  1. Yes sir and it gets worse When the Mp engines get involved! Even changing a belt is an ordeal on these doubles the time ! They go out of there way to make things difficult! We had several Tandem Tandem Mixers here and with a body lift it makes for added frustration!
  2. Yup Joe same here memory little vague how ever believe your on it!
  3. The only way to check the lifters is to look from the bottom Pull the pan! If its running ok then leave it for now see what happens!
  4. Did you check the bridges as you were setting the Valves? There is also a possibility that if the yokes weren't set right that the yoke stuck momentarily bending that rod! Also in checking or changing the oil before you started this up did you check for pieces on the drain plug! A lifter failure is another possible issue ! I have seen where a failed lifter flipped from an adjacent lifter to the next and caused a bent tube! Your original measurements there Are All over the place! These engines usually hold a set Very well with in 2 -3 thou! Very suspicious!
  5. AMI-370 with the modifications done to it (manifold,turbo, injectors, 5” exh. In my opinion! How ever the MP engine is OK but more complicated ! Emissions is what kills most new engines due to the complexity ! AI engines a for the most part straight forward ! The Ai engine you quote the emissions have been some what defeated !
  6. That a boy you! Start Diggin Bro! πŸ‘πŸ‘Œ Yup! Opps! forgot to to tell ya! Your truck has to be parked for a month till we get a new BACKORDERED whatsit for the dilithium crystal generator! ! thanx for choosing Volvo Equipment!🀣
  7. Steeler did you try searching for a local ECU repair place? Just a thought! There are a few Delete guys out there!!
  8. Noticing this too! Our longest running machine shop closed here last month only one mom and pop shop left in town now! Sad ! They had been here since the early 60s My Dad used to use them ! The throw away society has crept up and over taken most of these places! And the walmart stand in line type places have taken over offering dollar store parts and very basic machine work or mail out style machine work!
  9. You might lose a cup of oil by replacing that line just do it!
  10. We would use the synchro kit from PAI over Mack solely for the price for 13/18 sp mack trans! Every bit as good ! we Never used PAI for Gears How ever I wouldn't hesitate if given a choice! We have a place local here quicker to deal with for gears as down time is important to most guys as well!
  11. Can’t oops 😬 Fixed it for you bro! 🀣
  12. You can't go far wrong with pai parts !
