    It originally had a S/P switch and POS ground,now NEG ground w/ 12V starter.four 6V batteries,so plenty of amps.

    I don`t have a hand primer on my ENDT673,so am planning to use Bob`s method.Bob,how long do you keep pressure on that tank?
  3. skydawg
    Lol,hope it keeps working.

    I tapped on the solenoid and starter with a hammer and it`s cranking again.I`m thinking maybe the contacts in the solenoid are corroded or pitted.I`ll remove it and see what`s up when I get a chance.

    My lift pump doesn`t have a hand primer.I replaced lines and the cartridge in the secondary filter.Can I prime the system with air to the fuel tank without opening any lines going to the injection pump? Thanks.

    My starter is on the passenger side of the engine,but bending a wrench is a good idea,thanks.

    How the heck do you get to that hidden top bolt to take out the starter?I`m guessing it`s bad.I can hear the drive gear hitting the flywheel when I push the start button,but no cranking.Batteries are fully charged,cable connections are clean and tight.I have (4) 6 volt batteries feeding a 12 volt starter.It`s worked great for the 2 yrs I`ve owned the truck,a1961 B61.Thanks

    Sold quickly.

    There`s also a much bigger filter that takes 2 stacked cartridges.The filtered oil from that goes to the oil cooler.This is an ENDT673 engine.

    This is a small Luberfiner,272-C,holds 4 quarts.

    How important is the check valve on the inlet fitting of a Luberfiner oil filter? The end of the spring broke or became unattached from the fitting and I don`t see any way to get it reconnected ,or even how it was attached. Thanks.

    I`m ready to install 4 Aeroquip oil hoses on my ENDT 673.Should I use any Permatex on the threads,or not necessary? Thanks.

    Perfect,thanks.

    Hi,I need hood lacing too.Could you post the source of the lacing and rivets?They`re a great finishing touch.Thank You.

    Is it possible to remove the fan and water pump as a unit,without removing the radiator,maybe loosening the shroud to get a little wiggle room for the fan blades?
  16. skydawg
    I`m not an accomplished mechanic like you guys.I`m out in the backyard standing on a Harbor Freight bench,leaning in w/ a 74 yo back.No way I`d get that out without punching a hole in the radiator.
  17. skydawg
    So that would mean pulling the radiator? Too much for me.

    The 2 bolts that mount the bracket evidently pass through the water jacket before threading into the block,and one leaks no matter how much Permatex I coat the bolt with.This seems like an odd arrangement for just bolting a bracket in place,and I`d think a common leaky spot.Any advicer or solutions? Thank You.

    Wow,what a surprise...

    You can also try Greg Hoffman,"Underdog" here on the forum,he`s a total pro and reasonable,and a good guy.

    Was this a new or restored truck when it was a display truck at Mack? Has it ever worked or is it basically a new truck?

    The filter on the left says Luber-finer 272-C.Not only is there no filter inside,there`s no center tube,it`s just an empty can.According to the Mack owners manual a pic of the same(or similar)filter has a tube the length of the canister with a T handle on top,same as the large filter on the right.Can anyone tell me if this a complete filter that never had a center tube,or has it been removed?Can`t see why anyone would do that.What would be the correct part# for the element for a 272-C? Thank You.So I guess 272-C is the part # for the clamp for the lid,it`s a 500 Luberfiner,and could have a center tube or not.

    Someone posted maybe 2 yrs ago,he bought two of the Hall Scott pumpers.He was gonna restore one,I don`t think he`s been on here in a long time.
  25. skydawg
    Terry,you`re correct,the filter on the right has two cartridges,stacked.The top filter came out smoothly,the bottom one gets even with the top of the center tube in the housing and comes to a hard stop.I can`t see what could be holding it there,when the top one came right out.These are WIX 51235 elements.Any help is appreciated,thanks.
