Think you'll have to have it flashed at the dealer

You have E7400 maybe not e6 big waste of money in my opinion more feasible to instal mack V8

Check your coolant level

Was the oil pedestal removed there's several different gaskets for diffrent applications?was the oil cooler cleaned properly from the first engine failure?

And low oil preasure high temp as intermitant as yours is it's Likley low coolant as macpro mentioned

Well then if etemps are low and your positive the throttle is going to full on and the stop full off you got good fuel preasure give the pump a tweak.

Whats wrong with the Mack 13spd if you don't mind me asking?
For the Eaton you can use either aluminum or cast iron bell housing with the correct clutch release. You will probably need a longer prop shaft as well.
The cost of repair is whats wrong is the cost of repair is out to lunch Mack /volvo don't want you to fix things just by new stuff! An eaton is half the cost of the mack trans to overhaul parts Are half the cost of mack parts ! In some defence kw freightliner or pete are no better! Anything dealer specific bend over!

Yup the injectors likly took out the dpf

In my opinion ya need to get hooked up ad do a compression test ( cyl balance ) etc as much as you would like to avoid the shop you need th bite the bullet and do it could still be a wiring harness or a bad valve not unheard of, and

If the eup swap did not move to the other cyl you either have an injector issue OR a bad valve if its a bad valve you will have blu white smoke
Pull the injector have it tested! your smoke color sounds injectorish!
You can also swap the injectors hole to hole to prove it out!

Last one I had was on my MH which used the same one as a CL and if I recall I m pretty sure I had to buy the whole slave cylinder for the pedal because they didn't sell a kit anymore that was about 12 years ago . I think I still have a couple used ones not much to them inside just a couple o rings should be able to find o rings somewhere that will match up. Mack has just gotten terrible with anything V8 related . Went to my dealer yesterday to price a crankshaft gear cam gear and seals gaskets and a damper for one of mine they wher just out to lunch . What they were able to fix bs on the computer was priced just totally retarded. Already found a couple other sources so I guess I won't be buying from my Mack dealer .
There intent is to make the old mack stuff unreachable buy pricing it out to lunch make it go away ! The dealer is only part to blame their pricing to the dealer is ridiculous as well the dealer is just passing the gouge on! Look else where! Best aftermarket mack parts is PAI in my opinion! excellent pricing compared to the volvo criminals Even for MP and volvo trash parts. AND better warranty!

your tool from the inlet sounds like it worked fine a 4 inch piece of 3- 4 inch exhaust pipe ( depending on your cooler) caped off and drilled and taped for 1/4 inch pipe thread and a pressure reg set to 40 psi will do the trick
Good known gauge!
you can also make the cap not drill it and back feed from where the puff limiter is installed !
once you ares sure its tight then we can talk twisting the dogs tale some more!
Just some ideas to giter done!

For logging, you'll likely be looking for a CV713 AI460. Very sluggish power wise. Durable yes, powerful not so much!

E9 head gasket failure after 2500 miles?
in Engine and Transmission
Posted · Edited by fjh
Well if this indeed is the case its to late torquing will do little! Nail it down to which head if it is indeed a head gasket take the head off and look for the issue possibly a low liner!
