke coming from the exhaust of the truck, I was freaking out of course. With some investigation I find one of two things is wrong. Blown head gasket or egr cooling valve. Either way it is going to be expensive to fix. I will be without a car for over a week starting Monday.
Man what a bad week!!!!:banghead:
