  1. Good luck Rickey... I'm glad you are interested in the proper maintenance of youre truck.. I'm out.. jojo
  2. if there is no hose attached. its a stand alone restriction gauge.. if there is a bit of red showing, press and hold the yellow button on top and see if it resets. if it does, its probably good to go.. check the air filter anyway... jojo
  3. The coolant filter can be changed once every 2 years if you dont check the Ph.. there are test strips for this, but if the truck is a fleet truck, no telling what driver put what amount of water in it... so , based on application, would determine testing the Ph. of course you could always change the filter annually. you decide how to do it.. if you are the only one managing the fleet then you know the use and abuse of your units... just saying... jojo
  4. I see I still cant type good.... gas here is $4.19/ gal. sorry
  5. Yep, I'm about to piss mine off too,, She is sleeping in, right now, but when she wakes up and see's the heavy rain outside, she will get pissed off at me.. oh well, at least I have you guy's... jojo
  6. gotcha' It's good now.. so gas in my town WAS $4.79 and diesel WAS $5.09 yesterday,. when I go to the parts house in a bit I will look at todays new price.. jojo
  7. PAI, is still making these parts.. The shop I use locally, rebuilds tranny's and rear's with PAI parts.. I think Eaton parts are still available as well.. But I know that the Mack's are built with PAI.. I have had 4 done in the last year. jojo
  8. sorry Bob, not sure what happened to your post,, I assume you wrote something to go along with what you copied.. jojo
  9. Gas went up $2.10/ gallon. in 16 month's, and it's not done rising.. and now the new "Excuse" is Putin... I still can't believe that 38% of the U.S. approves of our King.. They must be the ones that ride the bus for free to get there free food with a debit card thats funded by us,, the 'Workers' .... Dang'it... I forgot,, I have to got to work.. I better get going, hate to make less tax dollars today because I'm late to work... jojo
  10. too me,,,, its easy to miss it, especially when I 'scroll' quickly... so what do you think the issue is? jojo
  11. good job Onyx... Looks clear to me..
  12. sad but true... TJC, we barely get 10% of our oil from Russia.. I guess he thinks we can go 'all electric' by flipping a switch.. I will never understand the thinking, or lack there of,, by this administration.. I dont know..... jojo
  13. I guess I should have been clearer... Im not talking about the ones that look like a belt... mine are steel,,, jojo
  14. the strap wrenches I have are 3+inches wide and they dont crush the filter like the 1" wide wrenches.. K-D tools makes the ones I have.. NAPA sells them jojo
  15. heres an idea... go to NAPA have them pull a 1791 filter, so they can pick the correct wrench for it... i think its 4 and 1/8" -4 and 3/8" they can show you... I suggest getting the metal strap wrench that takes a 1/2" drive ratchet.. jojo
  16. I thought the truck was an '06 CX ?
  17. Yep, I just heard 'right now' on the news that these high prices are also a result of petro companies trying to recuperate recent losses,,, so does that mean their operating cost's didnt go up much, but ours do ??? jojo
  18. I remember being a young'n back then, waiting in the back seat of our Plymouth Duster, on 'Odd' gas day because our plate was an 'Odd' number.... jojo
  19. I try Mackey,,, I know sometimes we dissagree, However, I always read your posts, and I respect you.. I like agreeing better....jojo
  20. if it doesnt do it in 5th,, highly likely its in the back box. synchro sliding clutch may have diamond shaped teeth by now.. Just for kicks, is the grinding strong in the shifter? I ask because many guys use the gear shifter as an arm rest, which can mess the shift fork up.. good luck Jojo
  21. I got my name from a Young guy at the first Mack Dealership I worked at in Portland Maine... Scott Young, just started calling me 'Joey Mack"
  22. there is no shortage.. it is a game of power and profit, at our expense.. Jojo
  23. Those operations are not directly controlled by the President.... It's Latent...... Like shutting down the Keystone pipeline, and Opening our Southern border... "To every action, there is an equal and Opposite reaction" just a thought,,, I wish things were left alone after 2020... jojo
  24. the side cover for the spur shaft bearing, should have an o-ring.. they usually get flattened and hard as plastic, and stuck in the grove on the bearing housing.. if its not there, well,,,theres the leak... jojo
  25. I only suggested pulling the thin bearing cover behind the yoke, because there seemed to be a lot of oil, . I didnt want you to have to take it back apart, for the o-ring or gasket behind the bearing cover. Oh yeah,, about youre beer... I started putting my beer on a different bench,, just in case I get jumpy.. Love it.. jojo
