Struth thats a interesting state of affairs

Wouldn't have thought it would be cheap or quick to fix 

Paul

The electricity is kinda a must have these days 

Best get it sorted

Mind you,  as Joey suggests, they arent that dear to buy new these days

I do like my old CS Listers, still made new today in India 

 CS is cold start

Start them when it's freezing with a crank handle just fine

They do about 650 rpm full noise

They had them on farms all over Australia, right up into the 90's in the more remote regions and probable still do have them

They just chug away 

I had 2 cylinder ones on 8 inch irrigation pumps, chug chug chug, 24 hours a day 

Twice a day pull the rocker cover off and squirt some more oil in

They are good motors and diesel as well 

Paul 

Give me a few days and I'll see what I can find for you

Interesting pic Paul.The Puff Limiter on our EM6 is leaking air from a small hole on the cylinder thats screwed into the injector pump.see photo.We're told this cylinder cant be overhauled.We blocked off the air line from the valve on the inlet manifold to stop the leak....

Paul

Do you want me to see if I can get you one of these new and pop it in the mail to you ?

I have done things like this before for people on here

Australia seems to have better access to this stuff new than the U.S.

Paul

Yes the replacement from PAI is fine

There is a gasket, or is it a '0' ring ??

Dunno it's been years now since I have had one apart 

I find the holding clamp comes undone when driving down the road 

Try doing it up a little tighter and it strips

Anyway the long and the short of it is I cracked the shits and make up my own clamp and it never comes undone

Do you know where those air lines from the puff limiter go?  

Sorry, I thought I explained that 

The one with the badly drawn red circle goes to the little air ram on the injector pump that limits travel until you get boost or are out of reverse and 1st gear

The green line goes to the fear box, reverse and 1st gear doohickie

The uncircled line is the air supply to the puff limiter doohickie 

To be honest I only looked at these for a few minutes and relied on my memory 

Paul

Mate I dunno, if it was made, it can be over hauled

I dunno, I'll have a hunt around for a E6 manual

I think it will be only a crook o ring

More stuff I found about the mystery tube: 

 

On pages 17/18 it shows this threaded hole 

Sorry I hope I didn't highjack your thread too much! What were we talking about again? Something about a boost gauge? lol

That's perfect for me, I picked up a set of Jakes for mine maybe 12 months ago

No paper work until today

Thank you 

Paul 

But wait theres more

So were do these air lines go

Green circled airline goes to the gear box, reverse, first 

Red circled airline goes to the injector pump rack

Now crusieliner 64 Paul 

This looks like a simple piston type of deal, I can see bleed holes etc to let air out and or in

Yours should be a piece of piss to fix over a few pints of your favourite larger

Bellow is the air line to my boost gauge

Hang on I'll zoom in on this 

Dunno if any of this helps, bit old mate the sorted your motor has jiggered up the plumbing department 

Licensed to thrill your missing a (as the younger set say out here) "a shit ton of boost"

I wonder if the breather is for a cab over type of deal, possibly a garbage truck 

Dunno if this helps or not

But everything is a bonus 

While sorting the pics I spied this a wee distance away 

Yeah a boom of a crane, woopty bloody do Paul

Okay a bit more, fresh meat lol

Not a cool power, but still cool enough

Paul

Okay, a cracker of a day so had a captain Cook

Now remember my truck has the steering wheel on the correct side unlike the U.S. trucks 

I only mention this because our trucks might be plumbed a little different 

The breather on the rocker cover on mine has no holes for hoses, it does have spots cast into it

and the casting numbers

Thanks. If your engine dies NOT have that hose I would be interested in what it has in the two ports that this hose is useing. 

I finished late last night and it was pissing down with rain this morning 

I'll check tonight and report back, if mine doesn't have the hose I'll check my mates as his R600 has never been apart from new, only 400,000 km from new, still very original

This is a 1980 vintage E-350 econodyne. Pretty common engine so there should be someone with one that could compare. The guy I got the engine from was kinda haywire so no telling what may have been changed. I bought the engine trans (twin stick 6 speed) out of the same truck as a unit only to discover much later that the engine being an econodyne snd the trans a maxi torque that they are not compatible. 

I will have a look tonight and see what I find

Will report back 

P

Correct, first and reverse 

Paul

If it's any consolation, Mazda gearboxes have been crap since they first arrived in this wide brown land

Even today they still don't have their shit sorted

Dunno how to put it politely, Mazda make shit transmissions, rest of the car/SUV/ute is fine

Paul

Also stops the diesel washing the oil fron the bores and extends engine life

It does make them less revy and slower to respond until boost developed, however the benefits out way the apparent increase in performance

Think ole mate got creative with the polish while pulled up short of the pads waiting out the scalies.

This may well be the case, I dunno, it gave me a chuckle 

Paul

Yep, nailed it 🦘

They pulled them (weeping willows) out in Australia as the choke our stream and rivers

We had them on the farm but drought and laser leveling sorted them out 

That's the go
