Disregard that
-
When you first start the engine ! Does it stumble and smoke ? Then clean up?
-
Buddy I would lean towards a fan hub on this!
-
Try unplugging the tem on the side of the pump! If the timing still fluctuates it’s likely the ecovance at fault! If the spring in the econovance is broken the timing can float All over the place! Please explain what you hear/ see at start up!

Do you have a code reader ?

Mack auto vs manual power divider- swap over?
fjh replied to Lmackattack's topic in Modern Mack Truck General Discussion
Trent! To convert to a power divider lock out you will require a different outer cam and most likly the cam housing and the lock actuator housing also you will likely have to shorten the drive shaft! Thru shaft is fine! -
Post you vin Heinz may be able to help!
-
My bet is the diaphragm!
-
Joey he mentioned this above! (I’m not sure when you push thethrottle down and it moves the lever on the pump all the way forward)
-
You need to t into the inlet line of the pump! Did you check the smoke limit tube!
-
Not likly! You would likely have smoke if it were a turbo issue! Fuel pressure check? Also the smoke limit device at the top rear of the fuel pump ! It could have a hole in the diaphragm best way to check this is to take the air line off it and suck or blow through it if you can blow through it needs a replacement diaphragm!

Check the ash can for cracks on the front elbow before you take this on ! -
Teachers assistant will comment that the 14 inch and 2 inch combo was most common on the 1200 series trans and the 11/2 was odserved by me to be more on the 95 series’s trans! observation

Volvo Mack is us built! And like gm and ford dodge all being tariffed to hell for what gain! Kw is building shit in Mexico! They have the advantage here in Canada! just saying!
-
Agreed!
-
Don't Know Jim ! Cummins is the logical replacement as there solely us it in the MD light duty! Very strange as Volvo Makes a plethora of engines for other shit ! boats equipment and so on!
-
4 hrs is about all I can handle these days! Take lots of breaks I can go most of the day! 4hrs or so of productivity !
-
Something almost cheap from the Volvo turds unless you bought after market!🙄

08 Mack CXU613 - engine start and then shuts off within seconds

Stuck engine brake sol? Had this happen once! Engine will die as soon as the oil pressure comes up! the key here is to observe when it happens!!! -
1987 R688 oil leak
fjh replied to Djs87's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Front for sure ! You might be able to do the rear with out! I advise using silicone instead of a gasket also a dab on each bolt ! just me! -
Fairly common you need to put some dye in the fuel filter and run and check with a black light to confirm! As mentioned better than throwing injectors at it a bit of expensive amo for the parts canon on a guess!
-
Get your self a new side kick bro! Make the looks over the shoulder worth it!
