E-7 427 oil line question
Joey Mack replied to mackrmodel686st's topic in Modern Mack Truck General Discussion
Hey Buddy,, I'm glad you asked.. So oil ''volume'' is taken from the filter pad. It goes through those small bulk head connectors in the jake spacers. Then, under the covers is more of that line going to a 90 degree fitting that is drilled and tapped into the jake head right above the oil gallery in the jake head. the extra volume of oil along with some updates to the jake heads and replacing the oil pump with the 'new then' high pressure oil pump was meant to improve jake response and power. a new lash setting was part of the update, (.021'') from .015 -or- .017''.. Theres a bit more but I will stop here for now.. Good to see you Mech... Jojo -

E-7 427 oil line question
Joey Mack replied to mackrmodel686st's topic in Modern Mack Truck General Discussion
That line is part of the top oil feed update to the Jake heads.. it is supposed to improve Jake brake performance. It helped a little bit. The bulitine is on Mack E-Media if you want to read it.. -
ok,, I dont have enough knowledge on MRU concrete pumpers. I assume with an Allison transmission, with its own cooling system, and cooler.. Is it possible that there is a leak in that system? the tube you showed in the picture was new to me, so I may not have enough knowledge to help you.. grabbin' at straws, and it s bedtime.. Jojo
-
coolant can pass through an air compressor that has a blown head gasket. no different than an engine.. unfortunately, if you bypass the compressor cooling lines for too long you risk more damage to it. so, in the morning after sitting over night, have you loosened the oil pan plug to see if coolant runs out around the plug ? does it blow mist/steam right away or does it need to warm up first? Heck??? does the compressor look like its old and crappy? does it build air pressure good?
-
so the CCV is clean as well? no mayo........ I wonder if the air compressor is bad and passing coolant into the crankcase?
-
how often and how much coolant do you add to the tank? have you pulled the top off the CCV to see if its got 'mayo' in it?

so true, I just did an E-Tech cam 2 weeks ago.. I had to wait for a new cam key before I could put the cam in, so therefore, I couldnt do any lifter work, or install the rockers and jakes.. to save time..

Mech, I am quite sure as you read these posts, you shake your head and say "what the hell it this crap".. I find myself doing it, and I dont have as many years in, as you do.. I wish I did more with e-6 and older engines, as well as the trucks they were in, but I came around too late.. Jojo
