  1. just remenber your the only one you need to please.
  2. early 864
  3. and I just took off a pair of straights because of the noise.
  4. They were a partial/flow by/pass and was need on old engines. But newer engines do not need them.But it would help keep the oil cleaner if you used one.Better than that a spinner 2 is better than the luber finer.The newer engines have better filters than older engines.Alot of the mack engines used a filter like the spinner 2 which is call centimax along side of the two full flow filters.These are a centerfuge spinner.
  5. That is a truck driver myth.at least since the early 60 I know mack engines we rated at the flywheel.If you think about it a injection pump id how the HP is set and if the HP was set at the wheels the pump rebuilders would have to set the pumps on the engine when being dnynoed.I have hrard this all of my working days and it started on the road over the CB.
  6. [t is in right so leave it along.
  7. It would not be a bad ideal to start to think about the end times we have read about for years.
  8. Mike on judgement day non of us will have a excuse that will hold up in court very long.That also goes true with what we see that will happen some day cause we all have computers and the info is out there if we want to kown what is happing.I am just glad that my parents and others did not forget their children like we are.I and many are taking the stinuses money that the goverment is blowing in some way.I spend some of it thru the jobs that we get from that money and some just take it cause its free.More is on the take than are paying in.That is not going to stop cause its like a run away train and know one dares to get in the way.The this morning China tells us how they can blow us away with no problem which i believe.Then we hear earth qakes here in Okla ever few weeks and yes Revalation is beginning to have some meaning.
  9. This president is so ungodly and so is his followers.If you voted for him the second time I say you deserve what is to come. The Bible teaches me to use the signs of time for whats to come.It tells me how easy it will be for the man of sin or antichrist to fool and gain support of the people.They will suck up to him until the Lord comes back.When this thing is all said and done some one will have to admint its not all Obama to blame cause his suck ups did boo God at the democratic convention and its a good thing I am not their God but I do think they have his attension.
  10. I saw a glider kit come in one time and when one of the mechanics that was going to build it fork lift it in the shop and when jacking up the cab it flopped over on its nose.It had about same wheel base
  11. The next time you used the engine brake roll the windows up and hold both doors open cause that helps on a mack.
  12. That is what I always tought that was breaking them and that was over torqueing.
  13. Let me tell you about the E7 mechanical.If it is a Em7 it is a maxidyn and goes good with a 6 speed but if it is a E7 it is good for a 9 or 10 speed.The maxidyne can be changed over by a fuel pump builder.If it is a 300 just set the fuel out about .090 and time to 16 to 18 degress BTDC.The engine that I run is a replacement for E6.It was a 300 but I had the pump cal to 350 and timed it from 9 degress to 18 using a turbo from a Vmac 400.it is set to 1900 max but needs to to run from 1100 to 1700 for best fuel burn.It will pull down lower than the E6 and still run smooth.If you time it to specs which is 9 degress for a 95 year engine It will pull down as low as a gas burner but will burn more fuel.Some one has done stated that they have more grunt than a E6 and that is caus.e it has a 1/2" more crank stroke
  14. As a dump truck I don't think they who hold up long as many flats we have plus they who not have the clamping force as steel.after the chrome starts peeling from the tire man hammering on them you who have to say something to him about it. Then the next flat you need repaired he who let you set all day before he helps you.
  15. Let me run this by you. I work with a Russian friend that has a 01 350 that was doing same thing. He did not ask for any help or advice from anyone cause don't know English so good but took it to many independent shops hear for repairs. About six shop over a 8 month time and some could tell him what it need like we do here over the phone and he invested about 7500 dollars in it from injectors to unit pumps and sensors but no help. He took it to the dealer and they replaced the ecm and no help. I think he told me they put his old one back on.They told him that was all that had not been replaced and that had to be the problem. He and his son one day said if they plug the header in even in the summer it will start and start all day after that.So he got the ideal that it may be low voltage to the ecm so he replaced batterys. first with no help and then the starter next. its started ever since after that.And some call him stupid at work. I feel ashame that I didn't take time to help but cause if it had been a cat cummins or DD I would have checked that first and should have had a low volt code.I do not know mack electronics but they shuld have a low volt code also.check it out.
  16. AND IT DONT TAKE ALL DAY TO STOP UP THE AIR CLEANERS.
  17. Those bolts your talking about should be body bound. I started to work for mack in 65 and they were same in old trucks that were 15 years old then.But that is what keeps things tight.
  18. for dye that I use in fuel I get from cummins and it is for using in oil but will work on fuel and have used for years.No special tools need to pull E7 injectors.
  19. I just last Friday repair a E7 for fuel in the oil.We run it on some fuel with dye in it and then pulled valve covers and black lighted it.[t was injector o/rings leaking up and into the oil.
  20. To test it back off in a mud hole.
  21. Thanks kscarbel for so much information and photos.
  22. Mike I broke a wrist 3 weeks ago but that at nothen to what you have been up to.Doc told me fri to get some therapy on mt arm as he was pulling the staples out so I said I will.I plan on dump trucking tomorrow.Sat I tried the driving out so don't plan on using the left hand any for a few weeks.
