fjh replied to Outbehindthebarn's topic in Engine and Transmission
your 285 Air to air will work just fine in my opinion they took it right up to 315 with that set up! -

What HP Is your engine? the water over air Usually came with a 350! Sorry Can't remember how it was plumbed! I Don't really see the benefit anyway! -

That year of engine would simply have a throttle and dash switch IS it dynatard or JAKE ? The original dynatard setup would work best for this it is normally activated by engine RPM! Gear down would be how ever the trany is regulated .

What year

The mack would look good with a scania V8 under the hood anyway !

Is this a 2 valve Dynatard engine? (See Photo)
fjh replied to Outbehindthebarn's topic in Engine and Transmission
Its dynatard A jake would have a spacer between the valve cover and the head! -
Drill it and drive a roll pin in! make sure your not to close one of the nut drive lugs when you drill and it will be fine.close it back up

You would be going backwards with mp 10 Check PAI For A kit decent pricing on a full kit!

There have been some issues with the engine brake Valve from time to time!

Unfortunately chances are the def is not injecting properly and needs repair anyway its only a matter of time that the crystal build up will choke off the exhaust anyway ! if the speed sensor disconnect works bite the bullet and get it in there!
-
Def tank full ??? If the truck is standard try unpluging the speed pu on the trans this will get you to the dealer a little faster 5 mph it is a bit ridiculous they have a derate set so low ! and dangerous if your on a freeway!

Go around and tighten ALL the hose clamps on the charge air and compressor inlet pipes
-
Cause it costs them money! I guess!

Thanx for the UPDATE post MP Hope Your Correct ! The injector cup issue is still in the mix in my opinion if they are using cam contact to build pressure at least now it will only be three injector cups to fuss over! and the separate internal Wiring is a true bonus! However Time will tell! Hopefully we will have something to be proud of once again! MAYBE!?

The 12 sp held up behind Freakin Cranked up V8 No problem in that sense it would be fine in my opinion how ever the mount on the engine would put extra stress on the trans bellhousing area that might be an issue! If your looking for more gears you have the option of a Aux trans but you need to be carefull the engine ECU needs to be tweaked to accept the use of the extra gears!

Beneath the oil cooler there is a funny looking hose we call it the elephant hose that hose has a screen in it drain the coolant and check that screen it may b plugged!

Im an old school guy Give me camel back any day Over any air or block set up How ever I ain-t driving it I just work on the stuff!

2011 MP8 Lightning bolt and Evaluating DEF ECM-4094-1
fjh replied to c-mac's topic in Engine and Transmission
If it is exhibiting the long crank times and the normal injector cup symptoms definitely go there, the last one we had like this was the old style coolant cooled 7th injector leaked coolant over a long period of time it biult up powder from the coolant as well on the dpf -
Also if you have the under hood inlet air flap valve check that its not stuck open!

fjh replied to c-mac's topic in Engine and Transmission
So just and update to my comment, after taring into the dpf we found residue from coolant the (unit has also poor starting symptoms) (Injector cups) AGAIN forth set for the unit this is the first unit to clog up the dpf with coolant from an injector cup issue for us however Im sure there are more out there so beware yet another symptom of the ongoing injector cup battle! -
E7 454 VMAC1 blowing black smoke like a chimmney
fjh replied to Elitedownunder's topic in Engine and Transmission
That collapses is common ! caused by turbo lag however they should suck in a bit then inflate , you should be sure the filters are clean and installed correctly and yup that coolers a good suspect! -
Just the raydan not the one you have pictured there as I I said the air ride front is quite complex However the ride quality is good a bit on the sqishy side As with any air ride the shocks have to be kepted up on !We have sold mixers a few with the raydan and most often the AMS40T2 ! Both work OK from a customer stand point Usually A simard install If I was doing it I would go for spings stability wise I think having a dump on total air you would feel horribly tippy when dumping Mixers dont have 20 feet of material in the air.
-
I'm not hot on the raydan front like the spring set up better the front bag set up is too tecky Use the kiss theory works best !
-
We have dozens of raydan here it's ok real fussy to set the ride height raydan both ends? As with almost any dump you'll need to dump the bags to get the load off. We have a half dozen twinsteer mixers with it here no complaints.
