    Hey Ricky, If you dont find screen that you like... You could buy a sheet of fireplace spark screen for about $55.00, and cut it to fit.. Just search it on the web, "fireplace spark screen sheets"... I already looked, it's out there.. jojo

    Tell you what.. on the front of the engine, above the over board breather, is a 1/4 npt. Plug.. it takes a 1/4 drive ratchet extension to remove it.. you can hook to it,. There is also 2 other ports directly behind the block, right in line with the EUP's.. you can use one of them. Then you can put the regulator back in the normal way.. if you remove any of those plugs, be sure to dry it off and dope it really good, and put it in tight..

    When the weather is better, I have to replace my GasPack and my water heater.. Then all of my appliances and electrical will be 5 years old or less..

    Before the regulator, this way the fuel is held back by the regulator, so the gauge will read correctly..

    I did my time in the late 80's.. a few bucks more per hour, and usage of the lift as well . I had a beat up 69 Camaro back then.. Ahhh,,,, the good old days..

    As long as it is between the lift pump and the regulator, your good.. there are a couple other ports you can use, but this is a clear depiction of one that works.. jojo

    ok.. I was hoping it was already plumbed and you were making it new.. I havent done enough of them to describe the procedure without the instructions or air line diagram.. I'm sorry, Ricky..
  12. Joey Mack
    Yeah, probably... with a sewing needle, you can tighten them up.. this is a picture 8-9 code, from my V-Mac book..

    are you saying you probed the eecu ends with something larger than a small paper clip? Most folks dont have back up probe kits, so the smallest paper clip in the office will work.. Do you have the pin I.D. for the eecu connectors? it is printed on the wire also. It will tell you where to go, from one end to the other..
  14. Joey Mack
    yes, I wish I had a picture of my set-up.. I answer this question every month or so... jojo

    are you adding a red button to the dash? or is one already there?

    Yes I remember.. I was one of them when I was in High School... Frank's Garage, in Gray Maine.. Right in the center of town..

    Well, all I know is, I love racist and sexist food.. Marinated 'White' meat Breasts taste great!! Especially when they are covered in a hand made 'Rub'.. just say'in....

    I like the Gavin Newsome one.. Its correct..
  20. Joey Mack
    Well now we know it's not Mack Rears😉

    Ok.. that makes sense. Open the hood and look under the cab. You will see a dozen air lines going to the treadle valve and such.

    The gray wires in the truck are the grounds.. have a look at those.. on the firewall is a 'pass through' check it out.. Good luck . The other 2 guys that posted comments are Brilliant,. You are in good hands.. jojo

    If you clean the smooth curved area next to the input, on the front right, you will expose all the info and part numbers about the carrier . Using the VIN can work, as long as the rears are original. The stamping will likely be a bunch of dots punched into the housing to spell out letters and numbers.. (Mack Rears)..

    It is directly under the brake pedal. It is hard to get to without pulling the floor pan. What is the issue? Jojo
  25. Joey Mack
    Good point Glenn.. I re-built (3) 3179DF John Deere engines last year. They were used in job site water trucks. They too, were a diesel power plant that could be used in many ways.. jojo
