Wohoo progress on a all fronts, Charlie You need to tone down your going to jinks your self.

How late is late model?In the newer program a Mack dealer has a calibrate throtle screen has this been done?Also in the programing there is some settings You need to have the throtle setting min/max ticked in the throtle options Not All speed !This ussually corects these problems.

Your stuck with the mack motor as stated the cl is the only mack with Other engines Cummins only.Cat is a fine motor up to the point of twin turbo!If its going to be the mack your choises are limited.
-
The problem with these is they pop and bang going around corners!If you happen to have this setup in a fire truck or somthing packing big weight all the time its a pain!The other down fall being you need to run even tires!
-
your Its the best way to deal with it!I pretty much do this each time cause we have to warrenty what we do! It pays to take the time in my case!It looks like such a simple jobTo, but can be a PIA if you dont take the time!

Hey Ed I have found it best to put two orings on that one in the groove one above,( I'm not positive of the number) Also have found that you pretty much got to remove the fill tube from the block and start from scratch to aline everything properly And to be double sure I fill the cavity above the oring with hi heat! silcone Tighten turbo drain and block bolts lightly till seated then snug up! Just an observation!

Behr Fan And Electronic Modulating Fan Drive
fjh replied to MackJohn's topic in Electrical, Electronics and Lighting
Hi John! If you can 't turn the fan by hand its Seazed!You will need to replace it!The wires control what it does when its working correctly If you can't turn it a little by hand its not working corectly! -
No once the relay kit is installed and the switch is replaced if needed then the repair is complete!The relays take the heat off the switch. As for fuel lines on an aset the fuel line is to be replaced when ever you have to replace a fuel pump as a saftey procaution!Fuel line problems were another common issue 2004- 2006!Safety campainWe now have a handle on that as well! Its along story ! C.Y.A. Thing now!Change the fuel line if you disturb it period!
-
Most of this stuff comes down too!HOW MUCH MONEY YOU got! You can put a square peg in a round hole if you work at it long enough. Is It worth it????
-
sorry chuck would you have to change heads? Nope!
-
Nope!

Recalls (saftey issues )are not up dates! The exhast gaskets are not recalls they are only required if they fail!If they fail under warrenty mack pays If they fail after you pay! Requirmenst of sale IF you purchase the truck Would have to be> Uppdated exhast Gaskets and studs ,new belts and tensioners as needed! My opinion.
-
Yup That a boy Kev Jump in with both feet bud! We can use all the help we can get!
-
like I said not a week end project!
-
yup herb HK about all to look for on 06 is belts and belt tensioners and exhast gaskets check to see if it has the latest gasket and stud arrangment. MOST other stuff has been dealt with for the most part! Again look at the forums you'll see the things the guys have been chasing!The truck your looking at looks like a cherry unit as newer trucks go!
-
Robert I would get the history on the truck if you can and post it! We need to see what has been done! Having said that look thru the posts on this forum reguarding 2004-2006 units that will give you a rough Idea of the things guys have be struggling with keeping in mind 2006 is a good year or as good as it gets year to buy unless you go to the new after treat engine. In 2006 MOST of all the stuff that could go wrong was dealt with ,how ever it is still not going to be a pre 2000 reliable unit Talk to Herb!
-
There is more to this than what you Think! Rad, after coole,r fan, fan shroud yada yada !Thats the short list! NOT A WEEK END PROJECT!
