    You can tap it on far enough to get the nut back on won’t hurt anything!

    Are we back up and running yet?
  3. fjh

  4. fjh
    Yes.

    Not sure on your codes! How ever did you examine the rocker shaft to make sure it wasn't cracked ! It almost sounds as thou the engine brake is on! Or you have a bent valve! Can you identify which cyl it is! Cylinder cut out!after watching the vid My opinion! The smoke is lack of compression smoke! and it sounds like only one cylinder! I would nail down which cylinder first This looks more like a physical issue! Just sayin!

    Do you have a puter with ptt? that will do a cut out test? cylinder balance test? Jpro?
  7. fjh
    Its on top of the Cylinder on the top rear of the trans!

    No there’s enough trickle down lube all good! And as you know the lifter is way better!if you could round up a set you wouldn’t look back! The old style was a welded on hard surface I believe the new style is a billet !

    Dodger please don't take offence ! I am trying to view this from the big picture your current financial and personal challenges as well keep the costs to a minimum while weigh off the other stuff that's been going on in your life there ! The father situation is going to be a difficult and long haul as well! That's a nasty situation ! One of my good customers son had LGD it took its toll on his life style!

    NO! do not cut wires ! leave everything as is! You risk a derate if there is an open circuit! the computer as is now just sees there is not enough EGR flow! And will just open the EGR valve more! if its blocked it won't matter! changing manifolds will require a different turbo the wheel speed sensor won't be there something the computer looks at! BRO don't mess with things we know what were dealing with up to this point! Till you got enough cash to deal with the turbo end leave things alone! You know what to do to make it pull!

    Yup we used to sell the Hino product ! They are a good unit but like Volvo they know how to charge for parts!
  13. fjh
    Yup good plan! Some Guys get carried away pulling everything to bits when its not necessary specially when parts are scarce ! I wasn't thinking about that when I first posted! Let sleeping dogs lie! disturb as little as possible!
  14. fjh
    anything involving bolts on the hot side of any of these EGR engines is a pain ! MP engines are worse! turbo studs break everything is bad on them! after about a year of operation its a nightmare to have to work on any exhast stuff! Just ask Heinz how much exhaust stuff he sells for MP engines! and is cheaper to buy the part some times than piss around trying to get broken studs out!
  15. fjh
    Re Read the other post on the other thread bro I added caution there
  16. fjh
    yes
  17. fjh
    under the EGR Valve! also if the guy has an air hammer that can assist in removing the manifold end! assuming the center section is still usable! how ever the less you disturb the better off you are if the egr valve can stay on leave it on if the part is that scarce might be an idea to leave it alone the studs that hold the valve can break!
  18. fjh
    Yes piss poor way to go out!One foot in front of the other! Do your best!
  19. fjh
    Heinz? Pai? Mack? Which section is cracked Center? While it’s apart have him make a proper 1/8 thick block off plate for under the egr valve!
  20. fjh
    Yup attitude has a lot to do with it too Remember Heinz ! And you got the stuff! KEY IS You take pride! And also totally agree as we have said before that Volvo half baked program for parts look up Ain't for the faint of heart to run! Secret little side drawers to look in and stuff ! The search feature is Shit Just piss poor!
  21. fjh
    Yup hard as hell and non magnetic! tough stuff!
  22. fjh
    If the truck is standard you can put in hi gear jack up a back wheel and bump it with the drive line if no air you may have to cage the brake on that wheel!
  23. fjh
    If you do a Google search lots come up ! Ebay ag kits ect just phone around try stay away from used the original lifter was not the best! The one with the stepped face is the best!
  24. fjh
    Typical ! Couldn't be under something sensible like switches! 😡 Backwards Sweeds
  25. fjh
    Get this stuff Lucas Oil 10153 Assembly Lube - 8 oz. Wonderful shit ! It will stick the lifters in place! Im playing about with a VW right now same scenario lifters stayed put during assembly ! Buy the way the E7 lifter is the same! MAK72GC357
