behind the cluster to the left is a 6mm bolt,,(10mm wrench) clean them, scrape off the heat shrink glue from the eyelts and throw the start washers away.. same approach at the fuse panel, right side in the cab,, then...... clean the big ground bolt on the engine block in front of the starter,,, (15/16" wrench) if it is loose,, you found the issue.. there is ground cable from that bolt to the frame straight off of it behind the steer tire.. clean the frame ground.. (15 mm wrench). on the firewall next to the starter relay is a black ground breaker..(13mm wrench) clean the ends,check for dry rot and cracks.. then the starter grounds..(3/4" wrench) I assume you checked the battery cabels.. If there is a fused link on the batts,, check it out.. (9/16" wrench) .. Keep in touch... Jojo

Loose ground's.... do you know where they are?? in the cab and outside the cab..

Thank you Hayseed... I looked at it.. I will let it lie for right now.. I'm glad it's not a scam.. I had too many in the last week, so I'm a little gun-shy.. Jojo 🍻

I assume there is an electric plug on the governor housing? It is a duetch plug.. they can develope loose connections, especially if they are not secured in the yoke that is bolted there

that sucks...

There has been more of them sent to me lately than ever.. Just another thning to be on top of.. I guess........ Jojo

I dont know that model, so I dont know the engine, howerver, if is an E-6,,, PAI has short and long shaft water pumps, you will have to swap the pulley. No biggie.. I have done 3,, E-6's in the last 18 months.. jojo

It seems to be the case lately.. I got a strange text from an Amazon Imposter today.. I do not have any current orders.. I got rid of it..

New fuel lines are always a good idea, however at around $135.00/ea. you are looking at around $850+.. So what I have done many times, ( with my customers permission to try it) is.... I use 320 Emory cloth in my finger tips and rotate the ball ends in my fingers until the groove is gone or nearly gone, then flush them out with brake clean. I follow the torque conditioning procedure, and I usually get them to seal good.. sometimes one or two want to stay bad, so I replace them. Not to take away from Onyx's correct statement.. Just offering a way to save a few buck's. Keep in touch.. jojo

it came from (admin@bigmacktrucks.com)... The 'B' in 'Big' was NOT capitolized... It sure tried to look good..

I get 'Downloads' from ,,,,, mypowermanuals.com..... Then I put them on 2 seperate cd's, and load a copy into my shop laptop..

Here is a picture of the E-Mail.. I didnt dare try to forward it to the thread..

I just got an E-Mail at home from BMT showing all of the messed up air fare spams.. I deleted it.. anyone else get one? jojo

I know that since the mid 90's, they came with 75w90 synth. However, like TJC said..... Jojo

Pull the fuel filters off after it shuts down and see if the fuel level is too low to get picked up . Another thought,,. If you pump the hand primer, (if it has one), does it stay running?

Thats great!! Keep in touch... jojo

pull the center panel and inspect the condition of the plug on the switch..

Amen!! Mr. Paul...

I was just thinking,,,,. Isn't that one of those. G.O.A.L. moments? Anyway, still a funny video..

Anyone know where I can get a good deal on airfare??

You may be right Mark.. maybe it was a rust bucket and they were just making a video for fun. It sure did tear apart easy.. 😉

I'm still amazed that the little yellow pole was strong enough to rip the tandems out.. Hmmm?? Anyway, still a kickbutt video.. jojo

My wife IS TOUGH.. she's been in the 'Big Seat' from '86 til.. 2021.. Not counting being a school bus driver,, (God bless her).. When she was spouting about that video, I just walked away..

Hi, I'm jojo's wife and he just showed me this video!!!!!!! WTF!! How Can Anyone With CDL'S Drive like THAT!!!!! I Need To Become A Trainer!!!! No-One would Graduate!!!!!😉🥵🤠

I'm glad mackpro posted the new torque info.. disregard my posting, of the picture of the torque pattern, My book is ten years old..
