  1. One reason I like old trucks vs new.

    Mercedes semi truck fuse box on the left (one of many in the truck)...... my new harness and fuse box for my Mack on the right.

    Yes I ordered the all black harness from E-Z Wiring as I think it will look cleaner installed. It is screen print labeled every 6 inches so identifying wires is simple. I said to myself for under $200 why mess with old questionable wiring.

  2. It had really really old green it it when I got it so when I drained to to replace the water pump, thermostat and all the hoses I replaced it with fresh new green. I also got the largest coolant filter with conditioner they had it has 12 oz or so conditioner. What will I hurt if I use this set up for a while before draining and changing over to red coolant?

  3. I just dropped off all the old rusty fuel lines and had the new ones made to match. I had a local industrial hose supplier make them from top of the line materials, way over kill but I would rather not worry about a hose failure.

    I couldn't find any type of kit for them.

  4. That is what I am working on but my parts stores are not the greatest.

    A second question is there such a thing as to much conditioner in a coolant system?

    I ask because the filter I have hopefully narrowed it down to comes in multiple heights and conditioner content from 4.8 oz to 14.4 oz.

  5. I am having issues finding a replacement coolant filter for my 237. The one that came off it is to rusted to see any part numbers. The issue is I tried the Mack 25MF435B (WIX 24428) which has smaller threads than the WIX 24429 yet the threaded hole is still to large.

    Was there an even smaller threaded coolant filter for some of these engines? If so anyone have a part number?

    Thanks
