  1. Well I can say my mp8 does not use any oil; put close to 25000 on an oil change & didn't use any; I ran it longer than wanted to
  2. I've never had a parked regen Guess I shouldn't said awful; wasn't hard; just had to get shims & measure & all; when all others I've worked on had the adjusting screws like the intake; injector & brake rocker arms had; didn't mean to offend anyone; just saying if you don't have the $1000.00 shim kit or access to 1 it can be a hassle; individual shims are bout $5 bucks a pc.
  3. Curious have you had any injector or cup problems with the mp10; or is it just mp8 with the problem
  4. That Winfall is a heck of a place; at 10:30 in MS it's dark
  5. Well after reading other post on here found that my truck needed injectors; so I finally did the r&r on injectors & cups; truck runs like a completely different truck; which it should for the price of injectors & tools for the job; wish someone could explain the exhaust valve clearance setting with the shims; seems awful; well I'll wait to see if there is a explanation; luckily found source to get the shims I needed to set them
  6. Liked all his work; Barney Miller show was a good one
  7. Switch might be making a ground instead of having power to it
  8. Those tools are expensive; I found a guy who has a shop & going to borrow them; but before I do this I took my truck to Mack to have them run all the tests the said they needed to do before knowing it was injector problem today & while waiting on my ride I went up in the truckers lounge upstairs with big picture windows looking over the shop; I watched a employee putting injector kit in a garbage truck he didn't waste anytime; cups were already out before I got to the (show) but didn't take but a second in each hole to clean with his battery gun; then he stuck cups in he did put something on sealing surface & sprayed lubricant on oring; put injector in & tightened with same battery gun & hit a lick with torque wrench; then put rockers on used same battery gun & torque wrench; must have come out with new update where no torque turn or degreeing or loosing off & redoing like I read; then installed valve cover & cranked; he forgot to fill it back up with anti-freeze so had to do that; then hooked computer to it for couple minutes; not long enough to put new calibrate codes in for injectors; & backed it outside Guess you don't have to run overhead on this new update either; Now I know for sure I'm going to do it myself; Sorry for the rant but just had to tell it
  9. The 09 I had said 4000 hours; that would mean 08 thru 10; I believe my 12 says the same
  10. Yes it is but with the help from all of y'all I can get it done
  11. Y'all ever heard Freightliner fever- Red Sovine
  12. Yes they can order them for me now that I have found the part #'s for them
  13. Just curious; there were couple places around memphis that had them; but didn't think about how things have changed over the years; insurance & all other you mentioned; have to be a buddy deal; thought you could get showing of full fuel before you had all hp to the ground with one; just to get timing reading not to see how much hp you have
  14. If you had access to a Chassis dyno could you do your tests
  15. My local dealer couldn't I got the part #'s from Watt's 88800457 88800460 Was hoping these were the 1's for the stainless steel conical cups
  16. Should have checked Watt's before asking; my dealer didn't know
  17. Where can I buy the tool to put injector cups in my mp8; Thanks
  18. SA 0 SPN 1127 FMI 18 Bought this truck & noticed it had hesitation in it in a hard pull; it has gotten worse; it will steady miss at certain RPM sometimes; had conversation on here & probably think injecters need replaced but been trying to get through this peak season to have checked out good & changed if needed; had to go by Mack on ATC issue & talked to mechanic about miss; we road tested & he asked had it had all updates; told him dealer where I bought it was suppose to check & do them; well he said they didn't so he did them; noticed truck did better; noticed it had bout 5 or so lbs more boost seemed to pull harder but still had the miss; he thought could have fuel pressure related; told me to take lines loose at ecm cooler & blow through & check for trash; did & all looked good; truck had just been serviced but I still r&r fuel filters again; ran good for almost whole day; then back to way it was; today it through these codes & I noticed boost pressure back down 5lbs or so Any information would be greatly appreciated Thanks
  19. Just wondering has anyone heard or seen any updates on that F model build that OakleyTankLines was doing
  20. Was at the Mack place today getting some stuff & ask them about a radio for my truck ( mine the CD player not working good) & figured another factory unit would be easy with just plugging it up; they said around $125 bucks but after they looked it up it was over $600; said it goes through the computer; it's just an am/fm/cd/weather radio; figured that kind of money it would have a lifetime satalite one; does this sound right? Has anyone put a different type in? Any suggestions; Thanks Oh they said they had satalite radios but they were for older trucks; that doesn't make sense
