Thinking is a BAD thing

Still waiting on funds (aka my crappy Taco Bell paycheck... I should try saving fryer oil for Beasty) to try a new less cheap pmd and with some other crap (scuse my language I really am a lady. 😛) life has been tossing our way I've been over thinking everything. Could part of my trucks issue be bad fuel? 2 weeks before she rev'd up and went rogue on me I put a bottle of Lucas injector cleaner in her, took her swimming (way back home from town was a freaking lake, good old Tyler Texas and too much rain) and the next day she popped an ignition fuse.
I fuel her up at the same station most of the time and never had any problems. First time ever using Lucas... In any vehicle. For my gas buggies I prefered Gum-out. But the bottle never said it was good for diesels. So in addition to that what do y'all recommend?
I need Wednesday to get here quick. My birthday and payday..

Anyone in East Texas needing a pup? I have 6 Boxer/lab 3 month olds needing new homes.
 
@WarWagon for best experience beating fuel bug advice.

Definitely have to have agood running rig before messing with alt-fuels.

Friend of mine has a couple lab/ boxer mix dogs, Really kid friendly. Big enough that they look like they would be some mean dogs to have mad at you- but I don’t think they know how to be aggressive they are so lovey and easy going.
 
Yeah about the pups. Dad (Boxer) is a 90lb monster who hasn't met a person he doesn't like. My girl Baby is a Lab/Red Heeler about 60lbs who has no concept of personal space. But neither does Jax. The pups don't stand a chance. Little lovers all of them.
The biggest pup is about 30lbs and almost the size of Mom. At 3 months old. Someone is coming at 5 tonight for 1 of them.
 
Had a dog fight about an hour ago between my Boxer Jax (3 years old) and Bear (lab/step 1 year old brat). They are quite capable fighters. Bear has a hurt shoulder and Jax has a big old tooth gash above his left eye.
 
Boys will be boys..lol.. I agree with will stay away from the alternative fuel until you get her running right and then only if you really know what you're doing... That's a really easy way to mess up your injection pump injectors and pretty much everything else.. don't feel too bad I think everyone on here has been in your situation needing parts we can't afford and waiting for a paycheck to get them...
