I've always used a standard flex handle ratchet on the E-Techs except for those in mixers. For the ASET AC and for mixers I use a ratcheting box wrench slid over the bit on a stubby 8mm Allen socket. It's just short enough to get in between the radiator shroud and the tensioner. The MP engines are a different story altogether...

You're right, horsepower and torque drop off dramatically after the rated operating speed is exceeded.

and then use the money to buy the $300 Snap-on tool?

Sounds like it may be injector cups.

On a related note, here's one on economics:

MP7, 8, or 10? Check the hand primer pump and make sure it's locked down. If it's not locked down it can allow air into the fuel system. You would need special tools (fittings, attaching screws, pressure gauge, etc.) to check the fuel pressure.

I like the white fenders.

Interior doesn't look real tore up. Truck prolly doesn't need the roof mount Kysor unit, looks like the cab is equipped with full time perforated air conditioning/ventilation system. Bumper belongs on a Peterbilt Parts record for the VIN tag pictured in the listing shows a CRD117 with 3.71 ratio

Here's another one Barrack Obama was touring the countryside in his chauffeur-driven limo. Suddenly, a donkey jumps out onto the road, they hit it full on and the car comes to a stop. Obama says to the chauffeur: 'You get out and check, you were driving.' The chauffeur gets out, checks and reports that the animal is dead. 'You were driving; go and tell the farmer,' says Obama. Hours later, the chauffeur returns totally plastered,hair ruffled with a big grin on his face. 'My god, what happened to you?' asks Obama. The chauffeur replies: 'When I got there, the farmer opened his best bottle of whiskey, the wife gave me a slap-up meal and the daughter made love to me.' 'What on earth did you say to them?' asks Obama. 'I knocked on the door, and when it was answered, I said to them,'I'm Barrack Obama's chauffeur and I've just killed the jackass.

Awesome. "The Cowboys" with John Wayne is on right now. I think they're running a marathon of "The Rifleman" on AMC tomorrow.

Where is that old coot anyhow? One thing about Randy's Killer B, it sees action every day, gotta respect that!

Don't think I've seen it but "Castle Keep" is pretty good.

Mr. Millwood told me it's actually made by Winnebago.

Guess what rolled into town today.

One I've always been partial to is the one one with Frank Sinatra hijacking the train and sneaking through Nazi Germany. Von Ryan's Express.

Your truck was built 9.25.96 and shows auxiliary shaft part number 453GC381M. You should be able to use shaft part number 453GC435M or 453GC435MX per SB 212-029. The parts system shows 453GC435M to be in stock.

#5 wrecking yard? Whats your VIN?

Looks like it, but even if it's not, still one bad mamma-jamma!

Are you talking about the high pressure fuel lines? Reusing old lines or not properly tightening new lines can allow the lines to leak and spray fuel on the exhaust manifold which can catch fire.

Thas one bad mamma-jamma!

A set of scurvy dogs indeed!

Check your heater control valve and make sure it is closed fully.

The RTOF should have a forward shift cover (I think they used a lot of these in the International Paystar chassis). The RTO should be the standard cover. As far as I know the rest of the internals are the same.
