Third time, I bumped it for 3 seconds and to my surprise, it started running. The smell of bas gas! HAS A REAR WHEEL CYLINDER LEAK. now getting seats NEED INFO ON HORN BUTTON SPRING AND GROUNDING.

limberlost Posted July 6, 2022 Author Share Posted July 6, 2022 Original owner was Brigham City, Utah and later to Corrine Utah while title still held by Brigham City. So when I purchased it, it's as if I am the second owner. I just removed the left rear brake drum to repair a wheel cylinder leak. It has two cylinders type FF PER THE ORIGNAL MANUAL WHICH OVER 1 INCH THICK. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/70041-mack-c95f/#findComment-502221 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrsmackpaul Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 I have seen amazingly bad spark plug leads on farm tractors, a bit of bare fencing wire made up a few inches on one lead, didnt miss or ark across Thinking the voltages are a lot lower on older gear I think these will need to be replaced with solid core leads or it wont work right but probably wrong there Paul Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/70041-mack-c95f/#findComment-502226 Share on other sites More sharing options...
