  1. It's all good.. There are some really smart people here.. I feel like Vlad from Russia will know the answers, and Glenn, Hell there's too many to list.. theres a bunch from Canada too... you'll see.... jojo
  2. This is on an '87 superliner, behind the right steer tire... jojo
  3. unfortunately, I have little to no knowledge on this model, just know where it is on newer Macks
  4. I did see that he has a passion for Asian food... His favorite dish is : Cream of Sum Yung Gy. and a Poo Poo Platter is alway's a hit. jojo
  5. thats where I buy my mack tools
  6. yes. as long as it seals to the coolant filler neck.. the fluid will change color if exhaust is detected.. yellow or purple.. just follow the directions... jojo
  7. any chance the full vin is stamped in the right frame rail in front of the cab by the steer tire?
  8. is the primer pump leaking when you prime it up?
  9. Damn... I get it.. shit happens.... jojo
  10. at the least I reach into the truck and check the shifter to see if its in nuetral, especially on freight shakers, like the one thats in my shop today, because the key is in the bottom left corner and its easy to just stick the key in and crank while standing on the ground.. so i reach in and push the stick to be sure.. jojo
  11. I saw that, just wanted to have a laugh... jojo
  12. or at the least a broken right hand... ouch!! jojo
  13. I thought the same thing... I cant imagine the force it took to break a Mack tranny.. I would expect the driver had broken ribs from the thrashing that occured... jojo
  14. yep, and 'V' is pretty slick too.... and Mackpro.... jojo
  15. RW-713/ 001554.... E-9 450/500... Eaton 15 spd... jojo
  16. The meek shall inherit the earth...was some BS I heard years ago... Hell, it's true... WTF???
  17. I'm so sorry... I have only done 3 bull gear replacements, and yes it is a big, EXPENSIVE job. the last one I did was in a GU rolloff trash truck. I pulled the engine on that one. I also had to do a harness, rods and mains, and a valve adjustment. So I decided to pull it.. When my servivce manager got back from training and saw the engine on blocks, he flipped out and looked at me and asked what was I thinking, and said we dont need any Mavericks here.. I just finished my work, and when the time came to test drive the truck, I didnt have to go back and re-fix a damn thing.. anyway, a bit off topic, just wanted to share some history.. jojo
  18. I am a nut when it comes to shop manuals, They are priceless to me. They never need batteries, or a WiFi signal to operate.. and they are portable as well,, What a concept !! I have a Midliner svc manual coming on tuesday. #526S In the pics, the table with the tranny and rear end books, is one of 3 complete sets that I have.. 2 sets dont even have my greasy finger prints in them... Jojo
  19. Another thing,,,, I dont mean to question youre skill's, but I have to ask... When you cleaned the cup bores, did you have all of the cups out or just 2? if so, was the cleaning process thorough? there are galleries in between that can hide particles and bristles from any brushes, and so on. did you make sure the seats were free of carbon and debris before seating the cud. did you use the correct cup installing tool? sorry about all the Q's, but i have to ask.. was the swaging bit new or within specs? ok, I will stop here for now.. with respect, Jojo
  20. Yes,,, if compression/cumbustion squeezes between the injector seat of the cup, and the bore in the head. I would expect it to push coolant. jojo
  21. I have to admit... I've only done about a dozen MP harness's, it's been 4+ years since the last one, until 2 weeks ago.. Take a guess on what I did??? JOJO
  22. Are you needing the part number for the bell housing to fit the Eaton tranny. I have a VIN from an '87 Superliner, with the 15 spd. Eaton.. bolted to an E-9.. jojo
  23. I see you replaced the wire harness.. When you start the truck, does it turn over for about 10 seconds before it fires? My point is that if the harness is not plugged in correctly, you will get multiple codes and extended crank times. this would indicate that the cam and/or crank sensor are not plugged into the correct sensors. For some reason, VOLVO, uses the same type of plugs and duetch connectors on the harness, so it is very easy to plug into the wrong sensor.. jojo
  24. There is a ton of info stored in the brains of the members here.. I believe that when you start working this truck you will be happy with it. So for now, thats all I got. jojo
