doubletime Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Have sister trucks - 2009 Mack - am having a problem with the EGR in one of these trucks. Mack wants $10K to fix. I am a certified master mechanic and think I can do the work on my own IF I can get the proper tools. Anyone out there know where I can beg or borrow the tools for a weekend or if I have to - to purchase them? I simply don't' have ten grand to fix this truck - I just purchased them a few months back!

steeler Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 You'll have to have the injector cup tools. I don't have the part numbers handy, but I can get them tomorrow. You can order the tools from your dealer or find them online, they aren't cheap though.
