  1. Rob the few 149 DD that i have worked had a reservoir for about 1 qt of oil that never drained untill the lack of oil from the engine oil pump. That way it waould pick up instantly from the resevoir for maybe a 1/2 min. On the woodward on your mack if you ever check the timing i can still remenber how its done on that gover.
  2. Rob that would be a woodward governor. Good thing about them if you loose the oil pressure the engine shuts down.
  3. I like the too long chain.
  4. If it was my engine i would install a turbo but dont add any fuel. This will make it a clean engine and add some power. The cranks was bad to crack in the years they were in production.
  5. Same head. I have built two NH 250 engines with turbos on them from the N927. Making them a 855. All be cause tears ago when they were still in trucks the crank was weak and hard to find then. All we did to them was install a 250 crank and rods with 250 injectors and pistons and calibrate the fuel pump. The N927 was a 250/270 with out a turbo. They could be set to a 270 HP.The N927 block used a different oil cooler than the 250.
  6. Maybe and maybe not.
  7. That would be a JT cummins with a R46 trans.The 220 cummins would have a radator stand up behind the cab with a drive shaft running along the top or the left frame rail from the acc drive pulley to the rear of the engine with belt drive pulleys at both ends.Most of them use a 5 speed and 2 speed axle.
  8. I my self would hate mys self if i told some one to inframe my engine and they will do that. Then you find out that its a oil cooler or cracked something.May whant to get some one to drop the pan first and take a look.
  9. And if it has spun a brg good chance the crank is cracked or too soft. The mechanic will check for cracks and the hardness before they grind.
  10. You run a good change of spling a brg if you use it with coolant in the oil. No short cuts to the repairs you need.
  11. That is so easy to figure that iam going to let GearheadGrrrl tell you.LOL I my self dont know how to tell you cause i dont know what your asking.I be just little slow thro
  12. Do what this man has stated. The problem is with who put it on and not the rebuilder. I have seen many times this has happened. Just remove the trodle linkage from the lever and go to full throdle and then return it to idle. Make the lever go to idle. You will see that its ok. Now try to figure out what you need to do. You will have to shorten the linkage or lengthen it and also move the linkage joint down on the lever some. They should be more than one hole for the joint to go in on the lever. That maybe all you need there. Now if you have been adjusting on the throdle screw you may have to readjust.Sound like the pump shop run out of patiences with you.He knows what it was doing on the test stand and he did not want to argue about it. It would have been easy for him to walk out there and show you what the problem was.
  13. Have you found a E7 mechanical 400 engine? If you have to use a V mac then you have a lot of electrial work to do. And yes the rears will handle the torque.
  14. I have install sevral in the past years and one thing i will tell you to do is water pruff the unit more than it is now. You have it mounted were the road salt can get on it and that is the killer. I would spry it with the clear plastic spray or some selicone arould all joints. I see thay have a better looking cable now. The cable was something that would get salt in and frezz up.I run a dump also but dont need a cruze that much but today i ran 540 miles and most of it was on the big road.So i to whished i had one.
  15. Its not on the timing cover but on the block infront of the fuel pump drive were it bolts to block. In the rounded part of the block on top or like been stated in the rear of the block if from a F model.
  16. Four dollars a gallon here now so who would want to put fuel in one.Thats only 25 gal for 100.00.I burn 50 gal a day so i know why i ant got no money.
  17. I the B model day i only remenber the F model having the filler on the right side bolted to a side plate. All the B models i remenber was in the V/C
  18. If i had my druthers trucks would be wired with 440 and inside of conduit piping.Wonder how many knife blades would be burnt off.Or drivers denutted.
  19. Its no problem to get a account but i cant by from them. They have dealers around that can.
  20. The 5/8 bolts was torqued to 175 ft lbs. No fire ring.
  21. I have seen them do that and most time its from getting in two gears at once. Low split and when you go into direct the low side fork comes lose and if your moving slow enough it will stay in low and go into direct then bang. Also a hard pull with big HP may do that. Look at the PAI website for parts.
  22. Its that old road you run ever day. You have got to get them to repair more roads.I hauled asphalt over near your house last week.
  23. Yes you could and may still be able to get a seal that rides on the crank but the one with a wear ring is a set up to save the crank or if crank has a wear ridge in it the wear ring will take care of the wear on the crank.
  24. Sound if the dog is trying to comment suiside. Tired of this old world.
