  1. Its Glenn Akers Birthday... He was a strong member here. R.I.P. Sir...
  2. Sorry, bud.... im at a loss.. any chance you have number 1 injector out ?
  3. Look up through the hole at 6 oclock. There is only 1 mark. I think its Zero. Its been a while
  4. Me too....took all my stuff apart as a kid. Even fixed a few. 🍻
  5. There is a mark on the flywheel, then you set the cam in place on 1, then the cam gear, using the silly A-B rod thingy. Theres more to it, but i havent done one in about 8 years.. you can re-set it. Dont try to run it til its right..
  6. Funny how that is.. similar structure, not as good as eaton.. i had a hard time shifting my Meritor, after driving a ton of trucks at the shop with Eaton, and Mack transmissions. I did learn it, but didnt like it. However, i did like the cruise buttons on the shift knob, kinda made slow speed changes a breeze..
  7. I would destroy that prime rib, with ajus or horseradish.
  8. ATRO sells one for about $30. Of course that was what i paid 5 years ago
  9. I found that Eatons shift smoother, but i only drove a few, and owned 1 meritor 10 speed. But I remember doing 'in chassis' synchro replacements and it was just like doing an Eaton. As far as the sloppy shifter, look to see if its a 2 peice shifter like an eaton. Then you can replace the bushing at the joint like an eaton. I bet ive changed 50 of them..
  10. im good with a salt and peppered ribeye, cooked medium, with blue cheese crumbles on top at the end.
  11. Its really just Beef that can be under done. Poultry and Pork need to be COOKED. 🍻
  12. Dammit Man !! Too bad im not building an E-6 right now..
  13. Im not sure if the volvo dealer portal is any help anymore. Mabey "TheHeinz " will help on this one.
  14. I cant even find my notebook where i recorded all the pins on the bus bars on the firewall. That bugs me... my note books go back 25 years...
  15. KP2... I organized my library of shop manuals. Unfortunatley, the only wire diagrams I have are V-Mac 3, and 4, or the Volvo versions after 2007. I wish I could have helped you. Jojo
  16. Yep. That was my point about the safety valve. Its good that you found that info..
  17. 97 is when V-Mac changed from 2 to 3, coming out in '98. A whole other animal.. i just packed up a bunch of my books during a home repair project. I may try to look for my drawings. I have a bunch.
  18. I wish i was familiar with that compressor, i cant tell from the pictures. On Bendix Tu-Flo and I think Midlands pumps too, there is a plug in the head on the air side not the coolant gallery. They can accept the releif valve.
  19. Id say a lot of black carbon like debris was restricting flow out of the compressor. Is there a pressure relief valve on the copressor head ? If not, i suggest adding one. We use 150 PSI releif valves.
  20. Awesome !!
  21. So true fjh. When Mack went WID numbers, the whole parts room was turned upside down. Our shop allowed some of us mechanicsnin the parts room with a parts guy, and many parts were grouped together as they related to each other. For example 'AX' was bolts. I have forgotten a lot, so i dont have many examples. Sorry Freightrain, I felt compelled to divert a bit. Did you download the KSA&A Book ? It is very helpful..
  22. Yes
  23. It is supposed to say "P20" not P2.. I hope they work with you..
  24. Ok. Could be.. i have been away from those models for 7 years or so and have forgotten a lot...
