CAM ROLLER! You have a cam job to do my friend! you changed the compressor ? then it sounds like you thought the sound was near that area,Likly one of #no 3or4 cam rollers has failed. pull the pan and look as 68 has said!
-
Thanx!
-
Hows the air filter? Do you have boost leaks ? Does the truck smoke while under load?
-
Good work! Your welcome ! were here to help if we can!

Mack/volvo is a united nations truck mostly anyway!The parts come from where ever they can get em cheapest!NO diffrent than ANY other maker in the bizz!Were just lucky they still assemble them here,See how long that lasts!
-
>So maybe fjh is on to something with the hub Gambi the truck we were having problems with was wagon wheels (spokes ) Not Hub pilot! Not saying it cant happen but less likly!
-
Good to hear! I would like to know what throtle response setting they messed with?We always set the torque setting to max before they left the shop!The Program >Because of the way the engine is set up the more fuel you pour in at the begining, the more smoke you get at take off the air isn't there to mix it with with it.Unfourtunatly,adding more fuel at that point will give you a bit better responce at a fuel cost!As long as your happy thats good.

I beleive its a ch 613.Nice unit! Skunky fuel is about all I can think of! Looks like they bit using it so that would be a non issue. you need to trade???

fjh replied to fvea's topic in Air Systems and Brakes
welcome to the site three sensors just behind the clutch pedal i beleive youll find one operates the light and buzzer -
I agree to a point!Trading down maybe counter productive trade wise is all! And the truck hes looking at has most of the problems delt with! duno hard call.
-
Yup welcome aboard! Watch and read hope ya can make a diffrence bro! there are others here from your end here as well read in particular the closed corperate fourm some of us guys there could really benifit from having some inside advice if you can supply it On the mp stuff!
-
Unfortunatly that happens alot!the Aset turned quite a few guys to the dark side,The grass is always greener on the other side! everyone else has there problems too, there aint no perfect solution. check out the horror stories from other sites cummins has there egr problems as well, cat aint in the running anymore for the time being Binder has there set of problems,and detroit the same, aint nothing going to be perfect!Like I said before the engine is pretty much reliable now for the most part! Your call!Not ours.

Rocker bolts are easy! called The owner yet?
-
Yup not nice!Did the problem go away for a bit after the seals?Air filter new?Runing temp is 180 is it getting there?If your idleing lots that dosent help things. How much oil does it use?All diesel engines need to work hard to stay tight no load on em is not good.
-
Me too!Some what easier to work on too!

I Want To Buy This 9194 Cl713 E9 Dump Truck
fjh replied to plrodarte's topic in Modern Mack Truck General Discussion
If the engine has say 15000 hours on it, it has lots of life left!Providing its a stockfuel setting , Ive have seen em live250000- 300000 hrs no problem you could roll in a set of mains and rod bearings and it will live for alot longer.Bearing job 10 to 12 hours labor + parts. -
Oooh ya, fergot about rocker bolts!That didnt seem to be as bad on AC as it was on AI, fan hubs? Guess a guy could go on and on about intermitant things that fail. Like I said its a crap shoot, luck of the draw.So like 68 has said go those few items maybe and hope for the best. Duno

I Want To Buy This 9194 Cl713 E9 Dump Truck
fjh replied to plrodarte's topic in Modern Mack Truck General Discussion
Milage/ Hours ???Nothin wrong with a V8 won't likly ever need a rebuild doing dump work! -
Check thru the springs if you can see if the valve seals have creaped up!We had some heads rebuilt at a local shop and shortly after the customer complained the truck would load up while idling the seals were creaping up on several valves they were able to fix this on the truck. Also make sure your air cleaner is clean!
