  1. That truck usually has a stainless braided line thats about 30" long and goes to a bracket on top of the tranny where it then goes to a rubber coated steel braided line to the input of the air dryer. #10 JIC fitting's on the line end's. takes a 1" wrench to remove/install them.. jojo
  2. so dry liners can be driven in with a block of wood??? I thought the .002" crush on the liner during install required either dry ice or a hydraulic press? just asking... jojo
  3. B.M.T. is Great!!  Try getting 'one tenth' of the ...answers, knowledge, part number's, link's to important information, pic's,  and the great friendship's......   at 'The Dealership' ?? Like we get here......  Jojo

  4. I totaly forgot something imortant..... yes the batt. switch is a thing.... but do you have a seperate toggle switch on the panel just for the 2 outer cab light's? I'm sorry I didn't post this in the beginning.... jojo
  5. I understand... you could pull the head liner down and dissconnect the hot wire to the outer lights, and connect the outer lights to the 3 center bulbs so they just come on with the park/headlight switch. and when you cut the hot wire that feeds the 2 outer lights, put a small heat shrink on the end of the hot wire so it doesnt short to ground anywhere... jojo
  6. gotch'a.. good luck ... the E-7 that I re-built because of age and the chipped liner, ran just fine and with a radiator cap that have the pressure relief lever on it and letting it breath when needed, and some coolant now and then.. some summer days were a bit hot for it...this was before I went through it..jojo
  7. I recently pulled liners from an ENDT E-6. I didnt have a hydraulic puller... I welded a spiral of weld on the inside of the liner, then used my Kent Moore liner puller. it was still a chore and I had to sharpen the dogs on my puller a few times to get a good bite. Then i had a machine shop press the liners in the block for me. My enigine was out of the truck, and I was re-building it.. for you to do 1 liner in chassis may be a lot of work, depending on tooling. Dry icing the new liner to get it in is a method you can use.. I never got real good at it. I also rebuilt an E-7, 2 years ago that was putting pressure in the cooling system. when I pulled the heads, #6 liner was chipped, just like you described your's is.. so far all is good... I hope I helped you with the approach to this repair... jojo
  8. I doubt it... did you look for a battery dissconnect switch? usually at the batt box area. they intentionally have the outside cab lights burn when batt's are switched on.. jojo
  9. Just recapping what I posted... The 2 clearence lights burning after the truck is cut of, is so that someone can see that the batteries are not cut off.. it's a safety item. .. Jojo
  10. That's a sad reallity... they are protected better than law abiding American's..
  11. Yes this thread is called, ' The best of Biden' but really , it need's to be called, "The Worst of the Democrats"... Cuomo gets a pass.... Really??? But 725 people are facing jail time for 1/6/2020??? and 1600 rioting vandal's get arrested after the Floyd case and get let out on a misdemeanor.. There's a ton more, if you just scroll back on this thread to see all of the 'real' comments about our 'King' you will agree... too bad us real American's can't help 'cleans' our community. Bleach aint strong enough....
  12. look for a battery switch on the batt box or near it... trash companies do that so the drivers cut the batts off after thier shift... jojo
  13. Man that is awesome! So good to see the work and that there is a young'n who learned a skill and is working his skill's... It's great, all the way around... Jojo
  14. the Jake on yours is a 690 series, E-7's had a 680 series, the top oil feed SB did help the performance, but it was still a lame E.B. compared to other engine makes. I remember test driving the trucks for weak Jake performance and having to fill out a report on oil pressure and engine speed, blah, blah, blah.... and then we would do a top oil feed conversion.. it was a very care filled job to drill the Jake head 'once' without busting through or missing the oil gallery.. anyway, maybe some one will post the bulliten, basically for entertainment purpose's jojo
  15. I wonder if anyone near him has the jig to drill the Jake head, and heck, the knowledge to do it? I dont have access to search out the service bulliten from 20 years ago... jojo
  16. What is it? We need a few more important details...
  17. I try to find reliable info about the 'shot', but all I hear is "Get the shot!" I dont usually get a flu shot, havent for years.. I dont know why I am so apprehensive about this 'shot'.. I think its the politics surrounding the Kung Flu..
  18. the C.D.C. say's that we are 5.4 times as likely to get Omicron compared to Delta because of how it mutates. and those of us who had the Kung Flu, have a 19 percent chance of natural immunity.. I havent gotten the shot/s yet.. I dont know what to do...
  19. the E-6 is 672 c.i.d. and the E-7 is 728 c.i.d. i think its just under 11 litre's.. Pretty impressive when compared to newer/larger engines. 'Slow and deliberate'
  20. I saw something similar. and the ER is plenty busy enough with non-covid patients. there is so much B.S. out there and so many people just beleive what the politicians say without think about it on thier own.. c'ya, jojo
  21. "Omicron" Here in my area, all the local news is saying how there are record numbers of covid cases right now. They all say that 80 percent of the people are "un-vaccinated"... But none of the reports say anything about those of us who already had the Kung Flu, as it relates to the new 'huge' numbers.. I have yet to hear... that these people already had the Kung Flu. You reckon our King is trying to hide something? and all the kings men and women are on board? ( Im sorry that I was 'gender specific' with my question), jojo
  22. before I forget.. the bridges need to be set to .010" on each end using 2 feeler gauges. the drag needs to be equal for proper valve opening timing as well as keeping a side load off of the bridge pins.. jojo
  23. Do you know if the Armolly reset screw kit p/n 215SB321 was installed? if so, the engine brake lash is .021". and like Glenn said, check the valve adjustment again.. .016" int. .024" exh.. jojo
  24. that would be cool... you reckon youll need a cab jack from a fire truck?? jojo
