We left this morning about 9 expecting a 3 hr drive. We stopped and ate breakfast just before we got to Mobile, Alabama. Our trip was going well till we turned south off of I-10 headed to the Gulf. We started smelling diesel again and our fuel was dropping. We found a safe place to pull over. We had fuel pouring out the bottom of the truck. It didn't appear to be spraying like before so I figured the new #6 fuel injection line had cracked again. Called Good Sam and they had a mobile unit come out to look at it. It was about an hour and a half till he showed up.It turned out that they must not have tightened the #5 line and it backed off the threads. .Easy repair for now. If he couldn't have fixed it then Good Sam was going to call a tow truck to have us towed to the nearest facilty that could repair us. The tech followed us to make sure we made it to get some diesel. I had never seen my fuel gauge that low. We made it and finally got on the road again. Arrived at Topsail Hill Preserve State Park and set the trailer up. Decided to go out for supper and come back home for a long happy hour.
