Normal maintenance.
General comments?
Oldest & most used Wrecker I have. 410,000 miles on original engine. Had 3 clutches & 1 transmission rebuild (5-speed). Still has reasonable pulling power. Burns 1 quart of oil every 700 miles on the highway. Burns 2 quarts of oil idling overnight for 10 hours.
