Okay I’ll try and get a different sensor and go from there. Thanks guys!

Ya I really liked it all the comforts of home and it was only 2 years old I didn’t care for the 4 valve 300 it was underpowered and it sounded like a Cummings it was almost as gutless as a 237 but it did pull the hills a lot better and it was governed at 70 mph

Did anyone get anything from this auction? I forgot to bid. But with 20% buyer’s premium, 6% sales tax and shipping there were no deals to be had.

l just tripped over this. .....Hippy

I sure hope so. But you just know they are going to ruin the Granite too at some point.

Reporter: Why did you shot him 38 times? Sheriff Judd: Because we ran out of bullets! LOL .....Hippy

The higher HP injection pumps (ESP-3597 - 350 2v) take a bigger transfer pump and a larger thread hand primer. Pai used to list it as NA, but have recently removed it completely from their catalogue. They do still list the plastic plunger for the big pump (#21) Last i knew Mack was the only option at $1200...

Sorry cant get pictures to load but here is an interesting one on CL. Not mine, just sharing. From the poor pictures it actually looks pretty decent. Cant see any cab rust and bumper/grill look straight. Anyone interested in 1966 Mack FS 700 L with GMC 702 V12 engine on propane.

Both the 200 and 300 series used the cab with the 3 piece windshield. I believe there was a name or number for it, BUT I do not remember what it was.

RS-700

#6/10 is the style I had in my road call service box. noticed on the what's called E9 the screw in threads are different.

bet you wish you still had the flat back '87 U , I favor the Brockway with "Brockway" cab. Guyott oil in CT had a number of Brockway tractors . 671 ????

You may be right as Brockway started using the Mack cab in 1975 or 76??

IF I WASN'T MARRIED I WOULD DRIVE DOWN PICK YOU UP AND PAY FOR HALF THE TRUCK !!!!! it's that darn IF word

Every state needs to learn the law enforcement that he provides, and Do It !!

You haven't lived until you've driven a worn out firetruck cabover with that transmission and a really worn linkage. There are 5 forward gears there somewhere, but after many fire crews with different drivers of different skill, finding the one you are looking for, is anything but certain.

Trent, Do you have Ambac or Bosch pump on your 285? As it seems to me the most calibrations of a pump are done in the governor. The pump sections may be different by the plunger diameter the most. And that point should be checked some way. But very possibly that's similar between the two. Also the shape of cams can differ in the cam shaft. Some have steeper upcoming curve for faster pressure increase and "harder crack" on injectors but that doesn't affect combustion much as I was told by a pump guy (I actually was told "as steeper as better"). Besides that all specifics are housed in a governor. If you have both pumps of similar style you could swap it over. But no way for Ambac pump to adopt Bosch governor.

As I remember they all have similar threads where you bolt them into the pump housing. And the threads are metric if I'm not wrong. Interesting that European vehicles with Robert Bosch pumps use almost similar hand primers. What we here have normaly in shops are German Bosch or aftermarket primers and I used a couple in Mack pumps.

Those numbers are always there. I have 3 or 4 E6V4 blocks with them and about the same count of E6V2 either. They're not an engine serial number definitely. Probably some internal factory markings. Might matter a group of parts you use working with a parts list for identification but I'm not familiar with that subject. One of my trucks has those put into the registry papers as the engine number. Looks logish if you don't know of how that number should be marked. And that's a kind of issue for me now since we're able to swap an engine legally if install a similar one. Which means similar model designation. In my case I couldn't use another similar E6 block in place of the old one since that different one is stamped differently in THAT spot.
