  1. Rob it may have a plate type cooler Not quite as simple as an oring job but almost! Would be guessing at the cooler as the failed part thou!
  2. You da man http://www.tractordata.com/farm-tractors/000/1/7/176-allis-chalmers-d21-engine.html Now all I need it the injection timing and that aint no big deal I can wing that if I have too!If I couldn't find nothing I was going to set the valves @ 10 just cause I'd rather have something rather than nothing! Pump Should be coming back Tuesday! Cool Thanx Bro!
  3. Thanx John Quite possible The engine is not in a truck or tractor, its in a Genset, I'm not sure of its HP but your description looks close ,6 Cyl turbocharged ,I got chucked in the middle of the job cause the younger ones only now the computerized things,Anyway while removing the valve cover to verify just where the engine was in its cycle I noticed that the valves are very tight And would like to verify the proper set on these before I reinstall the lid as the parts are extremely hard to buy for this thing we had to buy a whole engine rebuild kit to get a valve cover gasket for it.
  4. As my topic suggests I'm looking for valve set specs for this engine ! I am currently working on this engine and have determined it needs a valve set as it has no valve lash to speak of at the moment. I have the fuel pump off as well at the moment being, rebuilt It would be nice to get the timing number on this unit as well, if there is anyone here on the site with some specs on this I really would like to hear from ya When I removed the pump I set the engine on 25 deg btc and the drive key was at 12 oclock when the drive gear was removed! Thanx! Fred
  5. Amen! 31 psi out of a truck that old is hoggwash!We had (stock units) of that era cranking 40 psi! these wore all mack drivline and were allowed the XT data file at the time! Likly nowhere to be found now!
  6. If Your engine is an EGR engine By all means replace the lines! Its actually the law in Mack land! You can sumtimes get away with it But Its not worth the chance .
  7. OK Men we got the 1850 in there and havent heard from the Rodent Man So I'm Hopen we put this issue to bed! This Was yet another lesson in reman clutches for our parts guys which they likley will NOT learn from!
  8. I don't remember the specs for that but I would guess somwhere in the hood of 50 foot pounds they are 7/16 bolts! DON'T REUSE that damper REPLACE IT if that came loose out of the blue somthing is wrong and its likly the damper its self!
  9. DOT Requirment here in canada is 60-90 psi in 3 minutes!As far as I am concerned even that is to slow.

  11. Well I hope Christmas brings Her A huge Present! And you both can move on in a more pleasant manner Bro! I 'm sure GB is Just Truckin.
  12. Hey 68 He, mentioned he had no black smoke I was thinkin a fuel input issue! Do you have any intermitant or consistant Codes??
  13. what trans do you have? If it Is a Mack trans check to see the torque limit is un pluged that will cut your boost in half instantly.
  14. WHAT HE SAID!
  15. The most common failure on these is the fuel pump switch or the above mentioned tab on older models! On The switch style one the cable is ussually what causes the problemYou may have to add and extra spring to the lever.
  16. I agree , Hes givin ya straight goods,If Ya got the money DO as as hes says duratlite If not, don't waste the money that is not a a bad leak It really has to be a gusher before it will affect performance!
  17. If Your truck still hass the inline fuel pump on it!I would suspect the fuel pump pins first off !Try unpluging and replugging the fuel pump plug a couple of times and see if this changes your situation!It can possibly be the fuel pump itself but try this first!
  18. In My H,O As long as your 350 engine was a vmac engine what you want to do should work ,scrutinize All the bolt locations and oil and coolant locations and make sure everything is there for your application including the water pump and oil cooler mounting! Just my 2 cents
  19. Leaky liners!Ya need to pull the pan and see where the coolant is coming in at Chances are good the liners Are leaking with miles like that!
  20. WE allready had that with his first clutch! We have the 1850 on order! This has been a real pain to say the least the gurus at the spicer hot line were of no help either.
  21. I hope that was good building Grade lumber wouldn't wan't that to fall off!
  22. The best gauge of worn out ling and drums is a cam rotation !Back the brake off till the slack pulls away from the brake pot.mark the cam and turn the slack back till ith shoes are tight to the drum if the rotation goes past 90 degress of rotaion the lining is border line but still OK If the rotaion aprotches 120 deg of rotaion the lining and possibly the drum are done!Time to replace! Anything after 120 is pushing a cam over situation!
  23. Ya ! WHAT HE said! http://www.nortrux.ca/index.php?page_id=1033
  24. What did that wire control?
  25. Sorry to hear that bro I hope things go better for ya ! Can't really help sell your rig for ya ,all I can do is offer prayers And wishes!
