You should get it squared up however you need the boring tool ! I Urge you inspect that bore closely sand or emery cloth wire wheel it and inspect specially in the areas where the block casting is narrow under the liner lip!
-
Note !! if you dropped a seat you need to check the turbo!!! An Old saying for a Dropped valve seat = minum fix will be Piston ,liner , head , turbo . This used to be a fairly common failure!

Agree with that statement Post Your fixes Guys, What ever you working on ,It helps everyone ! and it saves us repeating ourselves ! Also I have seen ECUs that fail under temperature conditions as well The rack actuator condition Mack teck has mentioned is the most common also repining the pump plug sometimes cures this issue!

This is a problem that can be repaired How ever you have to have the tooling!! Google OTC Counterbore cutting tool ! there (were) shims available ! I would also look closely For a crack on that bore aswell ! Clean it up and inspect it with a magnifying glass! Cracks tend to appear near the 3 to six position and where there is less casting in the block under the liner how ever not always! The bearing issue you speak of is less problematic than coolant push which often accompanies a cracked counter bore or Cracked liner Which by the way I also have seen!

E9 head gasket failure after 2500 miles?
fjh replied to wrenching4life's topic in Engine and Transmission
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! -

My guess would be a manifold gasket -
Check the yoke output bolt it may be loose other wise your off to the shop to have the back section repaired
-
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?
-

95 ch600 electronic malfunction

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.

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!

Yup just hollow out the packer take all of it wire and both ecu s
-
Just Finished a V8 build in January We used PAI kit Very complete kit Half the price of the mack stuff and twice the warranty!
-
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!
-
Yup me too however ,this being an intermittent miss makes me doubt ! vthings happen thou
