  1. Thanks BC, I see item 49 but I agree with you...poor connections within the dash panel (perhaps on the circuit boards). If all the gauges, lights, etc. are erratic it is likely a cab ground issue. If only a select few gauges, etc. then an internal ground.
  2. I agree, ground issue but finding it another story. There are a lot of connectors under the dash but again I do not see a common connector for the cab. My only suggestion is to start with the main connector and work from there. The schematic shows individual grounds but no common connection. If you don't have a schematic I will try to scan mine and email to you. Electronics....don't ya' just love them! Where are you located?
  3. Yum, yum! I had grilled brats, burgers, and onions along with cabbage salad. Couldn't find Bob Evans brats so I bought Johnsonville. They ended up about 1/2 of uncooked size. Never liked Johnsonville and will never buy them again. Sorry no pic.
  4. That is what I thought. What is the diameter of the ring? The big piece in the lower left kinda looks like part of a thrust bearing.
  5. Give the arrangement number to your Mack dealer. They should be able to lookup what filter you need.
  6. Doug who??? Ice cream and beer? Yuk! But to each their own! Whatever it takes! Thanks Doug and others at ATCA for organizing and executing great Macungie shows. I am sure this year's show will be another great one. Now if only you could control the weather...
  7. I found the electrical manual for the MH. I see no common ground junction for the dash or cab. The LH Gauge Panel A and RH Gauge Panel C have individual grounds but a common ground wire within each panel (lights and gauges). The ground wire is an 18gauge Black. If I remember correctly, the gauge panel ground circuit is on the printed board. Do all your gauges and dash lights act strange? If not then I would say (SWAG) it is the individual gauge circuit. If it were a cab ground likely all the gauges and lights would be an issue. Like I stated earlier, run a jumper wire from the gauge ground to the panel screw. Or a good ground from the panel. Sorry I can't be more help. I will look at my MH when I get to PA later this week.
  8. Vlad, I was thinking, why not spend the summer and fall in USA. June - Macungie July - other truck and tractor shows August - Pro Footbal Hall of Fame activities in Canton, OH August - Watt's Truck Show October - Gerhart's All Mack Show October - Mack Show at Allentown Lancaster County - Amish and Railroading Altoona - Horseshoe Curve I am sure others know of events and landmarks to visit. You could bum around the USA and I am sure you could find places to stay. You have an open invitation if you visit Altoona, PA or Canton, OH
  9. My fuel gauge was acting erratic. I put a ground wire from the gauge to a mounting screw on the circuit board. That solved my issue. I have "static" in my satelite receiver and I suspect it is a "bad" ground somewhere. Have you used a good ground to the gauge and determine if the issue is resolved? Because of the fiberglas cab, ground is always an issue with MHs.
  10. I do not know without looking at the schematic. I am in OH and will try to look later this week when I am back in PA with my truck. What is your problem with the dash?
  11. I used my MH for personal transportation. I arrived at the show early on Saturday morning so I could get the same spot. 2013 Show Regulations (found on front of registration form) 3. Show trucks are requested to remain parked on the field until 4:00pm Friday and Saturday of the show. 4. Show trucks will be allowed on the field Thursday afternoon, June 13, 2013.
  12. Im so confused! Someone author a Mack book and include LOTS OF PICTURES!
  13. I see Olive on an Ag forum occassionally. As for Rob...well...no comment. Seriously I enjoyed Rob's comments, insight, expertise, etc. I don't think Rob made any comments that were out of line but some people are just more sensitive than others. But as I say, "delete and move on". Anything posted here is public. If it is a private message then that is something that needs to be handled between the parties involved in private. Wish RandyP a full recovery with his health problems and hope to see him back soon. Heck, we are all crazy,,,some just more than others. Just my "Sunday morning" philosphy.
  14. Doug - sent a note to Terry and received his reply...I am on the reservation list for Friday night. He said "bring a chair and an appetite". Since Leslie is not coming until Saturday, I will be eating for two.
  15. YES! BMT group photo at Watt's tent 12 noon Saturday! Be there! We should have a large group this year. Looking forward to see everyone.
  16. Congrats you lucky "dog"!
  17. The show is scheduled for July at Lakemont Park near Altoona, PA. I attended this show last year and there were just a hand full of trucks. In addition to trucks there were farm tractors and garden tractors. I am planning to attend this year but would like to get more trucks attending the show. Please mark your calendar and plan to attend. The registration fee is $9 before July 25th and $10 the day of the show. Lakemont Park has amusement rides so bring the family. Here is the link to the event http://www.calendarwiz.com/calendars/popup.php?op=view&id=63364731&crd=atca&PHPSESSID=4dbb635e45e3a7a4beeffffc69467cda Lakemont Park website: http://www.lakemontparkfun.com/
  18. Hmmm, let me think about that! BTW, nice F!
  19. I have the following NOS Mack parts that were from my H67. 236GB311A oil filter with O-ring 48RU278 muffler bracket I tried selling them awhile back with no takers. I am going to bring them to Macungie in June and they will not be making the return trip. If anyone is interested in one or both of these parts, please send me a PM. The first one gets them. I will not ship, only pickup in Macungie. Thanks!
  20. Vlad...reservation accepted....but I need at least one night's deposit...a bottle of Vodka? Winfall wimmin not included.
  21. 10-4....A 48" stack will put it at the top of the trailer. Curved stack pointed out at 45 degrees is what I am thinking. Going Monday to Cross Truck in Canton. Considered straight pipe but maybe next time.
  22. No one under 18!
  23. That looks good Vinny...drive it to Macungie!
