  1. Dammt!!!! now I want Cake and Ice cream... Merry Christmas.... Hope I'm allowed to say that.... 🤫 Go Bulldog, Jojo
  2. I also forgot to ask if the sensor is "set" right... ( all the way in, then one full turn out)?
  3. It's all good.. I feel sure the tone ring is pressed on in Mack tranny's. His series would be a 300, not much different from 200's... there are some slight differences, the 4th 5th sliding clutch is fine splined like an eaton. otherwise its similar to 200's. Multi speed reverse adds a different set-up in the back box with caged reverse idlers...... anyway, a loose yoke could cause the code... its great to chat with you, Jojo
  4. Terry, Im new here... I came her to talk about the truck that I am proud of! That and freindly chat is all I want!... Thank you for what you said. Merry Christmas! Jojo
  5. Thats a new one for me.... makes total sense!
  6. Heck, I also forgot to ask if its a Mack tranny... the tone ring may be pressed onto the yoke, Eatons have a separate tone ring, in this year model. just like the FRO 15,16,210C tranny's ive put synchros in... Correct me if i'm wrong, Vmac3.. Jojo
  7. Were on the same page Vmac3... Im glad you took the time to type all of what you know... You are absolutely right!!!
  8. Just curious.... is the tranny yoke loose..?
  9. I always measure my shelf depth, I keep an old liner that i trimmed. i measure each time i use it, write down my measurements. shelf depth usually falls around 4".03... on an uncut counter bore.... i take that measurement along with the new liner measurement. around 4".10... anyway,... when I set a liner i shoot for .028" protrusion. I always get my liners within .002"... mack spec is .023-.029... Im telling you this because I hope who is doing the build understands this... Vmac3... please chime in... I have seen too many engine builds go bad because the "tech" said he could do it..
  10. yes..... As far as inspecting it with idea of re-using the liners, in rare cases in my experience you can do that. However, why take the chance? Hopefully when he pulls the liners, the counter bore shelf will be good. if not, just get them cut.. I have always built these engines with Mack parts, but 4 months ago i built a 1990 E-7 with P.A.I. engine kit and heads.. so far the truck is running goo, I talk to my customer often to keep up on it.. I'm sure a few others will chime in on this, there are a lot of smart people here.. "F" from canada, and vmac3.... They may offer some advice too.. Jojo Good luck, let me know how it goes.. a
  11. I just want a cold beer. Merry Christmas Dog, Jojo 😀

      Merry Christmas to you and yours! I've been wanting a beer for over a week now, they call out to me every time I open the refrigerator.  But when I went to the Dr's. office for that gout over a week ago the first thing the nurse said was " you know, red meat, seafood-especially shellfish- and beer are the worst things for gout". I thought "great, 3 of my favorite things ".

      So sorry,  I may be on that same path.... Jojo..

  12. another good lookin Mack.... Is a CL... Tall and strong. I drove one for a short time, Tri 'X' dump truck, 460XT, 18 Spd. 4:42 200 series rears.... It was a Hoss!!
  13. Hey Bubba, we'll get to the bottom of this... Jojo
  14. Hello, I'm trying to find one of these dust shields. I sure could use a Part number... Thank you, Jojo.
  15. Yes sir I am,,, yes and the Davco filters have a coil inside that coolant can flow through if the fuel heater option is used.. Jojo
  16. Yes I remember E.U.P. issues, what do you think about the A.P.U. causing this issue, provided the truck has one.... I have done the simple fix of replaceing the Davco 382 filter assembly, to stop contamination, however in N.C. i dont see too many with coolant connected to them. When I lived in Maine, I saw plenty.. I have also only replaced 1 cup in an E-Tech, Glad youre here, Jojo
  17. Hello Jeff M. Great picture. I lived there 25 years, I Graduated from Gray New Gloucster high school in 1987, I drove for Mietta construction in Scarborough for 2 years, 98-2000(Late 70" RD's and DM's)... Merry Christmas, Jojo..
  18. does the engine look like it was re-assembled? New heads, Turbo, water pump, fuel lines, Paint, air filter, radiator, ? If it's an IEGR engine, and was really re-built, check warranty status. The IEGR engines are good, .. Good luck , Jojo
  19. Just curious.... does the truck have an A.P.U.?
  20. Just curious... "V".. are you suggesting there is a Davco filter on the truck and it failed?? I'm trying to think how this could happen on a Legacy engine... sounds like an 8-3 code... i dont think he has an MP ...I pay attention to to what you write. I worked in mack dealerships for 9 years.. i left 2 years ago... Glad youre here, Jojo

    Engine Manual

    Is yours a 4valve? If so I have the real shop manual.. I sent the 2 valve book just so you can see the book P/N.. Jojo.
  22. Hello again, i checked with P.A.I... I was not able to buy directly from them,  this is the second time I tried recently.. I have a login name and password with them. My question is, Do I have to be a big truck repair shop or Dealership ? Have you been able to buy from them? I found what I need at another parts supplier, the parts were.... P.A.I.... It reminds me of not being able to buy Kent-Moore and O.T.C. tools directly.. Take care, Jojo

  23. thanks,, I had a brain fart, I dont do as many anymore. I built an e-7 3 months ago, but off course forgot ... Thanks again... I'm getting rusty:)
