Popular Post bubbamobilin Posted September 23, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted September 23, 2013 Had to go get my friend's CL with an E9 yesterday. He broke down in TN on I40 at the 311 mm. Think its got a gauld piston on or bad bearing on #7 or #8. Hope the crank ain't messes up. 7 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/32893-rescue-mission/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubbamobilin Posted September 26, 2013 Author Share Posted September 26, 2013 Well the big CL has a spun bearing on #8. #4 looks like it has 10 million miles on it but #3 looks brand new. Engine only has 375k since major overhaul with a new crankshaft. Looks like the rear journal was not getting enough oil. Anyone else seen this happen?

fullfuel01 Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Out of balance clutch, bent crankshaft for miscelanous other reasons? The clearance would have cause this sooner i think no?

When I paint my International there will be a bull bar going on just for the damn deer. Nobody hunts anymore in NY by me we are over run with deer. A couple of years ago my dad had three accidents in two weeks with deer. That's why I need to change my hood. Any way awesome air cleaners on the CL first I've seen here in the US. I know they did that in New Zealand on the CL's. Rob Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/32893-rescue-mission/#findComment-210619 Share on other sites More sharing options...
