Its a funny looking ford axle nut! if your lucky enough to miss drilling in the wrong spot on the nut it is maybe a good bandaid! If you happen to drill on one of the socket notches your in the same ball park! And going to loose the game anyway! This problem should have been addressed by fixing it properly how ever these guys chose this bandaid route ! the nut should have been pined or staked from the get go on assembly! Volvo should have had there asses sued off over this ! don't know how they dodged around it! I guess it wasn't chronic enough to gain traction Or not enough big name fleets had issues!

fuel pressure cam be another issue with these ! how ever the smoke is not a good thing! the face plug idea is valid but usually a crack with this!

Not a guru on this however It sounds like you have a crack in the dPF there should not be any smoke! Think you need to pull it and inspect!

There was only a short period where Mack offered Vendor engines ! The Kt was very close to loaded weight on a 12000 pound axle! We sold only one of these it was A 525 ! There were several 8 92 detroits sold here and quite a few 3406 went out as well ! I have seen a a Man in a Mack Think maybe it was a transplant not sure ! And also Scania was offered as a low horse power option back then as well! -
have you tried swapping relays around one may be stuck on!

yup joey I guess I have to get into the habit of pulling it out and starting it every couple of months! these storms haven't come often but when they do they kick the hell out of things for the hydro dudes! last big storm was 2 to three years back and we were out for 3 days! soon after that I bought this gen and only used it the once after that!
