    Hi guys, where is the show in Lititz , directions from pa turnpike coming from jersey , are their any fire trucks at the show?
  5. 609albert
    thanks for reply, their is no vaccum unit , the transfer valve is manually operated, the control rod goes through the pump panel to 2 gears that rotate a diverter inside the pump casting , you can only move the knob a half turn , have another mack and the knob goes 3.5 turns to complete the operation of pressure to volumn or visa/versa. thanks, AL

    could you get me the part numbers from napa for the bleeders ? thanks

    thanks for the info,looks like that is what I'm going to have to do, I actually broke off the bleeder fitting that screwed into the cyl, these old trucks are nice but seems like ever part you fix it leads into another repair , this all started with replacing 1 brake line that was rusted through, then replaced 2 others , then the bleeding air from system broke the bleeder valve , and each wheel has 2 cyl's and none of the bleeders look good . thanks AL
