Here is a short clip of it driving. I have the smoke turned way up but that will be fixed later today.

Working on your rig is like a really great date: you start out expecting it to be something simple and straightforward; four hours later you're laying under her, panting and cursing, and things are a lot more complicated than you ever wanted.

Nice to see that it drives again. Hope you can turn the pump back down easy. Nobody is gonna wheel with it smoking that bad.
You can follow me.... but it's gonna hurt ;)

I was just playing with it to see how much smoke it would produce. Yes I can and will turn it down. Just one screw on top of the injection pump.

Since us XJ folks get a bad rap anyway.. .I humbly request that you not "roll coal" and that you, in fact, remove that term from your vernacular.

Nice work getting it on the road. 8)

Some of us may have lost a bet. :roll:
Okay, we're a little crazy to have a Duramax for a daily driver. But if we go off our meds, we might wind up in a Prius.
