  1. yes, the A hole B hole tool with the rod.. sounds like an adult movie... one thing for sure... if you do it wrong, you will be F'd !! jojo
  2. I know one thing... He will need a half a reem of paper and extra toner to print the book on just this portion of the repair.. I know... I did it. In total, I believe I have about 400 pages (single sided) on just the MP-8.. In my library I have books that thick, but they cover MANY versions of the engine. anyway, it's great that you have access to this info.. jojo
  3. yeah,,, you need a downgrade. your phone works too good...
  4. youre talking about the 'A' hole and the 'B' hole tool.. yep, got to have the lower timing cover off to do it. then you need 2 bars made by Volvo to press the cover back down in order to bolt it back in place properly... terrible... jojo
  5. Bob, just go to "Dumbass.com" you can get all the lates apps... like how to make a sandwich, and how to wipe your ass, and so on.. Hell I got one that shows me how to open jars.. jojo
  6. I thought they had an app for that on thier phones??? ooops
  7. So true Mech... So true.. It baffles me that as a customer I have to be a teacher to get the parts I need... I want a training bonus... jojo
  8. I know exactly what you are saying... I do it almost every day... I go to Oriellys and tell the young'n how to look it up, even when I have the part number... it's a sad time for us.. jojo
  9. yes sir... I have 2 spare sets of 200 series tranny books and an extra set of 300 series books, plus Mack rears and drive shaft books and failure analysus books and so no.. I may sell 1 of each set, as a set... jojo
  10. $75.00 for the real book... easy decision... I just bought 2 more books for what i work on.. less than $30.00 each... easy breezy....
  11. just 1,, but its the right one... I will share pics if I have the correct info... jojo
  12. inspection hole at 6 o'clock....
  13. sorry... MP-8 is on the front.... MP-7 is on the rear.. jojo
  14. no... a '0' on the flywheel, and a TDC mark on the front of the cam... jojo
  15. 'FJH' Im about to learn something as well... Ive only built 3 of these MP's and done 6+ cam jobs.. and cup's, cup's cup's... I guess I missed the part about how to adjust the idler gear enough to account for a machined head. I too will sit back and watch.. One thing for sure.... I will not be building any of these in my shop.... I will stick to E-6, E-7, and E-tech's.... I have 2 in my shop now.. plus a 3cyl. John Deere diesel.. Jojo
  16. Leaking fuel anywhere.... is a place for air to get sucked in or let air in to let fuel drain back.... loosing "Prime" just sayin... jojo
  17. Mackey... too funny..... I am always scratching my head lately... I have to bring the slacks and air fittings and air valves and so on with me every time, because they have no clue what im looking for, and these parts were standard issue... Good luck getting what you need... jojo
  18. Well Jessica told me that a wheel end repair including a hub, rotor, pads, misc costs, and labor an be over $2000.00 / wheel end.. Been there fixed that.... While a 3600 drum and a set of 4707 QP shoe's is under $300.00... Jojo
  19. I think its time to knock the mountain down to a mole hill... keep on the regular maintenance, and you should be fine for a long time... and fresh filters each time you question it's operation... jojo
  20. Lots of good info here... also check the condition of the wires and terminals in the round duetch plug on the governor housing.. you did say '97 right?? jojo
  21. May I suggest running these valves the Mack way and not the 'Cat' way.. I never stray from the Mack way and my valves are right and quiet... with respect, Jojo
  22. Thanks Mark. I was trying to help him with this, and wasnt sure if the small bolt had a small set of threads inside to cage the fork, like the older Eatons did for the power divider.. I think the leak is an o-ring and/or cracked piston.. Jojo
  23. very good.. I need to go back to bed.. I couldnt sleep so i came here... now im sleepy again. I will check in later. jojo
  24. Yes sir I understand.. I guess, for me, I would go for it because I have had many of these rears apart, just not one with diff locks in a long time. but the inner workings are pretty standard.. I dont feel like im helping much... sorry.... jojo
  25. The front diff. system may just be a power divider lock. It would be going into the input housing..
