I know.... God bless you... jojo

good call Onyx, Ive been in N.C. for 16 years, and I rarely ever need to pull out torches, and such, plus a million curse words.. I still anti-sieze every bolt that needs it... .. jojo
-
yes sir..... I believe it is a fuel delivery issue, and you make good sense.. I hope he doesnt load the parts cannon and fire it, however,, he seems to be diagnosing instead... jojo
-
ok.. I will look for you tomorrow...
-
I know... I'm from Maine... road salt kills everything.. may I suggest you spray them now with PB Blaster, and let them soak over night... any good pen. oil will do, then tomorrow use a 3/4" wrench and work them back and forth, with care... the lines are about $150.00 ea. only need to bleed 2 of them... pick 2 easy ones. ie: 2+5..... jojo
-
ok... now..... you opened the fuel lines at the head and bled off at least 2, right, like 'F' said, you pump the primer and pull on the line a little bit and bleed the air.. jojo
-
sorry, but I just want to be clear.... youre pump has the filter on it, right?
-
early E-Techs, But it is possible. In my experience it's the early ones... The one he has IMO was a better pump, just tricky to r+r the filter.. I welcome other opinions... jojo
-
I think we are posting too many possible issues. The truck ran , then it ran bad, now it wont start, is that correct?
-
Doesnt Bosch make the Mack pump? I know the primers are...
-
the last pump i bought for an ASET was $950.00 3-4 years ago...
-
i bet you have the fuel pump with the fuel filter on it? if so..... Bring a folding chair with you when you go to MackVo... you will need it... Sorry... Jojo
-
It is evil but, luckily all i had to do was remove the fuel hose at the primary filter inlet and tank then pull the tape out of the tank, then fish out the cardboard tube that was the middle of the roll..
-
could be.... many years ago I chased a problem with hard starting and rough running, and after a few days, I found electrical tape in the fuel line from the tank to the lift pump.. someone ( dissgruntaled Employee We thought) anyway there was a roll of electrical tape in the tank, once the glue dissolved, well....... now you have mile long snake... sad thought's but possible... keep in touch.. jojo
-
operating pressure is between 60-100 psi.. did you crack a line at the head and pump the primer till it leaks of, air will bubble out first.. then lock it back down, 2 lines will be enough to get it to fire...
-
its about time....
-
blown head gasket? no loose C.A.C. boot's?
-
it kick' a$$..
-
heck I have even spent hours looking at an issue, only to find a bad fuse or dirty fuse socket... it happens... like I have said before.... 'not an expert, just joey mack'...
-
the small's can really ruin you're day... jojo

Oh My God!!! There's a truck I wish I Know How To Work On... Awesome... Is it Canadian born?
-
one more idea, while you got the hood up, look at the wires coming out of the dist. box, and make sure they havent rubbed through on the edge of the square mounting bracket that it runs through or next to.. i have made that repair a fews times for a 'no-start' issue and such.. jojo
-
yes to checking the block grounds, battery, firewall ground breaker, ground posts behind the dash, left corner, and left of the fuse panel on the right.. the block ground goes to the frame behind the left steer tire. 15mm socket and wrench gets it off.. clean any heat shrink glue you see on the eyelets.. it can cause a weak ground by getting between each other... jojo
-
have you checked fuse #40 in the dist. box on the firewall to see if it's loose or dirty. here is something else I have posted before... take a good 12v battery, and ground it to the truck with jumper cables and come off the positive with a small wire and power up #40 with a small probe or whatever you have that wont damage the fuse socket, and crank the truck... In a few cases, this showed me that the starter was pulling too many volts, away from the ECM.. this is generally for a 'no-start' condition... I hope my rocket did'nt go too far into outer space here? jojo
