  1. Doug - sounds like a plan....BMT meeting at TK! Marked my calendar.
  2. Vlad and Ilya - it was nice to meet you at Macungie. I am glad you found the USA enjoyable. You visited many interesting places and saw alot of beautiful scenery. Oh and a few Macks too. Have a safe return trip to Russia and hope to see you again soon.
  3. I wish I had a business where I could blame the customer. Seems no one is willing to take responsibility. Good luck and hope things work out for the best.
  4. Yep, made it home without any issues, well maybe one....there is one hell heck of a bump around Kutztown, PA on I-78. Going down hill, hit the bump, and jumped out of gear. Why is 78 so dang bad?
  5. I asked for a spot that was high and dry. It was close to the unloading area and the Friday night love-in.
  6. Excellent pics. Thanks for posting. But I did not see any MHs.....
  7. Is the hot wire connected to a solenoid or relay somewhere? Have you checked all the fuses? Did you try charging the air line with compressed air to see if the solenoid actuates? Grasping for a solution.
  8. JT - been doing some searching on the interweb. The cylinder/solenoid is definitely connected to the fuel shutoff lever. Are you sure the line is to be connected to the air/boost and not an oil pressure line? Glenn may be onto something. If the cylinder does not see oil pressure, there is no current flow and the solenoid will not energize or move the lever. Back the the interweb......
  9. That looks like it is the fuel shutoff, not an air supply shutoff. My suggestion would be to install a cable to manually shutoff the fuel. Put a return spring to hold it in the run position. Give my friend a call. Maybe you can find a service manual.
  10. I am guilty for leaving at 3:30p. Beat me please!
  11. Another Pennsyltuckian. Welcome to BMT. Being the anal person that I am....do not use ALL CAPS. That indicates YELLING!
  12. Welcome to the "funny farm" Dillon JT - when I first read your post I thought you put "shitty folks". I think it is time to change my glasses.
  13. JT - can you show on the picture where the air cylinder is located? Also a few closeups of the fuel pump on top of the engine. It is visible from the left side of the engine.
  14. I didn't buy much compared to others but here is what I bought. Both my wife and I worked at Hagerstown so I thought this would be a nice addition to our collection of shelf sitters.
  15. After seeing all those shiny Superdogs at Macungie, he went home and polished all night.
  16. Second pic - Babymack and Vision are discussing why OD was not at the show. Third pic - Vinny is the quiet young man standing on the left. Fourth pic - Farmer sitting there wondering if there is any dessert left that he can eat.
  17. Nice truck but over my budget.
  18. Happy Birthday
  19. Wherever 2 or more BMT members are present is reason enough for a group picture.
  20. Nice pics Randy...thanks for posting. CAT 3408....nice. Waiting for the muscle car pics.

  22. I had a couple myself (late 70s) and I had a neighbor when I lived in Illinois that had one with a 440V8.
  23. Just added my few pics. I tried to edit out duplicates that are already posted. Enjoy! http://s1305.photobucket.com/user/pafarmer52/library/2013%2006%20Macungie%20Truck%20Show?view=media#/user/pafarmer52/library/2013%2006%20Macungie%20Truck%20Show?view=media&page=1&_suid=137146537171405364817101384165
