Terry check out the video highly doubt salvage! 30 thou min turn! My opinion!

Check out the posted video bro!

You got to buy the tube! Egr cooler leaking ?check it first !

me too! Total bummer!

By look of the rod video That one rod had nothing left done like dinner me thinks! Just bad news all around!

Yuck !😡that’s bad news bro! I have never seen a cruise liner powered by anything other than a Mack engine! That doesn’t mean it was a given! I would imagine they a scarce as hens teeth there! You can put anything in anything if you got the time and money! The problem mainly is the front mount set up!

Yup ! So Nate what’s going on? Should have the pan off by now!

Let us know if you’re fix works!

Sorry to hear bro ! Unfortunately your in the years where they may have been experimenting with two piece pistons pull the pan and up root the pistons! This first try at this didn’t work well for mack you may have a broken piston skirt !The lash you show in the second vid is normal on an engine brake engine! Let us know what you find!😡

Oh ya! 😡 Found a gusher with this setup! By the way this is not my set up how ever he is a member here I have been helping him with his issue in this case lots of smoke lacking boost!

If. You don’t have smoke most likely a fuel issue just sayin

Electric fuel pump! Likley not because of the year! That said the lda ont the top rear may be at issue here! Let us know!

Sorry just noticed year is it vmac ? If not check throttle lever for going full on and stop for full on!

Terry ! runs good not smoking out anything

what trans do you have and do you have any fault lights ? If no faults and If You have a Mack trans >try disconnecting the torque limit switch on the rear of the trans

Me thinks the crank is the same the pistons may be not!

Well in My mind you either got to check the fuel pressure Or get out the Parts Canon your choice! You need to get facts ! Or just start throwing things at it and hope! If you are also dealing with a miss or partial miss there is a possibility of a broken EUP Spring! Just sayin!

A more car like interior! Great!

Yup check that ! Any other symptoms? Smoke ? Color of smoke at what rpm ect all help with diagnosis!

Yup that would be interesting too know ! That type of pulse timing set up is meant for timing on the fly by turning the pump I believe! Can’t see it being helpful other than not removing the delivery valve! Be alright to check accuracy I would guess! I get the hassle on the RS rad is dam close to the damper on these where the RD the rad is lifted! Good access to the crank bolt!

Sorry bro I have never used the timing tool you speak of!I have on Ambac always set them by spill or blow ! I remove the delivery valve set close to the desired number and then back up the engine a tad then pull it back to to check the set! I ran into this once on a v8 the pump shop swore it was to be set at 19 I could not make it clean up after trying several times! I finally got pissed off an set it to 22 which made it run clean an pull good! I blow time ! (A rubber hose on the inlet of the pump) not sure how you’re doing it! I suggest you jump the timing up the way you’re doing it ,three degrees or so and see if it helps things! Some of the older engines went as high as 30 degrees! just me!

Thanx ! Post if the fix works so others can benefit by your experience!👍 Remember to put the engine on its timing mark before you pull the pump!

We really need to have this procedure posted near the batteries on the truck somehow. You Bet! And stock up on them capacitors Heins Gona need em! Tow only Vehicle ! put the drive shaft on a Zipper or Velcro!

Air ride suspension? Check ride height!

Fortunately I didn't have to sleep on it ! The beer set my mind straight I guess!
