Air dryer purging every 10-20 secs on my superliner
farmer52 replied to scottwetzel's topic in Air Systems and Brakes
Will a faulty unloader valve cause the wet tank to lose air (I have no air dryer on my MH)? -
1988 would be E6 not E7. Was one repowered?

Welcome to BMT and good luck in your search. There are some trucks listed in the For Sale forum.

Air dryer purging every 10-20 secs on my superliner
farmer52 replied to scottwetzel's topic in Air Systems and Brakes
According to the Bendix Quick Reference Catalog, the unloader kit for a Tu-flo 501 compressor is Bendix #279615N. I believe the Bendix "prefix" is 745. So that would make the Mack part number 745 279615N. Leslie - what is the model of air compressor on your Superdog? -
Hey Rowdy. I finally figured out the video. You shot the video driving forward then reversed it so we think you were backing. Very ingenious. Seriously, nice job backing. I can back a short trailer but only in a semi-straight line or around a single "random" corner.

Correct. The CAT combine is a joint venture with Lexion. Actually Lexion is CLAAS. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexion

Dang Jay...hate to see you sell this truck. But you have to do what you have to do. Just do your best to see it goes to a good home! Good luck! P.S. This truck needs to be in the Mack Museum.

UModel gaspot powered
farmer52 replied to Joe Ditchkus's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
IFRC, the engine "slanted" to the right. That would counterbalance the U cab. -
Yesterday's Tractors site has a serial number list with years (left column under Research). It does not mention the location of the SN.

Since I saw the new MACK logo I like the previous one better....and I did not like it previously. Bring back the old logos and Bulldog pin!

Found on PA Craigslist
farmer52 replied to Superdog's topic in Antique and Classic Mack Trucks General Discussion
I like the MH but not the price. -
The field test engines I followed would normally breakin between 50K and 100K miles. But usually after 50K everything looked "normal". To be on the safe side I would drop a few bearings and take a look. Perhaps the crankshaft was not ground correctly. An incorrect grind would not cause the vibration but a bent crank could cause the vibration AND bearing wear.
-
I like those Dodges but too far away.
-
If the lead is high...drop the pan and pull a few upper rod and lower main bearings. The lower main bearings and upper rod bearings are the ones that are loaded.
-
Dampener? Lead typically indicates bearing wear. Is the tin high also? Most bearings have a lead/tin overlay. Any other high wear metals (copper, iron, chromium, etc.)?

Ron, Thanks for the explanation and pics. BTW, now we know another way to "pull your chain".

Oliver HG42 - Charging 8 volt battery
farmer52 replied to markpwhit's topic in Tractors and Equipment
Based on my little knowledge of 8V batteries....my thought is you need an 8V charger. The 12V will overcharge and the 6V will undercharge. I have no experience with 8V batteries. Do you have a 6V battery that you can install? Disclaimer...you can try using the 6V setting but be VERY VERY careful. -
I may look for a cheap hotel a few miles away that is not on the shuttle route. Then ride a bicycle to and from the show. Hopefully they allow bicycles on the grounds. Otherwise I may have my own show at the Poverty Hilltop Farm.

Timmy, Now that you mention it, I do not remember working with any pump other than RBosch for the E7 (mechanical or electronic). And you know how all trucker stories start...."you are not going to believe this but....".
