Problem resolved

I woke at 7:45am this morning to discover I had missed two calls from Cummins in Knoxville, TN. Called them right back and set up an appointment for 1 pm, so we quickly closed up the RV and headed out. We left Wytheville at 9am, drove 178 miles and arrived at 12:30. They took us in, evaluated the problem, and said the diagnosis code indicated a problem with our fuel filters. I was asked if we had recently filled our fuel tank. Responding in the affirmative, they strongly suggested the fuel had water and or contaminants in it which clogged our filters, especially since we had driven over 300 miles prior to fueling without a problem. Happily, that seemed to fix the problem. What a treat to drive without needing to put on your flashers because your vehicle is moving too slowly.

We left Cummins at 5:30 pm and decided to stick to our goal of 350 miles a day. We drove another 160 miles toward Nashville and arrived at the Nashville East KOA at 9pm Eastern, 8pm Central. Set up, and went right to bed. Going to sleep as soon as Blue Bloods is over. Treating ourselves tomorrow by leaving at 10am Central. Next stop, Little Rock Arkansas.
