  1. Aint it a damn shame?? Now cooking on a gas stove is bad.. Next,,,, they will say it is 'Racist' because gas lines are in low income and primarily Black and Brown neighborhoods.. Mark my word's... jojo
  2. Is there a loose heat shield on the exhaust? Is the floor pan around the shifter loose? Day cab or Sleeper truck?
  3. yes they are, but the threads on them SUCK, and may only get a couple uses out of one,,, but still a good idea, especialy in a pinch..
  4. Masterwelder,,,,, You may be on to something that will help a boat load of guys here... Awesome !!!
  5. RW's are my favorite.. I was able to drive a couple of them in the last 2 years. An E-9 powered dump truck and a couple E-6 powered ones.. Too bad neither one was mine.
  6. Well the Classified document 'thing' is tilting a bit to the left.. Lets see how long the list of excuses and denials will be.. I bet K.J.P. flips her lid during questioning..
  7. You may have a point there, Onyx...
  8. My guess is a combo of good meds on the outside, and good Booze to sterilize from the inside.. I know it works for me..
  9. You will need to remove the dog house to get to it.. Have you ever pulled that steel panel out? Just curious,, jojo
  10. I just looked back.. Onyx said EGR on DD came in 2003.. heck, I would think I'd remember that...
  11. I was kinda thinking like you 67,,. Im no DD guru either, but I sure have worked on a lot of them from the 90's to 2007.. anyway, I will follow this one and hope to learn something.. 🍻
  12. Is the air compressor new? If not....... Well....
  13. I bet the steel supply pipe coming off the air compressor is restricted by carbon build up.. Jojo
  14. Actually, I like fruit cake.. I will cut a slice and toast it in a pan with butter.. it's decent..
  15. How did the sleeper compare to a Century/Columbia 120? I has a '99 century and I loved it.. even though it was a plastic truck..
  16. Thanks Onyx.. I have worked on a lot of 12.7's and 14.0's.. I just dont remember EGR on a 12.7.. The 14.0's I worked on were '05 and later.. They had EGR's.. The series 60 is one engine that I wish I had learned to build.. I would 'Tool-up' for that one... Lot's of them still in service here.. Hopefully gio400 will come back with all the truck info and a few pic's... jojo
  17. The thing is, I made the call.. I called the number in the message.. It answered as Well Fargo Fraud Dept.. I was so concerned that I went through the phone call quickly.. I messed up.. I just hope they dont use my info for other activities.. I am dissapointed with myself.. I always pride myself on seeing this crap before hand.. I hope that others read this and all of the comments from "The Pound" and dont make my mistake.. Thanks to all of you... Jojo
  18. Yep, however, i dont recall seeing an EGR on a 12.7.. (of course I aint seen them all) I have also replaced intake gaskets, and C.A.C.'s, and on occasion, a turbo base gasket.. I like the 12.7.. I put it right up there with the E-7 Mechanical.. jojo
  19. It can work, but it is not as flexible, so directing it around corners or bending may be a small challenge.. I doubt it is passing through a narrow area where the larger diameter is a concern.. jojo
  20. yes its an oil line.. #4 braided line and some buildable fittings, and you can make the hose yourself, and repair it if something damages it in the future.. but you can also take it to a hose shop and get one made. I recommend braided line either way.. jojo
  21. Did it show the procedure to set the run-out on the flywheel housing? I wish I was smarter about E-6's.. I think the seal housing is seperate from the flywheel housing. Which may make it easier to install the new style rear mains.. then you can install the seal housing..... I was wondering if you should check run-out on the flywheel housing first while the crank hub is out in the open, then do the rear main seal.. I wonder what the Dog Pound thinks about that?? jojo
  22. Yes sir Mech. it sure is a lot of money for the tool, if you may not use it again.. The advantage of the tool, is that it can install a wear ring as well as the seal, and set it to the proper depth.. if a wear ring is not needed, I would say you could make a tool to set the seal in nice and straight.. Jojo
  23. Here is some info on the seal installer.. I have several tools from this company.. Monaco tools.com,,, tool #50112-A.... $595.00.
