  1. Is that your single axle Mack that was in that repair shop in Norristown?Used to see it when I would drop off or pick up trucks for work.
  2. We’re those pictures taken in the highway material pit.Spent plenty of time there when Corson’s owned it doing their stripping.The truck looks great.
  3. I started in my dad shop doing all the steaming of the equipment when it came in for repairs.
  4. I don’t have much Mack extras,I mainly have caterpillar and other equipment literature.
  5. Is that the one you are looking for?If so will look today through all my boxes to see if I have an extra one.
  6. Mad dog,how far back did u leave it un coated to do the welding.I have been thinking of going this way.Thanks Mike
  7. Will be trying to clean and seal the 2 fuel tanks off my b87.Was wondering what method you guys have tried?I have throught about hanging a tank in some sort of a gib to shake it about,not quite as young as I was back in the day.Would have just held it and shook it about.
  8. It could be the injection pump.
  9. Use a pair of vice grip to twist the handle on the inside of hole.
  10. Never been in a quarry that didn’t have a dozer of their own.Didn’t look like it was very wet where he was stuck.Also could have done without that god awful music.
  11. The truck still didn’t run with the new pump from Mack on it.After thinking about it I changed the lines on the pump around,sure as shit when they rebuilt it they changed the suction side to the push side.Truck runs great now,will take it out on Saturday for a spin.
  12. I had the same problem with my 79 r model,turns out to be the primer pump on the side of the injection pump.
  13. Can you recall the title of the thread?
  14. 66dc75,that’s a beautiful truck.Is it yours?
  15. Got the new one in and the old dog still won’t fire,so after some choice words that we won’t mention here.I bypass the new pump and the filters and tried starting out of a can full of fuel.Runs like a Swiss watch.New pump is bad,that’s what I get for being cheap.Macks new one was $210 pai was $139,going to get a Mack one.
  16. Matt,what are you using for the curtains and if you brought them where did you get them.The truck looks great,keep the pictures coming.
  17. New one had to be ordered in should be in today.If so will be in the truck today also.Will let you know.
  18. FT,that’s the pump I’m looking for.Watts don’t have one.Found one hour and a half from home,m on my way in about 10 minutes.
  19. Does anyone know the part # for the hand priming pump.
  20. Licensed to kill,that is my plan to try and get it to start out of a jerry can.Never throught of the clear line will try that also.Thanks will let you know how I make out.
  21. My 79 r model won’t start.It has been hard starting if it sit for a while,like it loses it prime.Now it won’t start at all.Checked the filter it’s fill of fuel.It will start on starting fluid but won’t run on it own.The hand priming pump,I pump it like 50 times and it doesn’t get hard.I’m thinking it may be bad,anyone know the part number for will change it out.Any help would be most helpful.Thanks.Mike Durkin.
  22. My 79 r model when it would sit for awhile would lose its prime,give it a shot of starting fluid and it would start right up.Now it won’t start at all.Filter is full of fuel,crack the injector lines fuel to 5 of them.The one that didn’t have fuel was the second one back from front of motor.Going to replace filter it has some rust in it.Will blow back into tank to make sure line is not clog.Need some help.
  23. It was a great day to say the least.There was plenty of trucks,and the weather couldn’t have been better.But I think a great big THANK-YOU must be given to the Gentleman that puts this great show on every year,that would be Roger Gerhart.Roger I would like to say thanks for making this show happen with all that is going on in this country.Looking forward to next year.Thanks again.Mike Durkin
  24. Great looking truck,enjoy.
