Anthony Corleone Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 I have a 2011 mack cxu613 mp7 and having a hard start. It cranks over fine but it takes over a couple minutes to fire up. It doesn't have any codes or lights on the instrument panel. Appreciate the advice!

Popular Post BOBWhite Posted January 28 Popular Post Share Posted January 28 Good to see some newer stuff here! Do you think you could be getting air somewhere in the system? I'd start with checking fuel pressure then move on to using clear fuel line to see if you're getting any air bubbles though. Western Truck and Tractor Repair on YouTube recently did a series on a similar problem on a Paccar motor, that could be helpful if you're trying to diagnose it yourself. Best of luck! 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73797-thanks-for-letting-me-join-the-group/#findComment-545721 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Mack Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 yep, aerated fuel.. can you pump the hand primer before trying to start it, to see if it starts quicker, if the hand primer leaks, its no good. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73797-thanks-for-letting-me-join-the-group/#findComment-545724 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthony Corleone Posted February 23 Author Share Posted February 23 Sorry for late response! I replaced fuel filter primer housing and still having a hard start. I was told it could be cam sensor and crank sensor. Pulled the cam sensor there was no sign of damage. Any help would be appreciated!

I pulled it off and didn't see anything wrong. I even left it off to see if fuel was pumping out the line which fuel is coming through line.
