They ran injector cut-out tests and didn’t like the results. They ordered six new injectors. They’ll try them out one at a time to determine if one of them is the culprit. Got confirmation from our guy at Caterpillar that he is in contact with the shop; working directly with them. I think we have the right resources involved this time. Meanwhile, we moved out of the bus. It will take more than one day to do what they need to do.
Monday
We’re out of here early tomorrow morning. We have an appointment at Wagner Equipment in Aurora at 7am. We want to beat the Denver traffic. When MHC Kenworth rebuilt our engine last year, we ended up with a low rpm shudder under load. It’s still there. We took it to Holt Cat in Edinburg. They couldn’t fix it either. We’ve been talking with Caterpillar America. They found us a facility with a dynamometer for big rigs. Wagner Equipment. They’ll be able to diagnose our problem. We’re leaving Chatfield to drive to the shop in Aurora. We don’t know where we’ll spend Monday night; it depends on what they find. We might be in their parking lot. We might be in a hotel. We might be back here at Chatfield.

Henry pees *like* Annie; all four feet planted firmly on the ground. Judy told me the other day that he walked up to a tree, lifted his leg, looked up at Judy shocked, then lost his balance and fell over. It’s like his leg had a mind of its own and lifted, but Henry didn’t know why! Since then, Judy tells me, he has actually peed on a couple trees and rocks, but it always seems to surprise him, and he can barely balance. Keep working on it Henry. Someday you’ll pee like a man.
