I’m not very familiar with these and getting more distanced I’m fortunate to be retired from this up and coming mess!just throwing stuff up I had heard around the shop! Also was there not a check valve down stream that was troublesome?
-
I wonder if the previous part putteroners did relearn data resets ! just thouing that out there!
-
Yup best breakin bar none! Start out slow get it up to temp and work it hard! The more weight involved the better! Avoid idle warmup! The bigger the bang in the cylinders the better the seat! You won’t be disappointed if you work it!
-
You could take out a second mortgage possibly buddy ! Some things are more important! Regardless the price!😂😂
-
Yup and change the transmission oil asap
-
Yes ! Depending on your work you may not need it!coolant is not good on synchros just do it ! Don’t dead head the lines join them so the oil can circulate!
-
K so a picture of the valve cover and the back of the fuel pump would help!
-
Good find looks in decent shape! V8 ?
-
I was never offered schooling ! None of the dealers I have worked for could afford to pay to send folks and when they did it was never a hands on guy! I just sucked it up and fumbled thru! Was just expected to get it done! I work for Mack Canada , and 4 other dealerships over the years! Exposed to lots of other makes also the just fix it aditude !
-
I have done a fare few also I was schooled by the hard knocks university! Just the odd proper. Tool and other wise had to get by on intuition! And luck! 😂
-
this is a dynatard! You won’t be skidding any tires with it !😂🙄
-
Nope ! It’s just an opinion or a thought! And always welcomed! 👍
-
questionable!
-
So bro no got!
-
you can do that best to go thru a clutch switch thou!
-
You would have to be carefull not to distort the housing while cutting! duno if it would work! you also have to have room to work the adjusting nut on the carrier bearing!
-
1/2 inch will work 5/8 or 3/4 would be best! ! We did have that tool it was very valuable ! It would guaranty the ears would fit the housing! with out it it was a crap shoot! after setting the preload you could verify you had a fit by lightly turning the tool on the diff If it was tight you could take a brass or aluminum drift and wack the caps to get the cleacance to move the ring! Defiantly a must have!
-
I have a peice of aluminum to jam the gears for that job as we did not have that tool!😡another bush just ge it done thing on my part!
-
Reverse light switch!?
-
I would take an eaton over a Mack trans any day ! That said what is the cost of the swap bell housing an drive line alteration ect!
-
R700. 325 ! 865 V8 was a maxidyne as well and more likely!
-
Fuel and air (turbo)
-
correct! It came as a 400 hp usually with a trans with less gears because of its huge torque curve ! This will pull its heart out down to 1000 RPM or lower! you could use a 6 speed trans and the engine would still perform !
-
Yup better to know where u stand ! Do it once and be done with it!
