Oh that's a shame. I am NOT a fan of Pilot.
-
About 4 years ago I running with a friend down 81 in Va. Exit 195? A couple miles off the hwy was a cool truck stop that had toy trucks all around inside the restraunt. Cant remember the name of it.
-
Had to add the Boselman in Ne, Ia. Or they were when I was hauling farm eq out that way 15 yrs ago. Gee, now im starting to feel old
-
These days its hard to beat Dysart's near Bangor. Me. Little pricy but still an "old school" truck stop.
-
LOL. I would gladly take pics. But I am severely electroincly challeneged. I admire those of you who post pics of cool things. The Ex set up our website. That's why that doesn't get updated as often as it should. I have a big computer, scanner, digital camera. Now if I can figure out how to make them talk to each other.

I did get the frame with the heater motors out. FYI. There are 2 screws down low in the front of box that hold duct work together. Now all I need to do is get the squirrel cage off the motor shaft. Allready have the set screw out and sprayed shaft with PB blaster. Keep you updated if you like
-
Just remember with the older 13 spds you don't want to shift the splitter and the lever at the same time when shifting up. You get caught in "double neutral". It's ok to do when down shifting. You will do it a few times then you will decide its not worth stopping to start over at the bottom
-
You folks remember the truck-n-trailer sitting on top of the oil tanks in Fultonville, Ny? There were 2 stuffed characters in the cab. Snowbunnie and fluffie? Thruway mafia made the truckstop take it down.
-
I miss the Green Shingle on I90 just west of Erie, Pa. That was a great stop. The American Travel plaza in Frystown use to be one of my hang outs. Sad to see that the Flying crook aka, Pilot took over. just isn't the same
-
The front fan never works and the wiring to it is melted. Im gonna try again here in a min. It's cold out there and the wind is hollowing.
-
I have the seat and cover off. I was wondering about the frame with the two motors in it. You answered my other question, my feet will be cold when driving it.
-
Ok, I may not be the sharpest tool in the shed BUT. How do you remove the heater motor from an MH? Do they come out together as one unit? If so how do unhook the duct work?
-
Only happens when I use the brake pedal. And not all the time. I was told there is another relay valve in the system under the cab. I haven't found it yet. As my "garage" is my driveway and it colder than zippe doo I haven't been as patient as I should be. They say we're in for a heat wave today, maybe as high as 25. I'll try some more today
-
I oiled the pedal valve. The plunger moves free. Only does it with a trailer on. Doesn't matter what trailer either.
-
I started using my MH. Brakes don't always release when I take my foot off the pedal. Doesn't happen all the just most of the time. I replaced the Tractor Protection valve. What next? The treddle valve?
-
Wow. I thought my moving up a model would mean easier parts availability. It's a pain in the you know what when you cant find the parts you need. Glad my MH didn't sell now that im using it
-
The retainer clip goes over the top part of air bag to hold it in place. Slip says replaces part # 97AX286. $1.15
-
Ya know. with all that chrome & paint you would think they would have at least put bullet cab lights on it
-
Update on airbag. Part # 25498332. They are smaller than the bags I took out. But they do hold the cab up so I guess all is well. Make sure you get part # 25094742 that's the retainer clip. Mack neglected to tell me that on my first bag. $63.78 for the airbag
-
Hmm, ok. Thanks for the reply. The bag looks like it should be for a seat not the cab. Thanks again
-
I bought an air bag for my MH cab recently. It is a great deal smaller than the original. Part # 25498332. Is this correct?
-
Heck they even tolerate us cabover folks. Well most of the time.
-
LOL. Guess you don't have a 13'6" height restriction either. Don't you just love auction moves?! I once got a call from a Ford tractor dealer down in Ma that we hauled for. They sent me up to Presque Isle, Me with just a serial number. When we got there it was a riding lawnmower! Lot of room left over on my 48' drop. Oh well, its all by the mile.

...so much for getting an early start!

Just a thought, but try taking the governor line off the compressor make sure air is flowing at that point. Then you can search farther. A little heat would be helpful. -

Maybe get some Scotch too. Just in case. A little "antifreeze" for you wouldn't be a bad idea. Good luck
