Anyone tried this 3 leave setup on a 38k camelback?
Joey Mack replied to Bill 88 R 688 ST's topic in Driveline and Suspension
Hmm? I have not seen those before... I am curious. I know what TRUE Camelbacks can do, but I am interested to know how well they do in the hard working world of a MACK TRUCK... I have no knowledge to offer, so I guess I'm sittin on the bleachers with a beer in my hand. jojo -
Yep.. Well this is how a Po Folk, fixes his shop up.. I cant afford a truck and a finisher, so..... I guess its on me.. 53 60# bags today.. going to get 56 more tomorrow, to do the other half..

38K Camel back leafs fanning out
Joey Mack replied to Bill 88 R 688 ST's topic in Driveline and Suspension
You can replace the u-bolts with the trunnion mounted.. this suspension is hard work but doesn't require any special knowledge.. any smart mechanic can repair this suspension.. Torqueing the u-bolts is where the real hard work is if you dont have a hydraulic torque tool.. -
I like the shop... That is great... jojo

ATRO has a bolster kit that includes all the box bolts/ washers/nuts and ''Twinkies''.. it is a lot cheaper than Mack's kit, which you have to order seperately. -

Mech Buddy.... I bet you have forgotten more than what many guys know... OK...I sidetracked this thread too... -

Sorry Han's.. I think they are called spring isolators, or something like that.. The crazy thing is.... I have done dozens of camel back repair's, and I cant tell you the real name, only the shop name.. -
2002 Mack CH613 A/C issues
Joey Mack replied to Jomorisn's topic in Electrical, Electronics and Lighting
Has the A/C system been recharged recently? Check the condition of the binary switch in the reciever dryer bottle, as well as the wires. Does the APADS show any codes? The wire on the radiator??? is it connected to a fan control valve? a brass valve about 5/8'' diameter, and 3'' long? -

🍻 Now when it gets put back together, make sure you put a set of ''Twinkies'' in the lower boxes, on the ends of the springs.. Glad to hear you are getting it fixed.. jojo -
🍻... I wish I could do more for you.. jojo

The sticker part number is usually printed in the bottom corner. Is it not there any more?

Mech.. I do take my hat off to Mack for this.. '98ish to 2006, all the wires are white, black is a ground,,, yellow and green twisted pairs are Comm. line for the ECU's (1939 lines)... So when you read a wire, lets say under the hood.. You will see something like EJ-1 42 .. it means that the wire circuit is through the Engine computer. It would the J-1 plug,,, pin 42,,, there are a couple other numbers that will tell wire size and ''intersection'' for lack of a better word.. I should probably go to the book to refresh my memory.. but the point is, for basic wire tracing, Mack did a good job..

Air leaking out of gear shift knob 99 CH613
Joey Mack replied to Old Man's topic in Engine and Transmission
That is great news.. can you post the solution for others to see, in case someone comes along with the same issue? Awesome...... -
Peel the wire loom on the speed sensor back and read the numbers.. you should see something like,,,. VJ 2 , 14, .05. That is the wire code. V= vecu plug, J2 would be the plug number, 14= pin number.. then go to the dash wires and look for that code. Then you have found the wires related to the speed sensor. Also go to the VECU, to check wire condition.. (The wire code) i gave you is a sample, not the actual numbers.. I still think it's a bad ground.. keep in touch.. Jojo

Dash wiring grounds.... Check the grounds.. it sounds like a back feed through the dash lights..

I bet you are right Mark T..

How about this?? You just put new oil in it,, and pressure is good now... Run the truck and keep your eyes on it... Then get back to us.. All of us who are mechanics/ owners, know that this is a challenge.. Just keep in touch, and post all of what you did, and what the truck did.. with respect, Jojo

It's a great Picture... I love it Tom.. jojo
-
With the truck running,,, have you tried to wiggle the acc. relay wires and the key switch and any other wires related to starting the truck.. ? for some reason I am leaning towards a weak wire connection.. Of course. looking at the fuel delivery side is very important as well.. Did you say it ''just shuts off'' -or- does it ''die slow''?
-
so what did you do before this oil change? did you flush out the sensors? I am still concerned about the Halo test.. Did you send an oil sample out for analysis?
