can someone help me get rid of this here headache! PLEEEEEEEEEEEESE!
Perhaps I can (at least try) to assist.
As I mentioned earlier in this posting, we are an extremely small fraction of diesel truck owners.
And, being such a small group, and mostly avid followers of this tow vehicle forum, we've all read and know of the various postings regarding almost any of the diesel engines and their strengths/weaknesses.
So it honestly does no good to kick a guy when he's down, beat a dead horse, or whatever euphemism one wants to use in this case to indicate a subject already well reported and covered.
LOL, preaching to the choir also comes to mind.
Mind you, I know I also posted earlier. I do think that many here were not aware of the second failure experienced by the Canadian user I made reference to. So, at least in my mind, that was new information for many.
But perhaps we should let this one rest, as we ARE the informed group. I am actually more concerned about the folks outside this forum, or other diesel interest internet sites, who know absolutely nothing about our referenced Bosch HPFP, and through such ignorance, will most likely become the next victims, through lacking of a better word.
And for those, we, the already informed, can do very little. Except aggravate ourselves, and that is really not needed.
So perhaps we should all sit back, take a breath, and promise to reference this subject ONLY in the event that some new, previously unreported information on this phenomena becomes available.
Not a new happening, about another vehicle bites the dust. But new information regarding the root cause for this pump to go bad, or new action taken by either manufacturers or NHTSA to rectify this problem.
With those thoughts in mind, I do believe the aggravation factor would be lowered immensely and our moderators could put away the pain killers.
OK, I tried. :B
