Hey guys..... The powermaster she got is no good. We spent an hour getting it switched out and no pumping!
We had a mechanic do a voltage check and found a the pump is frozen.
As I write this she cruising to Charlotte, at night all highway, on manual brakes to avoid traffic

Is there anyone in or around Charlotte with a PM pump or PM assy? She needs it Friday!

Chatanooga to Charlotte without coming through our area??

That's a long haul ....

Worst case scenario I have a PM with a good pump you can borrow to make it back home. It does need a good accumulator for it though & maybe the pressure switch as well... (It's been a while since I looked at it.) My house/shop is only minutes from the dragway/speedway where everything is happening with the Power Tour today. Bad thing is I'm at work which is 45-minutes away... Should you need anything give me a text or call! Tommy Bowen says he gave you my #...

You gotta be kidding.....Christina, call me!!

Should have given her the other one I had too...One I gave her came off one of my personal cars about 5 years ago...It was working when I took it off. Wish I had a vac setup I could have put on her. Feel bad now.....Thought I was helping her out!

Kristina, I have a vacuum brake pedal but of course it's in STL. I think Aaron Corn is going on the Power Tour at some point. If you get him and he hasn't left I can give it to him in STL. You will need a vacuum booster and master cylinder (any auto parts will have those). You will also need vacuum T and some 3/8" or 11/32" vacuum hose. The stock Power Master brake lines can be bent slightly to mate to the master cylinder. Don't know if you want to go that route - taking off the Power Master? Hope you get the brakes fixed.

She's driving through mountains right now with a bad powermaster and that ain't good. Has anyone heard from her today? I tried calling but it went straight to voice mail.

Got a call this morning from Aaron Corn that his Cam Sensor is bad so TurboDave & I hopped in the Excursion and headed down to Athens, TN where they were doing surgery on Craig's Heater core... Aaron now has a Brand new cam sensor and they are on their way down I-40 to intersect the power tour where it merges back onto I-40... Hope all is well with everyone! Your in good hands with Keith (NCturbos).....

Hi All.... THANK YOU EVERYONE ! !

It was a CRAZY week....I feel like I didn't get to see many cars or enjoy the event this year...But I met a lot of great TB.com members.

Keith (NCturbos) brought me out a whole setup... but then the heavy rain came in.... so I didn't get a chance to put it on.
Saturday after Long Haul Awards... I left her with Pilot and hit the road to St Louis with my fellow car club member "BasherBob"

I ended up having GN transported by Pilot Transport up to Chicago. I here working at the family farm. My GN was delivered late Friday.... which had my laptop in it.
I was in St Louis for a few days ...hibernating... LOL...I grabbed the Vac brake set up that came off my old GN... and headed to Chicago.

So, my project for the rest of this week is to put brake system on. I remembered to grab the pedal.... just need to pick up some vac lines and brake fluid.

AGAIN -- THANK YOU to EVERYONE ! !

(STP) -- Sending you a PM to get your parts back to ya =)
