    Yeah ... Off washington ave. in the Munjoy Hill.. neighborhood... I lived in Kennedy Park for a short time... 500 feet away... Jojo

    OK, Just curious. I lived in Portland Maine for a long time and could smell the bakery everyday... Jojo

    I am also curious about the back half . Syncro.... they will act stupid if the snap rings inside the synchro assembly go bad or were left out by a newbie when they synchro was replaced. It's like a motorcycle clutch just bigger and has 2 sets of thrust plates and friction plates... Anyway, there will be more info from others to help you. I have the book on this tranny and can send pics if needed.. Jojo

    Pull the shift cover and inspect the rails, and the silver set bolts in the forks for looseness and any slop... What is the history on this tranny. The poppet balls in the shift cover control rail position, which controls the forks... jojo

    around 125- 150 degrees for engine brake operation. "V's" test is a good reliable test procedure... ...... I hope you are having a great summer in Maine. I lived there for 23 years. I miss the taste and smell of the fresh air... Joey

    I think you have what some call a "Gray Motor"? If so? do you have a code for it? if so, good chance its a wire issue. This system will be "power leash".. If the engine is "red", then it's a volvo MP-7. Anyway ... try to post more info when you can.

    It's a reostat, just turn it to see if the dash lights work., if the lights come on but act stupid,,,, rotate the dial left and right as fast as you can to see if is just dirty.. it may come back to life.... Jojo

    you have a volvo/mack... so remove the triangle panel on top of the dash, under the C.B. posts and check the relay cubes for the issue.. Your ground wires are GRAY. Just incase you are checking them. there is a small group of grounds above the throttle pedal, to the right. You can look down through the top panel to see them and how to check them. Jojo

    do you have a dial for the dash lights? They do mess up..
  12. Joey Mack
    May I suggest a good inspection of the plug on the truck harness, and gently tighten the terminals before you plug the new sensor in... Jojo
  13. Joey Mack

  14. Joey Mack

  18. Joey Mack

  19. Joey Mack
    I will see the truck again on Tuesday. I will take a pic of the data plate..
  20. Joey Mack
    so it's a 9 speed and not a 310 or 310m tranny? I'm just curious... and the tranny is a Mack?
  21. Joey Mack

    I adjusted the air in my toy truck also, for the same reason.. I just put air in until the center of the tire started to get round, but not narrow. I ended up at 45 PSI, for my tires.. 80 is max, for my 9.00 20's..
  23. Joey Mack
    thank you Vlad... I look forward to the next 2 shows in our area in the next 4 months... Jojo

    I also had the priviledge of meeting GADave... He was cool and very, much dedicated to his craft... If he ever writes a book, I will read it...Jojo

    I have had a helper to press the clutch fast and hard for me, while I had a piece of flat stock, or a large screwdriver put in place opposite the button, so that the throwout bearing doesnt just move at an angle relieving the pressure to push the button in..... I still dont like these clutch brakes. I prefer the 2 piece aluminum type with the 2 skinny allen headed screws. and the hole is way to small, as you say... jojo
