Wow, even my own side didn’t respond. I see where we stand. No wonder we lost everything. To Asia.

Oh I forgot to mention entire time I’ve been with her I was on layover runs then mostly night runs so I didn’t spend a whole lot of time with her ,,I was gone all night then slept all day while she was working , now we’re always together lol let’s see how long we can go without beating each other to death lol .. like wow man there’s a challenge

If you justran the truckup to temp and felt each side of the tap This would give a good indication ifthe tap is working or not Is there shutters on the radiator ? If there is, do theseworks If the water in the cooling system isn't getting warm it won't matter about the tap Personally I don't really ever have a need for a heater in a truck, sometimes on very rare occasions it does get chilly So first things first, water has to get hot Then the tap has to be on Then some air movement And presto, a warm cab Paul

You can also unplug the EECU and check for continuity across the terminals in the plug. If there is continuity, then it is shorted in the harness

I haven’t had much time to mess with it. Will probably start this coming weekend.

finally got a minute with this thing

Vlad, I presume a large part of your problems are getting a visa from Russia??? The pictures I posted when we got home was on the old Just Old Trucks website and that crashed an we lost everything. Those pictures were in a better timeline order and the topic was 9 pages long. I have lost Stephanie's email address, but I still have John Vanatta's, so he could forward hers to you. You would also have to add New Zealand as there is the big Richardson museum there. I was thinking about going back in about 2019, flying into Rockhampton or Brisbane, renting a car. There is a museum in Gatton, several private collectors in Dubbo, work my way south to Sydney and participate in the April Haulin of the Hume, stop at the Wall of Honor on the Hume (similiar to our Viet Nam memorial wall) which honors all of the drivers who lost their lives on the Hume HWY, do the Snowy River Hydro project, Then take the Indian Pacific train west across the Nullibor plain, do the gold mine in Kalgoorlie, and on into Perth. Contact Aussie Paul and he can probably help you find more museums and private collections to visit, as well as possibly a ride on the Haulin' of the Hume??? Have Paul send you a map of Australia with some of the stops highlighted.

I bought mine from Manders Diesel for $250 per "kit". The kit was the motor, tank, tank mounts and controls (start button and relay valve). I bought two "kits" and they came with the voltmeter and low pressure light/buzzer from the 1st generation of Volvo's Roadway had. All I had to add was the -20 air line and the -6 control lines. I bought 2 because I wanted spare part in case I had a problem, I found them so reliable, that I converted my other truck to air start. The one that was too short to add an air tank on the frame, got the Maxwell ESM for electric cranking.

Mine is also an Ingersoll rand it was $1,000 bucks exchange in 1995.. lol but I’m sure you can work with that one good luck

Good luck Paul. I really don’t have anything to add on this one…. Bob

Thanks for the replys.I will post a picture of the heater A/C controls as soon as I can.As our summers are not that warm A/C has only become popular since the EU mandated it for all new vehicles in the last 15 years or so.As a result Iv not much experance with it so decided to ask before just tearing it apart.I will bypass that tap and see if it gives any heat.The electrical switch does power up one side of the fusebox when the key is turned on so I think your spot on with that Geoff.Thanks again for all the replys.... Paul

Irish Paul, Just click on the big picture in the post. It will then open the Flicker album. The same as the pictures of Macungie that Otherdog has posted..

We can all see that Gov. Walz and Mayor Frey didnt get upset until our gov. looked into the 18 billion dollars of free money to illegals in St.Paul /Mineapolis... well the current population of the twin cities is apx. 730,000... divide 18 billion by thay number and its ... $24,657.53 / resident... So tell me why the True residents have not used their voice to tell Walz and Frey to go to hell. We know you are corrupt. Ok... so where is the money?

lol thanks for that.. I didn’t want cruise liner Paul to get confused

Bob, It is Aussie not Ozzie!!!!!

Excellent best of luck with that … frustrating as hell when you can’t buy a replacement well I was going to post pictures and inspector clouseau has been on the computer for hours uuuuurrrrr

Yup on the money there bro! In the mh era these used to be one of those things you checked for before chasing a head gasket failure on the E9 !

ls that the one that jack-knifed on l-80? or l-95? or l-76? or l-81? or ? https://abcnews.go.com/US/video/amazon-truck-loses-control-veers-off-road-123466521 .....Hippy

An E-7 with electronic injection can take it at 500hp but I’m not sure about mechanical from 350hp. I think you need to change the cam . Something is different on the e-7 400-460 than the 350hp

Getting back to the coolant valve. Could you post a picture of the heater/AC controls? If it is the Red Dot control I am thinking of, the air would come from it, when in Max A/C. Red Dot made lots of the heaters for trucks and would stencil the truck makers name on the controls. The one in my Marmon IIRC has one port that has air in the A/C position. Some one might have disconnected and plugged it at the control.
