FA505 kingpins

yes, FJH makes a good point,, this Is why I was stressing the need to check the small air filter.. I have solved low power complaints many times with a fresh filter..
-
VGT operation.. here is a link to a codes list.. Mack Truck VMACIII 1998 Fault Codes List - Truckmanualshub.com.url
-
air pressure needs to be above 90 PSI..
-
no video
-
there is a lot of soot on the VGT actuator..
-
Buddy,,, I/We totaly understand, actually I feel safe speaking for the other guys on this.. You are doing just fine.. I wish I had a truck here to take a picture and text it to you.. Take a break and grab a beer,.. Jojo

FJH?/ I wonder if he can remove the VGT air cylider and lock the turbo vanes in the open position, then just watch the boost gauge. also woder if there is a 35 PSI relief valve that can be screwed into the intake manifold to act as a waste gate??
-
did you lay under the driver side and look up to see the filter and controller? it is low on the engine, right in front of the starter..
-
Its probably covered in dirt and oil .
-
Oil, possible, check the air filter on the VGT controller. Have you located it yet?
-
The VGT is the type of turbo you have, the air valve on the driver side is the controller, there is a small ECU on the back side of the EECU that controlls the VGT. There is a small spin in air filter at the valve, it needs annual replacement..
-
the Mack door tag is perfect.. any chance you have a clear picture of it?

Dammit Man !!

FA505 kingpins

did you measure the length of the new pin and the overall length of the steering knuckle's king pin boss'? are they the same? i'm just curious.. Matt makes a good point as well.. -
AI is altogether different than the AC turbo
-
I dont know about different turbos. I have only replaced parts with OEM parts.
-
Its all good, i always appreciate your knowledge..
-
Sorry bud, i really thought it was called a ring nozzle..
-
FJH,, do you think the ring nozzle is sooted up?
-
I have never worked on a deleted ASET-C engine.. I wonder how it could run right wth the 2 sensors in the EGR crossover pipe, not giving correct readings? also, change the small air filter at the VGT acuator.. and check air pressure going to the VGT...
-
How about some pictures of what you have??
-
that part number is a Volvo number.. do you have the panel? I think the part number is cast into the plastic panel.. I know I have bought them in recent years.. I'm curious... Jojo

Happy Birthday Fuzzy... Jojo

is that a coolant leak?
