Too bad your not closer to me. I build those engines in my personal shop, and there is a DEX 30 minutes from me.. i picked up an engine there 2 years ago for one of our BMT Brothers and built it for him.. BTW, that truck model is a CV -713..

Yes

Do you have a row of celenoid s on the frame rail behind the cab? They are small. And they are piggy backed. They control suspension, fifth wheel, power divider, or whatever else. That i where the air is delivered to the component.

Hmm?? Is it a free truck? what do you mean by abandoned? The CV is a great working Dog chassis..

my tiny castle is on a fenced in acre. my drive has a homemade electric remote control gate.. it is not heavy duty, but,,,,, It Draws A Line !!! It is also Rowan County Deputy Approved.. They know us by name, and even call us to ask how the 'Hood' is doin'.. 6 days ago as a matter of fact.. We have 8 cameras that run 24/7 on 2 recorders.. 4 terrabites of storage, and they are hard wired, so there is no choppy recordings, crystal clear as a t.v. soap opera upon playback..

here is something I wouldnt expect to see if our Gov. was conservative with a conservative who was in charge of Education... Charlotte Mecklenburg school system invited ''DaBaby'' A Rapper,, to Garringer High School.. Really??? with all the issues that Obama/Biden created within the Black communities,,, and baiting the hook with 'Racism'. The best they could do is bring in a Rapper, with many arrests, which include gun violence and being involved in a shooting, and 1 other gun charge.. Tell me drugs and Whores are not mixed in there somewhere?? Here is another avenue that the Biden Klan is using to destroy our country.. He supports all of the violence in the Black community.. He doesnt care that they are Human Beings, and there is a need to help squash these issues in their community, and to try to help the ones that want a better life.. J.B./ K.H. don't care !!

My '99 Sporster has the original starter.. That really is a bullet proof bike..

$3.35/ gal. 87 octane here.. it goes up and down often. .10 - .15 cents at a time...

funny video, but kinda scary too.. his words were altered so good that he sounded like he really said it. this tech. will be used to create fake videos, of Trump, and cause him more trouble before November.

Just sittin here thinkin' To me... the need for big power in big rigs is a common topic. trucks were... well... trucks... not supposed to be racecars, but to get products to the wharehouse and the stores and so-on.. our world moves and drives much faster than ever and I expect it to get faster.. My issues are only a few. the government controls something that they have never done,,, Truckers want to be the fastest truck going uphill at 79,000 lbs. and then tree huggers who dont know a damn thing about trucking, want to control the exhaust from the trucks... these 3 things are what has screwed up ''Driving a Big Rig'' just my simple minded opinion.. Jojo..

Pansies !!!!

Yep,, you told me that a year ago,, thanks.. I pushed it into my shop earlier.. going to lay out the new wiring for it, a little at a time.

G.W. is is the right one for my '48 KB-7,,BD 269?

You Big Softy...

🤔

Changing parts,, yes,,, knowing why and how, different story.. if you just put the back case together without setting bearing preload, then you have problems, for example...

Harbor freight. They work fine and arent $100.00

any chance the thrust buttons are out of adjustment and the cam is walkin' a bit?

have you taken the belts off and run it?

do you have an infrared temp gun? if so, when it gets hot, pull over raise the idle up and check the water manifold at the rear of the rear manifold, and see if it is close to what the gauge says. there may be 10-15 degree difference due to shooting the outside of the manifold and not the coolant. just curious if you have a gauge issue or sensor issue right now. BTW... your truck is a CV-713 not 513.. Jojo

are you hearing the air compressor kick on and off?

typically 50 PSI of freon is enough to start the compressor, one of my issues was not being able to jump start or test the compressor with the engine off. it is a 3 wire harness, unlike the 2 wire harness we know.. wont hurt my feelings if I never learn how to fix this disposable compressor.

I respect that.. I was a builder at Mack for years and the price of re-man w/warranty out weighed an in-house rebuild.. too bad.. I took pride in my builds..

I am not able to answer most of your tech. questions, GW.. but what I do know, is it makes trouble shooting A/C issues harder, especially on a road call, and you dont have a laptop with the correct programming. Even with A-Pads on the truck I have struggled with them. I dont like to just throw a compressor on as a guess, I want to know why, before I spend the customers money..

here is a sample. it is controlled by the EECM.
