By passed with no probs running bobtail and it did not get over 80 or fluctuate but as soon as I put two 36 ft trailers behind (no load) it started rising and falling and as soon as you pulled up it was pushing though it was only limited but more then a dribble, but didn’t want to heat the compressor to much.

No EGR on the ETECs

Got hot and shut down so replaced the old two piece with a alloy one piece reservoir, flushed radiator and block, very clean. Has new water pump and hoses. No leakages externally or internally that I can see. Nothing in water, manifold and exhaust clean, nothing in air tanks only drops of cold clean condensation. Horton type fan operating at correct temps. When static operating you bring it up to temp range even at 1600 rpm and blip the throttle it won’t push coolant until you go down the road and come back then when you stop it pushes also when you then touch the throttle it also pushes. I haven’t looked at compressor but thought i would join the two hoses to complete the circuit and run it. Any other thoughts?

No, she’s not rollin coal or any smoke and replaced all injectors but haven’t checked fuel pressure at EUPs.

Hi guys, my 470 CX Vision won’t go past 20 Psi on boost, I pressure tested the system and found a leaking waste gate and hoses so replaced these items as well as Orings on one EUP that was leaking and changed these......anyway all of this made no difference...any ideas? Thanks

After all that I found the power relay not seated correctly....all good thanks guys.

My 98 CH tipper has been static in the yard for 6 months but always fired when we needed to move it. Went to fire it the other day after I check fuses for no brake lights, then I check the fuse box under bonnet and blew the dust off with air and went to start and it fired straight away and run for a few minutes then slowly shutdown like out of fuel, started a few more times then would not fire. Checked tanks and they were half full, then cracked line to filters and pressurised tank and fuel came out. Primed it and would not become rigid so changed primer and and also found plastic holding return check valve open so I replaced this, and still primer not becoming rigid until I pressured lines, then after I bled them the primer again would not hold pressure....... would this be o rings or one inject o ring failing?

thanks mate, love your work.

This is for the radiator flush but I need one for engine internal.....somebody said use diesel to flush the engine?

Thanks mate, also whats the best way to flush the coolant out of the motor?

My 94 Elite E7 454 did a head gasket and started to miss in one cylinder ..... I changed out head gaskets but its still missing on one cylinder..... only things I can think of are damaged ring or bore and no or lack of compression but don't have a guage or tool to remove injector to check it out....anyone know of a way to remove injectors without special tool?

Hi Guys, it was the suspension ride height adjustment for the air bags so once it was adjusted as per the book was all good thanks

thanks Mack pro

I will check the filter thanks

also you guys call a truck with a 5th wheel a tractor (we call a semi or prime mover) and you call a truck ( we call a rigid or truck with a bin carting gravel) is this right?

yes has the two and both are ok, it only locks when a qtr of a way through a turn every 40 to 50 turns and usually with a load though will occasionally do it empty...pulling tri axle grain trailer

The model is M110, this is what is cast on the outside of the case, you cannot see anywhere else really on the box as the CLR in on the inside of the rails.

Thanks guys can only try these things, I did replace all of the UJ's and have just put on new ride height levers as suggested by J Hancock and adjusted as the others were bent...have a few more jobs on her and will let you know once I test drive her.

all good I had the manifold machined which did the job

Steve, I will find out let you know.

Hi, I have a Sheppard steering box on my 94 CLR and it has just started to bind or lock, has anyone else experienced this on theirs. So when I am turning or just adjusting the steering particularly to the right it locks and I have to pull on the steering to release it. thanks

no 3 exhaust on my E7 454 is leaking and loosing power (performance) I removed the exhaust manifold and put a straight edge to the heads and manifold and all look good.... can I use silicone or double up on the gasket to stop this leak?

yes it is Newway air and which pinion angles ? the diff ones?

94 CLR 454 really starts to shake at around 95kmh or 65-70 mph with or without a load but its not coming through the steering wheel any thoughts guys ?

No all looks good in this dept and no air leaks. any other thoughts people?
