I started with paint thinner , a little #1 and#2 fuel and what ever else ends up in there. Doesn't have the offensive odor of the commercial solvents. This is a shop built unit about 30 gals. and the pump is a foot from the bottom, never changed the solvent in 20 years, cleaned the sludge out once. My .02

I have seeen glass on very late trucks, I thought the plastic were replacements. Shutter change 1964. -
Did Mack Trucks go out of business?

What you have there is an early style rely valve, used on long wheelbase trucks to lesson the dely action to the service brakes. Late 60's trucks didn't have factory spring brakes, very simple air plumbing. NEK

Putting sealant on the cover bolts should solve the problem. -

B-61 T Contour Cab Rear Window Gasket

I have the rubber seal you need, it is unique to the concave cab. Neil -
You have sticking plunger you can unstick without removing the injector, but if it is scored it will stick again. You are going to have a very serious problem if raw fuel drips into the cylinder and you crank the engine, use the compression release. I wouldn't do anything else without first checking the injector. fifth wheel

The cab is about 2 inches higher off the frame on on the models with the aluminum radiator,verses the tin shell. I have seen it done, aluminum radiator on a B 61, the hood slopes upto the radiator. FW

Those look like spokes for single tires (floatation). Is or was your truck a tri-axle drive, I think Mack made some.

Applications where the engine is supported at the flywheel housing, there are two 5/8 studs at about the 11 and 1 0clock positions. You could try the B model hangars and brackets,they might not fit because the B frame widens and I think the fire truck frame is straight thru. I would just bolt it up.
