  1. the EGR valve may be bad, but it's been 2 weeks, and I believe my parts quote scared him away. my guess is they will hire a kid to do the wire harness, and when it gets to the point were the injector wires, and cam sensors need to plugged in, they will call me.. of course it will cost more because I will re-do the work. who knows. i may just stay away from it... jojo
  2. easy to see...cam sensor is at the right front near the breather. held in with an 8mm bolt. short harness, secured on the edge of the timing cover.... the crank sensor is at 8 o'clock on the flywheel housing... the cam sensor may have a teardrop shim behind it. just for kicks, take it out and put it in youre pocket.. put the sensor back in, then crank the engine and see if it runs better..

    Etech 400

    I worked in 3 Mack Dealer shop's and a couple private co's and 2 bigger co's that were 75% + Macks... so when the boss's saw that I could do the job's and didn't 'bitch' well..... guess who got the engine job's... no biggie, just my path.. I still want to learn more about the one's I know. Hell in a couple of the shop's I got all the tranny build's and rear end's too... ok, I'm rambling again... jojo

    Etech 400

    I also learned from true Mack old timer's, that Mack farmed out parts for the E-tech to Bosch, and they made crappy lifters, and the fuel pump was nothing to write home about.. for example.. I really welcome other opinion's on my statement's.. but really.... to me.... it's the best alternative to have a 'million mile engine' if you don't have an E-6 or E-7... a bit about me... I did my first cam job in 2000, on an E-Tech... i have only done about 40 of them since, so I'm not really an expert... just Joey mack..
  6. For sure, HAYSEED.... Make PawPaw proud.... He's watchin.. jojo

    Etech 400

    Early E-tech's were the ones, from what I learned, the brass spindle that the roller, spun on, would flat spot and stopthe roller and then the firestorm starts.. I have seen 'flaked' rollers, pitted rollers, and flatened rollers down the the yoke on the lifter, cutting into the lifter, and still running, terrible of course... did I answer youre question? jojo
  8. no need to go with an E-9..... The E-7 will do a damn good job. and the CH is not built for that 3200 Lb. engine... Of course, torches, a good welder, patience, and lot's of money can make it happen.... ..jojo
  9. well the bottom of the compressor has ports for the oil to drain back into the pan... Sounds feasible.. jojo

    I believe you are correct 'sir'.... I call it Ceramic Cam Roller Sh1t...jojo Looking back..... I agree with 'V' the early E-Tech wasn't that bad. certainly better than the ASET CEGR..... jojo
  11. I think you can access "E-Media" from there..

  13. Just for kick's.... look at the cam sensor plug and socket (eng. position sensor) Do the same for the crank sensor (R.P.M./ T.D.C. sensor) look for fraying of the wires where it goes into the plug. The R.P.M. sensor may have a 3 pin plug with only 2 wires.. you can also, un-plug one of them and try to start the engine, it will crank for a few seconds before starting, and will run rough when it starts. then plug it back in and un-plug the other sensor, and crank it up. if it does not start, the sensor that Is plugged in is bad. These engines can run on either one but uses both to balance it out.. Just one of my "off the wall" test's.. Let us know how it goes... jojo
  14. is it the music stereo? if so .... expose all of the wires and record the color's and tracer's and look for a Vulva stereo/with the harness, and 'relate' the wires to the color code.... or am I just talkin out my a$$ ? jojo oh yeah then use PTT to tell the truck it has a new stereo...
  15. I DO understand what you just said... Jojo
  16. M.C. I wish I knew what you know... seems to me you have 'Been places' Yes, we are China, for about 40 years or so... I'm just trying to put this puzzle together, because I don't know why American's would want to destroy America... I'm naive. in part because I have never traveled the world and learned other cultures... jojo
  17. my first thought is worn piston rings... how does it run? is it shaking?
  18. well that was 11 + minutes of a bunch of s#!t that Iv'e been watching over the last 2 years... It was like watching a cheesey sci-fi movie. it is familiar.. China has worked very hard to kill us, with Microbials... Joe Biden's Klan, is going to let happen.... WHY??? jojo
  19. yep... that makes sense too.. they are putting half of it in us and the other half will be airborne.. It's a 2 part killer... jojo
  20. Well it happened again.. Another "Variant" Really??? What's gonna happen is the Dem's and China will wait until We are all fed-up and just live the normal way, like we did 2 years ago, and then they will release the 'Real' killer Virus.... Our Gov. and China's Gov. are working on a plan to Cleanse the earth.. I know I sound like a 'nut-case' but I don't trust them... wonder why the Wuhan lab. is still standing? I'm sorry, I'm losin it... 🥺 jojo
  21. Yes 'F' I agree. Thank You.. jojo
  22. thats what it looks like to me.. i think the $2500.00 parts list i gave him scared him off.. his ccv is bad too. thanks for popping in.. jojo
  23. after I saw this and thought about it.. I started thinking.... CRD (carrier rear dual) and CRS (carrier rear single).... Just me not knowing, but now, curious... I don't mind not 'knowing' however, learning is always A (+)... jojo
  24. Kid Rock's language is very strong and vulgar, but.... it's the truth... jojo
