It’s a shame they can’t filter out then suck the exhaust! Imagine that would involve a fair jag of plumbing thou!😡
-
Means going back to 2000 to find something that doesn’t eat shit! Cat or otherwise! good luck!
-
Yup! Good thought!
-
Wondered my self not that it maters much think that cam will be pouched! But ya never know!
-
Sorry bro never had this happen ! Try making something with a hook on it to grab the slot from the inside and pry up! Is all I can think of at the moment!
-
There is no good design for making an engine eat it’s own shit simply an All round bad idea! Try it yourself sometime you will likely not like it!
-
Check the diff pressure sensor on the Venturi tube they tend to clog with soot! 4 screws! if I remember right! Note I am not a guru on these just something to check!
-
When your driving a Pete you don't need to see anything! You assume everyone is looking at you!
-
Yup me too bro!
-
Have you checked the tank vent? And You can actually take the Drainback tee apart and stretch the spring to raise the pressure some 20 25 psi won't hurt anything!
-
Iran and Greenland are just distractions. Yup smoke and mirrors my Friends ! Keep your heads down! more to come! Duck Bob And weave! 🙄
-
I had them stuck so bad even with a puller it ripped the the threads out of the return nut! Also had the injector sleave com out with the injector! This can happen on a 4 valve injector as well if the bottom injector washer does not seal correctly ! not more gooder! 😡
-
Also check the return check Tee there if you take it apart to see if the spring is broken that can cause low pump pressure ! you need bare min 15 psi to run clean at full load fuel demand !
-
You have to be real careful with out a proper tool once you have the ring on and I advise using lock tight .and quickly put the flywheel on to push the ring in to its proper depth!
-
And really you should use a proper installer for the ring it can be real temperamental to install straight! We had a tool to install that pushed the whole shooting match on in one go and to the proper depth! just saying

Heinz?
-
Yup! Run some water over that pipe that the Heinz is showing you we called thes the asshole pipe designed by a Volvo idiot! the last thing to happen on a Saturday afternoon end of the day! You think you’re done and then this!
-
played around with oilers. Not sure when I will get alignment tool so I think I will go off law of averages and get them all close to the same. Me thinks You should be fine doing that! as for the seal are you using the wiper ring or just a bare seal!?

yup he weren't flippin burgers to qualify for that! banks are Criminal! -
AHHH! out of my league!
-
Ch will be vGT me thinks!
-
I do understand your concern! Max book specs I would guess ! unfortunately we aren't there so I guess all we can do is count on your expertise to make a call! If they are all Mack parts If I were doing what you are doing I would go with it! and trust that the parts they made are good! ! have built quite a few 237 and 285 E6 and never encountered an issue BUT there is always that possibility I guess! your call Bro! I personally feel good about how your attacking this! Just Sayin!
-
So i see did you check the ring gap in the bores and you did have to file some ends! If you didnt file too much I would put this question in a a dark corner and move on! You can stew for ever on this ! Joey mentioned putting in a piston with out rings that is a good thought! But what is the min- max measurement with that method just a gut feel ! I have a gut feel as well and it is if it ran before it will run again ! if these pistons are NEW Mack pistons or the old ones they will be fine if they came with a kit they should be fine if they are what you ordered! Just ME!
-
Nope I not that guy! Sorry! No brain function today!🙄 This is another it ran before it will run again sinario!
-
Do you have the piston cooler target plate?
