If it has chassis mounted charge air cooling yup pump and turbo
-
Try the above however have the dealer repin the fuel pump plug if the reprogram dosent work!

Its Experience ! The u pipe on the egr cooler is the likley ( culprit Believe it )! Every one has been burned with it at one point or other!
And yes they sell turbo cap off kit it anit the greatest thing but it does work. we have a home made one that works for all the engines it was built for the asset but it works on all of the engines.

I don't think 350 was oftered as a maxidyne i beleive 300 took the place of the 285 maxidyne. (I could be wrong!) KS would know if he sees this maybe he'll chime in!

Good info bro thanx for posting
way more then you would get from Teck support!
-
Thats A deceant plan!
Just didnt want you to rule it out is all we have chased this many times and alot of times it ends up being the turbo.
-
I beleive you would be throwing up code if that were the case
iif the turbo won't make air the ecm will hold out triggering fuel to number 7 !it will try to regen then stop
-
It Is possible you could have a turbo issue If the turbo won't function correctly (sticking) the ecm ain't going to let the seventh injector have fuel!
And it wont throw a code if the turbo is stuck! They just stick and teck tool is absolutely useless to isolate this problem! you Need to do manual checks. if indeed that is what is happening!

I have done this many times with red and never had an issue ,as long as both peices are clean and dri (hit them with some brake clean) and wipe dri They have stayed in place for me everytime!
-
The gear is helical cut it could float back and forth sum I have never had it happen And it is a long shot in the dark!
your comment about the compressor changing it makes me curious! that is why I sugested it!

Make sure you compare the plunger roller there are to diffrent widths narrow and wide wide will work on both narrow only on narrow

If you tried to pull a load like that here in bc on some of the hills we have here there would be differential parts and Trans parts littering the hyw!

It would be good to check with them we have had a couple of these slip thru the pin campian cracks it happens on MP ten as well, ( No campaign on these) if you have a clattering sound coming from your engine or your compressor comes loose you better ask why! or you may be out 20-30 grand. depending how catastrophic !

Thanks for the replys men To the front it will be then Don't see as it matters how ever I would feel more at eezz having the logo to the missing arrow direction just cause. the PAI dudes teck Guy said it didn't matter but it will look like I was paying attention if they are all one direction and not all over the place!

Well finally got the problem fixed. Congratulations to fjh and steeler. You were right. Even though I didn't want to believe it, it turned out that the number 4 injector was galled and cracked. Also had damaged the injector cup, so had all 6 cups replaced again even though they were replaced about a year ago. This thing has been nothing but a money pit literally since the day I drove it home. But for now it is starting real good. Thanx for everyone's input.
Yup don't thank us thank Volvo for giving you a place to put your money every year!

When you installed the plugs did you install them with locktight ? You cant just pop them back in and expect them to stay!
As for threading them I have never had them fall out twice, but i imagine it would work !
If it happens again install clean and dri with lock tight!

Thanks
The logo on these pistons are at ( appox ) the 3:30 position One would think that would indicate front if it means anything at all!
It's been years since I've built V8. This is A PAI engine kit, Real nice looking kit! The engine packed up #1 rod bearing caught it just in time the rod journal got away with just a polish!

Yup thats worth a try That will at least nail it down to a hole If the smoke dont go away after that u may very well have an ECU issue !
Also if you can, check the ambient air temp if you have a means ,we once had issues with sensor readings coming from that sensor which put the engine in a retarded timing at certain temps! its a long shot but something else to try! un plug the sensor see if the problem clears up!

Guys, I am rebuilding an E9 and the manual claims there is an arrow on the piston indicating front, the new pistons have nothing other than a Mack logo stamped in them on one side ! Is there a front and back or has this become irrelevant As the bowl is central ? The old pistons were the same how ever I neglected to pay attention when I disassembled where the logo faced! if it even maters !?? Any comments welcome!
-
Nothing wrong with that as long is the preassure is not droping off when you rev!
-
Is it still smoking with the gauge in? when you rev it up does the pressure drop off that is the whole point of this exercise! If not your looking in the wrong place!The preasure should drop a tad then jump up with a good stomp on the trottle!

Yup great design features!
Trailer brake lamps staying on help?!
