2006 cx613 egr delete
mackrmodel686st replied to mackrmodel686st's topic in Modern Mack Truck General Discussion
Its an e-7 427. But it doesn't seem to make anywhere near that much power. I used to drive an older e-7 427 without the emissions garbage on it and it would climb hills way better and the fan didn't kick on half as much. -
Does anyone know if there is an egr delete kit for a 2006 cx613 with an e-7 engine? The truck seams to be way underpowered. The truck seams to have to work way to hard to climb hills loaded and only gets worse when the fan clutch kicks in.

I've got a 2000 cx613 vision with an e7 427 at my shop. After years of the Jakes not working we finally solved the problem. It turned out it was the switch on the clutch pedal. Now the issue we have is the jakes dont come on till the engine gets to about 1300 rpm when slowing down and down shifting. This seems a little low to me as when down shifting I go to the next lower gear at 1200 rpm. Has anyone else had this problem and how did you fix it? Is this just the Jakes being out of adjustment, a computer issue or a combination of the two?

What should a compression gauge read on a 1993 ch 613 mack with an e7 400?
-
I have a 2001 ch613 mack. The engine doesn't always turn off when you turn the key off the first time. I replaced the ignition switch but that didn't solve the problem. Does anyone have any ideas to point me in the right direction to fix the problem?

I have a 93 ch613, the washer pump doesn't work with the button. I used a power probe and the pump works and also swapped out the switch but it didn't change anything. Is there a separate fuse for the washer pump or is it something in the wiring? Any help would be appreciated.

I have a 1999 ch613 Mack with an e7 427 engine that keeps blowing the fuse for the ecu when I turn the key to the run position before I even start it. I'm sure it's a short somewhere, but I don't know where to start looking. Could anyone help me?

Mack rear main seal removal
mackrmodel686st replied to mackrmodel686st's topic in Engine and Transmission
Thanks again. I know about the install tool as I said, I've done the install a few times, just never pulled one without pulling the flywheel housing. -
Mack rear main seal removal
mackrmodel686st replied to mackrmodel686st's topic in Engine and Transmission
I'll give that a try. Thanks. -
I have a 1993 ch 613 mack with a 400 engine. I'm replacing the trans and noticed oil in the flywheel housing, pulled the flywheel and sure enough the rear main seal is leaking. How do i remove the old seal, I've replaced a few on the e7 engines, but was always replacing the flywheel housing also. How do i go about removing the old seal without pulling the flywheel housing off?

2001 Mack cx613 heater controls
mackrmodel686st replied to mackrmodel686st's topic in Electrical, Electronics and Lighting
The ch613's we have are the same way, but I think the cx613's are electric. -
I've got a 2001 cx613 Mack vision that doesn't switch between defrost, floor, dash and mix. I've replaced the controls but didn't fix the problem. I don't see any burnt or melted wiring. Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to fix this issue?
-
There are two switches, one for the headlights and markers, one for the clearance lights.
-
I've got a 2001 Mack cx613 that keeps burning out the headlight switch every few weeks. When it happens the headlights continue to work, but the tail lights, marker lights in the hood and center three clearance lights on the roof don't work. Also the dash lights go out too. I change the switch out and it works fine for a couple weeks, then the lights go out again. Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to cure this problem once and for all?

want to convert from air bag to camelback
mackrmodel686st replied to gio400's topic in Driveline and Suspension
Why would you want to do something so silly? A camel back suspension will add about 1000 pounds to your truck and make it ride rough as hell. -
You wouldn't happen to have any pictures of what you did.
-
It boils down to injectors, cam timing, bigger turbo, and computer programming. My boss had it done to one of our 350's and had it converted to a 427. It's expensive but can be done. It would almost be cheaper to find a used 427 and swap it out. Either way it's gonna cost you about 20 grand. As is, your truck has a good, reliable motor that will get decent fuel mileage, it's just gonna be a bit of a dog off the line, excuse the pun.
-
Based on my experience, an e7 is an e7, as In all the same. The 300, 350, 427, and 460 are horsepower ratings. They have different injectors, turbos, and cam timing. Oil coolers can be either the cast-iron barrel type or the flat tin type, will have different filter brackets depending but both will work. The manifolds are the same, so are the valve covers, oil pans, flywheel housings and flywheels.

All the e7 air clutches I've worked on at my shop need air to disengage the clutch and let the fan spin free. I have had one get stuck engaged even with shop air. I sprayed some pb blaster in the air fitting and around the clutch assembly and it freed up. Works fine now. Also check to make sure your air solenoid is working. The ones I deal with need 12v power to shut the air off and turn the fan on. I know it sounds backwards, but that how it works. Also, your computer may not be sending power to the solenoid, you can check that too.

I have a 1980 r model with mack axles and a camel hump suspension. I'm gonna be grafting the rear frame from a 1999 ch mack for the air ride suspension onto the r model. I also have the mack axles from a 1993 ch mack to go under the air ride. My question is, will the differentials from the 1980 mack axles work in the 1993 housings? The r model has a maxidyne engine with a maxitorque twin stick trans and don't want to change the axle ratios.
-
If it is a mack engine, it's most likely a 300 maxi-dyne. Was the most common engine they made back then. The company I work for has one, and used to have another one.

Rd speedo not working
mackrmodel686st replied to 90plow's topic in Modern Mack Truck General Discussion
The wires for the speedo sensor are on the back of the trans right by the yolk for the driveshaft.- 1 reply

Have you tried shifting without the clutch? Sometimes trucks get used to being driven a certain way. Don't ask me why this happens, but I've seen with new trucks they run just fine either way at first. But after a while of driving them one way or the other they won't run right if you try to drive it differently. Same goes for using starting fluid, if you use it to much, they won't start without it event when it's hot out.
-
I doubt its the jake as it doesnt function under 800 rpm or when you are on the throttle. The computer takes care of that for you. What rpm does your tach read when it does this. You could be hitting the Rev limiter.

They actually call the motor half a flywheel housing. Yes it's aluminum, been replaced with used ones on several occasions and been replaced with new at least once. As I said before, no motor issues, runs just fine. Plenty of power and no vibrations. Am currently replacing both the bell and flywheel housings. Mack doesn't make a steel flywheel housing, but we did find a steel bellhousing to replace the aluminum one. I don't think that is causing the problem because this has happened with two different trannys.the first one was a rockwell 10 speed, now has an eaton/fuller 10 speed. Both bolt up identical.
