Good afternoon just wanna give little more update on my Mack Ive work the truck for days pull my 38000 lb excavator few days and no problem at all im picking up oil and filters for it next week and will get cat to do a oil sample I’m not sure what fix what or what exactly happened for it to blow the oil out but it’s not doing it now I’m still getting my money together for that engine Thank you guys

I have no real idea when the compressor went out it blow water out the recovery tank and truck ran hot cut off I clean the blow by filter which was full of oil moisture slug cleaned it out with carb cleaner and gas maybe that’s what was causing it to build up pressure to push the oil out of the little breather vent on the filter housing I’m not sure but I checked the filter again after it worked all day and no slug or moisture in the system now and no water in oil hopefully it continues to work til I can get some money together

Good evening guys little update on my dump truck worked it today 9 hrs no problem so far but I’m going to keep a eye on things I’m going to do a oil change new fuel and air filter as well so hopefully this old dog will keep hauling til I can get things together Thank you all for your help

Ok guys little update I cracked the blow by filter housing taking it off to clean had slug in it cleaned with carb cleaner and gas checked spinner filter no problem nothing in there put it back together with the crack housing just to see if it’s going to blow oil out the spinner breather drive it hauled 3 loads and no oil blowing out had oil from the crack housing but not much got a new housing ordered should be here tomorrow will replace cracked housing check oil and water drain all tanks and take her for a haul praying it goes well will report back Joey I’m going to get my cash together and come see you on that motor this old dog has been good to me and I just replace the rear stand and all few months ago truck has service me well so It’s worth a engine Thanks guys will let you know soon as I get the housing on and worked

With the water I think it all came from when compressor went out haven’t seen any since but haven’t drove it a lot cause don’t want to mess it up any worst

Please post pic if you don’t mind I haven’t had time to check it out much just pull the blow by filter it was full of slug not there before but oil is fine no water thanks

Still no sign of water in the oil even after driving it with 22tons on its back but blowed about 1.5 gal oil out Blow by filter was full of slug wasn’t there before when I changed the oil few months ago plan to pull pan and check like Joey had mentioned thanks guys

Pm me some information on it Thank you

So my engine is pretty much shot need a in frame

Ok guys I’m in need of more help replaced the air compressor new from Mack clean all lines with air and changed filter put the truck back to work this morning it’s pushing oil out the breather on the spinner housing never had this problem before oil pressure was normal around 25/30 hot idle and 50/55 driving still has same pressure am I doomed here or am I over looking something that needs cleaning I’m going to pull the blow by filter clean and check it once it cools down Thank you

I totally understand that and appreciate your help and all the others as well

I appreciate the help you still working on these old dogs 👁️👁️ I’d like to get some bearing rolled in and a overhead tan on the old dog i replaced the rear stand several months back and I’d like to keep the old dog healthy if so let me know I’ll drive it out once I get the air compressor on and done Thank you

Yes I have a new filter to go in it I plan to pull the lines blow them out with shop air I appreciate all the help got it ordered today from Mack pick up in the am

Good evening today my driver was hauling asphalt (dump truck) and suddenly temp went up truck shut off he gets out check under the hood Fires it back up and the air compressor is pushing water out the side and through the over flow (reservoir) tank I’m hoping that it’s just the compressor and nothing internal any help or guidance will truly be appreciated 21 yrs in trucking and I’ve never had this kinda issue but anyway to get the load off we open the valve for the water to flow through the heater core and left the cap loose so the pressure wouldn’t build got the load off and truck home temp was about 180 drain tanks water and dripping out the air compressor none in oil so am I correct on air compressor and if so does this have to be timed like injection pumps Again Thank you 🙏🏽

I’ll check with them tomorrow that’s where I got my new trunnion and stand from that I’m putting in
