Back in the Mack Pack!
mechohaulic replied to BOBWhite's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
I'm here racking my brain cells trying to remember CORRECTLY the proper system. yes I was involved when systems were brand new ;; which also means the long range problems didn't show up yet. the air filter was a two section set up . tip turbine air came from ??? oil bath with 2 in wire screen removal able prescreen ;; didn't change that many tip turbines due to blade failure . -
BMT Challenge Coin #4 Is Available To Order!!
mechohaulic replied to Barry's topic in Product Announcements & Group Buys
model of your choice;;; SIR! the more the merrier. fortunately Mack has enough different models to keep the series going.one of the best parts of these coins is you can't put them on the spokes of a bicycle like we did as kids not knowing we were destroying a baseball card worth thousands of dollars today, LOL, build a set of coins today will be the best present to our great grand children in years to come. -

THANK YOU for that picture. the Man and His machine. could share a drink and dam near shed a tear for the memories and stories related to Mr Moffo and his fleet. from a midnite "road call" while at Mack and Mr Moffo was a waterbury Police officer for a lady in distress to a water wagon pete broke on road side which repair (at no charge ) didn't need a computer or wrecker to repair. the good days gone by (forever)sadly. -
I have found that "following our hearts" and later the "regrets "came when the sentence ended with I DO.

or it shows there are people out there having money and time to sort and e-bay to triple their profit.

3rd lot of interest was the Mack wall clock; 1 outbid it went for $75'oo I had the bid on 399 which i didn't wait to watch figuring the numbers would be high-- wrong again. checked back after only to see it went for $150.oo. all the early Mack bulldog magazines from 30's-40's . 1 -by then everyone money ran out; 2 no one knew what they were. they were the first version of what became the bulldog magazine yrs later. those magazine would have been full of info.

It's not mine to pass judgment; right or wrong :: agree or disagree . old man like myself, never had to deal with these issues. had an older cousin to which everyone knew was gay. attended family functions with his partner. no one condemned . treat them same as others. guess I'd rather see the rainbow flags waving then a group going down the street waving(shooting) AR 15's.

don't think that's the picture I had in my mind growing up when some one went "bareback riding."
-
have been monitoring the auction ; there are some people out there with one heck of a lot of money. lot 62 =Mack literature went for $800.oo not counting premium !!!
-
sure glad people like yourself are out there bringing old people like myself up to date. I forgot about the no injection pump/ mechanical pedal linkage. still don't see a need for lower then 850 jake. around here all you hear are the big pete/kw triaxles using the jake for shifting/making noise then actual slow down. like the 4 wheel tin cans with the ying ying mufflers.
-
starting now 10:30 winter associates Plainville CT . large lots of truck/auto related literature. I'm outbid on two Mack lots.
-
my question is ;; why would you want the jake on lower then 850 eng RPM's ?? stall time ??
-
old school jakes (I installed many) weren't wired into a computer as today's iron. I'd bet you can't; unless some one chimes in with more knowledge of the computer system : definitely not me.
