  1. Yup I Can Be just sad working on it!😑 And Glad I don't own it!πŸ˜‚ Sounds like a decent unit you bought smart move! But However you can think about new stuff in another way ,your contributing to the economy keeping the money moving! makes the bankers happy , makes the government happy , what could be better! Your creating jobs for other people! 😎 But Now you've bought an older unit you are cheating those people!! But the government is still happy you'll be able to move thous big piles of money around for them cheaply while all thous other new trucks are in the shop creating jobs for people, Its Very selfish of you really .πŸ™„ NOT VERY NICE! But wise!πŸ˜‰ 😁
  2. HA! Eliminating the distraction of gear changing in diverse driving conditions and environments, the system enables drivers to fully focus their attention on the road. It also removes any performance and efficiency gaps between skilled and less experienced drivers.! My God ! Shifting gears is second nature . TV screens in the Dash Are Distracting! Eliminating the need to train people how to drive .And therefore creating Stupider People! The more tech people rely on the dumber and lazier they will be! WABCO Leader in the creation of stupid! Sorry Guys its true! Just saying
  3. Yup they encourage you to pump that bitch 200 pumps after a filter change! Now you know why ! so they can sell you a whole new expensive housing and 3 hours of labor ! oh joy
  4. Yup Bull ! it seems Very little is standardized they are for ever changing shit on a moments noticed its Rampant thru out the industry ! I was doing a truck inspection on a 2018 Pete the other day and was admiring at the spring brake cans on it You can no longer install a PIGGY back on the new brake pots they are one piece no clamps Period so now instead of 15 min to a half hour to change a brake pot Its now has become necessary to replace the whole thing! AND heaven for bid you have the right clevis for what ever slack adjuster is installed ! Worst of all got me paying attention to our own new trucks AND GUESS WHAT We are using this stuff as well! Nothing is left untouched these days! IMPROVEMENTS ? OR Captivation At Its Finest! So if you got to go out on the road to change a brake pot you better take half the parts department with you cause your gona need something you don't got! As well as a Grinder to adapt the rod bla bla bla ! New Rules of engineering ! Sorry that's an old rule revisited ! If ya got something simple that works ! Redesign it to be over complicated or unreliable !
  5. If you Go By the marks ( marked) = set valves 1-6 5-2 3-4 on the flywheel and use overlap on the opposite cyi for checking your self you will be spot on period!
  6. Jokes on you! I just work on the junk😣 Oh wait no your right the Joke is still on me! 😑
  7. Thanx Pro for the suggestion but Naw! WE will check it again thou it weren't throwing codes for any other vehicle issues only engine emission crap! the last thing was a low pressure issue that has been corrected with the new regulator were now left with this engine brake code ! Start the REGen it ramps up the rpm for minute then gives up in typical fashion and the usual The BLANK STARE from The tech tool! Instead Saying something useful like this regen was terminated BECAUSE BLA BLA! No reason Just gives up! and leaves you guessing Grasping At Straws, Bunch of Crap! ALWAYS leaves you Guessing and throwing Parts at Shit!
  8. Your welcome Bud ! Hopefully All goes well! valve cover usually has the valve adjustments on a tag on one or the other cover! If ya need help we will try to assist! Or Get mad ! πŸ™„πŸ˜
  9. Sorry I was abrasive but follow the directions bring it up to the valve set marks on the flywheel valves on the rock on the opposite cylinder you adjusting 1-6. 5-2 3-4 adjust the valves to 16 intake 24-26 exhaust if it has jakes usually 15 or 22 and as the post above suggest check the rocker shaft for aplugs missing!Hopfully you haven’t ruined it.
  10. Hey Guys anyone Know if A 2018 MR mp7 will hold out on a Regen with an active Engine brake Fault ! WE have been Fighting with this asshole thing for a Week! various Codes all satisfied now! Have replaced ahi , number 7 and the regulator tweeked to over min spec No Rat Chewed Wires, still shuts down on a forced gen 1 minute into it Only fault active is the engine brake! No Brake / Valve in stock! Just asking E service is A joke!
  11. 😣I SAID IT! F@@ksakes!
  12. Agree with tech I would replace all the plastic line in that circuit And the orings on the jumper line between the heads they sometimes cause grief as well!
  13. BUD ! HOW ARE SETTING THESE ?????? they don't set like a Cat or other engines out there!!!!!! You need to set on the Valve set marks NOT TDC ! Not overlap , over lap is close but not perfect . the slack on certain valves is NORMAL if not on the valve set marks! the jake brakes are set on the valve set mark of each cyl Usually 15 to 22 thou! separately while setting the valves 16 in / exhast 24-26 NOT 02- 28 you now may have bent a Valve! Read the A BOOK! Your going to ruin something!!!!!! If you haven't already! firing order 153624 1-6 5-2 3-4 Are sister s these are all on the same stroke as each other but doing a diffrent job!
  14. Please do!
  15. Mike did you get anywhere with this issue?
  16. Check and clean your battery/starter connections Bad grounds do weird things ! Check the cheap and easy stuff first!
  17. K then if the relays got big wires running in and out those are what you need to focus on! power relay #2 look At The chart it traces back to the blower motor!
  18. PLEASE Answer the questions above !!! yes the ecu can effect power But need to address the physical issues first! Its a waste of your/our time Guessing At stuff! NEED FACTS
  19. not sure if they changed this in later years how ever check under that PLASTIC panel Three screws and your there! They may have changed to 4 relays as pictured above but the location will likely be similar!
  20. accessory relay in the dash under the ash trayο»Ώ
  21. Guttless!!! agree with Nelm put a load on see what ya think! The engine is relatively reliable BUT VERY small working rpm how ever. it has an 18 sp so your OK there,, Mack 18 speed trans is temperamental And expensive to fix! AND your fuel mileage will suck as stated! low ball offer if anything! I would shy away thou if I was you!!!! Your call ! Your Just buying a job and some head aches ! My opinion
  22. The blower motor is shutting ? This is a sign that the Accessory relay Is possibly Fubar!
