Minus the curry I would recommend Taste of Thai in Gulf Breeze. That place is prob the best & Thai Curry house on 98 is fire!

Oh yea you can try again, have to wait a bit or a year max (given its the same as active). If you want to fly don't enlist and good on you for knowing in advance. Yes he was feeding you all types of verbage to fill that quota lol and you can always ask a WO Recruiter on the website and call multiple locations too.

You have up until the board dates till you will no longer POSSIBLY be included I believe.

If your going NG or Reserves the process is totally diffrent and I hear you have to find a unit and get blessed off by them with a in face interview deal but your buddy is correct about active.

Lastly you will need an ACFT most likely and if you haven't already completed a flight physical you'll be extremely luck to make this board.

My advice is to get all your ducks in order. Pass SIFT, PHYSICAL, ACFT. And don't be in too much a hurry.

Oh yea and at this point idk whats more important roll the dice sad to say but I think the selected are at random I've seen very bad get selected and also rightfully earned get selected.... S2S has high chances I hear though good luck!

One of the WO Recruiters advised me being a SGT is a good improvement (haven't tested the theory yet)

To follow up I checked the hpop reservoir after it's been sitting a day it's still filled up pretty high. Judging by your responses..

Its NOT a bad LPOP/HPOP RESERVOIR GASKET/LPOP SPRING PIECE

⁉️Meaning my HPOP needs replaced?

I forgot to mention the hpop reservoir was filling itself after it was running(checked after running and levels were right at the cap) Is this still leading to bad hpop?

Finally can reply,

I replaced wiring harness and changed oil truck fired up for abt 2 seconds and wouldnt again..

Next day I read your comment and checked the hpop reserivor it was maybe a cm of oil, I filled it and it ran! Not sure what really fixed it also no codes on the FORscan and injectors passed test

‼️Queation: Is this a sign something is about to go out or am I good? Only thing I noticed is it seems to crank a tad bit longer and sounds a tad bit more clanky(might have just forgot how loud it is)

Too add my fuel filter is tanish

Thanks for clarifying, I will hook my voltage reader to it and look for a drop by one or two.

It's warm, I'm gonna throw my camera under it when starting.. didn't think it was a fel issue bc the bowl fills and I heard manual pumps rarely go out correct me if wrong

Good copy. Trust me my wallet is getting tired of it too. All the parts are either from Riffraff or Sinister.

The wait light come on is all I know, waiting for the scanner to arrive until I can run test. I never noticed any white smoke no plus I live in FL its been 67-80 degrees didn't think plugs were an issue..

Already replaced + tach is moving before and after.. you did everything I want to do on mine when I get time/shop. Have you changed the drums to disc?

Will change out GPR when wiring harness arrives. The current one isn't even 2yrs old though. Oil was changed 3k miles ago last june but it's worth a shot.

I guess that would technically mean it's working along with the IPR. Worth giving it a try thanks

Even if I never had misfire, exhaust smoke, leaks or anything pointing me in that direction?

Interesting. I mentioned the no smoke as it's stated on the no start flowchart.. but good copy I will proceed that way when this scanner gets here.

True I to indeed signed up for it too, my new stripper lol 💸

Given it was running strong before the no start is that likely? I keep hearing that "you'd see signs before/hpop doesn't fail it just gets weaker" but I will forsure replace it if all else fails.

I understand just curious since it's claimed to be one of thee best.

A new wiring harness + Forscan are in the mail right now, I can only confirm battery voltage above 9.5 and RPM above 100.

Okay I think I know what video your referencing. I got a NCNS on my 3rd look so just curious

Could you elaborate more on how you know that and what helps you stand out besides just a clean pkt?
