Up till last year I have always worked in a shop that let us make the calls it would horrible to have to work in that environment ! They hired a micro manager last year and that made my decision to retire! Done! Don’t need this shit! Just drives away customers!

Guys you’re at risk of breaking the block on e6 if you try drag much more from it! Ambac pump is easy to crank up how ever you run the risk!350 is it’s limit! There was a reason E7 came about!

All good anything I can past on I do! The intermittent nature of this issue makes me think this is what is going on how ever can’t rule out the skirt issue unless you look! They usually didn’t live long but there still maybe the odd engine out there with these pistons! Your no slouch in the info department your self ! I also enjoy reading the posts you make ! A Wealth Of info ! If it helps anyone here its a bonus!

Guess anything is possible joe how ever I highly doubt his cam button has become worn! It’s easy enough to set think it’s a half turn loose idea! The older engines you could take the big bolt off the side of the transfer pump and detention the spring with an extra washer ! I suggested the extra gasket cause chances of finding an extra washer for that bolt would be slim to none these days! As for the button it’s an easy check for sure!chances are the bearings on the fuel pump cam are worn some and he has some deflection of the cam caused by the pump! Causing a fuel knock on cylinder 1 !
-
Another thing you could try is putting an extra gasket under the fuel transfer pump to lessen the side load of its cam shaft !

Be careful! on this ! Mack played about with 2 piece pistons in the this era the skirts can break up! Pull the pan and look at the piston skirts on the cyl you suspect!

The wires will be there and if they are shorted to each other, the computer would think it was in low range and hold back on fuel! No Codes Nothing ! cause all is normal in the Brain It would see nothing wrong with the situation!

I'm leaning to a fuel or programing issue how ever the above should defiantly be checked! What computer type stuff if any do you have access to read codes and look at parameters are you able to get too! (Interested in switch status for torque limit and min max governor settings!) EUP The code is maxed out May help to change it However ! you should install the Cal code if you change it and for that you need a computer if you have the computer hooked up you may just as well look at perimeters! Just sayin!

😍 Yup Also check Fuel pressure If you can ! R.E.D Great Minds! 😄 Tank Vent as well ! do All the cheap and easy stuff first changing EUPs is a last thing! Boost sensor Ambient air sensor if it has one! All cheap and easy stuff among all the stuff Joe has suggested! Another thought check the Engine ECU Plug wires for coolant push! Unclip them and look inside!

Lot of Case Here! John Deere some CAT AND A little JBC! Latley bobcat is stepping up ! And of coarse the China and Korean Stuff Dosan ect! Of Coarse the dealers snap up the machines and double the price ! Got to find a private sale some where! $40-50 grand for a 9000 hr machine that could have had a breaker attachment mounted to it for its whole life don't excite me much!

I knew the history, so to me the purchase was easy.. exactly

Thanx for your input Joe! The deal here is everyone is asking around 40-50000 for these so don't know how to feel ! I got a couple of customers that have just traded theirs last year they were tring to beat the next tier emissions!If I Had the cash at that point I would have saved them there tradin BS but weren't ready at that point! I would have got a Machine I would have had history on! Even if the hours were big! I would have felt safe cause I've had them work for me and knew they serviced shit!

So Guys ! I'm looking for a used Backhoe to work on my property here ! Seeing alot of hoes being traded in @ about 9000 hours ! Mostly CASE Some DEERE Few CATS! Want a 4X4 so looking a construction type machine with 4 in one and quick change buckets! Is 9000 hrs the worn out number on hoes? Appreciate Thoughts here!
-
Give us more info! Model of the truck and trans! Any fault light on? Changed fuel and air filters lately? Don't mean to be ignorant but you need to provide info to get info!
-
Yup I reluctantly agree ! Love em or hate em the Volvo turds keep people working and have kept food on my table since the 2001 plus! The Mack brand has put food on my table for 40 plus years so I shouldnt bitch too loud that said ?I am now retired and Have more time to Bitch about stuff Now!🤣

I have seen very few Cranks broken Maybe half dozen over the period of 45 years ! We had a V8 drive into the shop with the crank broken in half once ! Remarkable actually! , Seen several E6 cranks broke Damper issues Mainly! can't recall any E7 cranks breaking however I sure it happens! Ive heard The Cat 3408 V8 used to break Cranks on a regular basis ! That said ! is not an eye witness account !
