12MS/14MS..???
-
Is the part number on the EECU still readable? The base program in an EECU will let it run..
-
Just install the pump with a new gasket, no timing needed..
-
I understand the stress... Trust me!! I have had to build many engines, and I know what it costs, and the anticipation that the truck owner has.. Good job!!.. You came to the right web site... We are a great team of guy's that offer our knowledge freely.. Stay in touch... Jojo
-
any chance you have a video of the leak in the fuel pump?
-
Hell yeah,,, now dig deep... That pump was $900.00 a few years ago and out of stock.
-
I'm grabbing at straws.. This one is hard for me, without being there.. I'm sorry.. I would ask if there is an adverse condition on the road/terrain, that may be causing an issue, also, did you ever have speed sensor codes.. I know you said no stored codes, but didnt say when they were cleared last.. Keep us posted,, jojo
-
Check the front engine mounts under the stantion. See if the rubber has disintegrated. Also look behind the balancer to see if the 18mm bolts are loose. I doubt they are, but...
-
Since you have the pump off. Leave the filter on it tight, and put an air tool nipple in the inlet of the pump, and plug the other end, and pressurize the pump with 70psi. And see if it leaks around the shaft seal.. please wear a face shield when doing this.. jojo
-
Coolant shutdown, is delayed, I figured because it flashes the mil light. For some reason, I can't really think of a cause for this yet.. front cover flexis a good thought.
-
Is this an Australian spec. Truck? Just curious.. do you have stored codes. Any codes for the throttle pedal? I'm at a loss right now, sorry...
-
Is this in a CH/CX?
-
Low coolant, off the sensor when facing up hill?
-
200 kpa converts to 29 PSI.. that's pretty good.. I don't recall a boost sensor on that engine, or a waste gate turbo.. what else was done to the engine recently.
-
Did the code go away?
-
Grease for CV713 Front Axle / Repair ?

The post is 10 years old.. I suggest starting one of your own. Add the year and model. Many guys will see it better.. -
I totaly understand your statement about working it, rather than working on it... AMEN...

Turbo 673
Joey Mack replied to wingman's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Thats pretty cool.. I noticed the rear stand is narrow, and yet the engine ran smooth enough to not tip over, Impressive.. I have an E-Tech in my shop right now, but hope to finish the E-6 later this year.. -

Bob, My thought's on what you said is this.. All of you old timers, and guys like me that have knowledge, have knowledge about Pre-Volvo Macks.. There are a lot of topics about MP engines and M-Drive tranny's and electronic's issues.. Most of us are Mechanical guys, and may get lost about the Volvo Infection that happened to MACK. I know I do, and I worked on these POS's for 5 years... I am happy to lose all of the knowledge I have gained on MP's.. anyway.. I will stop here... I'm good at sidetracking... jojo

The main box is not synchronized, the back box is.. its a 9 spd. box with a 2 spd. splitter, 'if you will'.. your biggest ''Girly Dick'' fan... Jojo
-
Paul,, I was taught to double clutch, and I'm pretty good at it.. I take a lot of crap because I double clutch.. I dont care.. anyway, Mack trannys are not as smooth as Eaton's. The splitter doesnt require double clutching, just flip the button and, off + on with the throttle, and away you go.. Since I am not a full time driver with decades of full time driving, I reluctantly make comments on how to shift.. As a Mechanic for decades, I have opinions, I have seen a lot of chewed of trannys and drivelines.. I am quite sure you will drive this tranny like a pro.. I hope im still 'on-track'
