If I remember right, you can set the gov. to 'all speed' and you can set pedal spd. and cruise spd. to about 75 mph.. as far as 400 RPM range. I guess because i was driving an 18 spd.. I set the range... I wish I was still driving today, in the trucks that are being fussed at.. I feel like I will learn something.. Back in my driving time, it was about getting the dirt to the job site. anyway,,, I know less and less everyday...

man,, sending it to the crusher sucks,, Maybe pull the engine, tranny and rears, then .... hell I dont know.. I just hate seeing old timers get scrapped.. I bet I f i still lived in O.O.B. I would buy it and part it out... I hope you find a good home for that 'puppy' jojo

Seems to me, Super dollar is a good place to go shopping..

Thanks for sharing... Yes those switches are a common cause for what happened to your truck.. jojo -
you dodged a bullet there.... jojo

I worked on a few of them many years ago.. the bottom counter shaft has splines in it,, the other 2 do not, so when building the tranny you just need to put the #3 shaft in the bottom.. jojo

Holy crap.... When did this happen

No fun at all.. both my legs burn all day and night.. I'm almost able to walk without a cane.. I just finished my second, 100 pack of 3x4 bandages, and about 40 rolls of guaze. 12ft./ Roll.. Amazon ships over night.. :).

For sure, Mech.. I'm laid up because of my foolish mistake . But, we lived through it.. hope this is the last one.. this sh,,t hurts 🤕...

Is that a gear reduction setup? I don't recall that style. Heck, I thought with the 107's you could put the aux in neutral, and select a gear in the main, for different pto speeds.. damn I'm rusty...

Cleaning air tank
Joey Mack replied to skydawg's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
i was only thinking about the oil that is in the tank.. low pressure, allows the sludge to settle rather than stir it up.. and yes draining tanks is a thing of the past for some reason,,, hell I was trained to pull air tank cables and let a little fuel out of the fuel water seperator, check oil, and wash windows and mirrors, while in the fuel island, and too pull the cables at the end of the day to drain the junk out and re-set the unloader valves.. I cant tell you how many truck owners/drivers I had to explain that too... and i'm no genius....jojo -

Cleaning air tank
Joey Mack replied to skydawg's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
Yea, you can let it drain... any chance you have a bore scope that you can put in one of the ports just to see inside,, I mean, if you have a real concern... other wise, you can just hook shop air to the tank, dial it down to about 20 PSI, and crack the drain valve and wait till it stops pushing the goop out.. dirtymilkman is likely right about this.. jojo -
have you looked at 'Auto Mann' ? jojo

Mackpro is right.. you may be able to rotate it back and forth quickly with the side of your hand, and see if it cleans the contacts..

96 CH613 engine shuts down.
Joey Mack replied to jtpfarm's topic in Electrical, Electronics and Lighting
Like I said.... It is something simple.. these systems are good.. most times it's a relay, or poor connection.. I'm glad it is fixed.. I figured it was a relay... Jojo -
I'm glad that my suggestion is working for you.. It aint a rig job, it's gettin the job done.. Starter buttons dont require a computer to give it permission to work... keep in touch, there are many really smart guys here that will help you, with ease... Jojo

yep, typically, you have to have a 13 or 18 spd. tranny, and 200 series carriers... if it is a Mack drive line. The 400 is a great setup. I drove a few of them in a construction environment, 22 years ago, and that RD tractor had an 18 speed tranny, and it would out pull the newer (at the time) 427's.. Maybe set the governor setting to all speed to improve throttle response... jojo
-
I would expect it to be much better.. you went from a 10 spd. controlled by a computer, to a 13 spd. controlled by you... Perfect.... jojo

good deal...
