    I'm 30 miles outside of Dallas heading east on I20. I went to go buy a model a from another hamber in Mansfield. About ten miles outside of Dallas I started to notice somepower loss going up a hill, then going down it I could only go 40. I think I got some bad gas and don't know what to do. Don't want to leave the trailer out here.

    If you think you could lend a hand, bring a fuel treatment etc my number is

    504 650 7842

    advice on here will also be welcome

    Looking at Mapquest I think you are pretty close to Mesquite, TX so I'll call and give you Slide's number. I think the Dirty's are near there as well but I don't have thier numbers.:eek:

    Yeah, I called and left you a voicemail with Slide's number. You should also have my number on your caller ID if you need anything else.

    and yep, I've got AAA but there are good for just a couple of things, towing you away and bringing you fuel. Great options to have but sometimes that's just not enough.
