i know the tranny mounts are in the same spot on the Eatons,, just like Mack tranny's. The back boxes are different.. ...... RD 688-S/ 045719 Is a 2001 RD that i have worked on.. E-Tech with an 8LL.. This should be what you need to check and see if your tranny hangers are different.. No REPTO on this truck.. jojo

so when you turn the key to the ;on; position, that bulb doesnt light up during the self test? -
Paul,,, hand built with wood at the site, as opposed to a manufactured house that is built in pieces inside a big wharehouse sized building.. Like how our trailer homes are built.. We also call these homes pre-fab houses.. kinda cool really... they are not subject to bad weather as they are being built..

All good... Catch you later.. jojo

The drive end that is in the block looks good.. the cable is what needs to be checked.. Is that the old cable in the picture? it comes from the back of the tach, through the firewall, and around the engine to that drive hub that you see.. jojo
-
They are just like a speedo drive on an older car or truck. push in and tighten the large knurled knob to hold it in place.. the end of the tach cable should have a keyed end that fits in the hole. it may be a square end and you put the correct plastic tip on it.. jojo

does the yellow lightning bolt come on too? Do you know how to get active codes using the cruise control?
-
I didnt look back, but do you have any fault codes for oil pressure or coolant?
-
forgive the silly question, but are there any loose bulbs that are just flopping around back there? yes I would expect LED to be brighter. the normal bulb is a #194. I assume you know that.. I doubt i'm helping, just curious I guess... Jojo

If you dont have one of these books for your year model, I suggest you try to get one. They are a wealth of information... Of course Mackpro is also a wealth of knowledge. but.... just in case he's not around, this book will help...

Hi Mackey, just curious, are you looking for that octopus looking thing with the fiber optic wires? Jojo
-
Oh my... $250.00???? Holy crap .
-
The last one I bought was a few years ago, and it was just under $80... I hope it is still reasonably priced.. glad you keep in touch.. Jojo
-
so after about 15 minutes or so, does it NOT disengage? and then kinda come in and out as you drive?
-
Yep...
-
well the first part is great news... as far as the cluster,,, I have to think on that one.. Maybe check the plugs on the back for issues.. sorry I dont have a better answer.. jojo
-
Lets not forget belt tension and pulley condition.... Just trying to act smart here,,, Jojo
-
A D-Bag... thats who... jojo

I dont blame you Onyx for not doing that... My dumbass has had his knuckles shaved too many times.. My smartass comments are usually based on my dumbass mistakes.... Jojo

nice testing procedure.. what if you took a long grill lighter and warmed up the coil and pulled on the fan blade at the same time to see if it got tighter.. of course there wont be any centrifigul force.. Im just sayin, and messin too.. I think they are still under $100.00.. Good luck, jojo

no one gives a damn how they sit on the shelf. at the parts houses.. . When they are on the engine, they go into service.. centrifugal force and heat tells them what to do... am I wrong Mark?? jojo
-
If you don't require DRL's... Pull the module and leave it out, and see if it acts up after a while.. just a thought... Jojo
-
67 Remodel,. The valve lifters have ceramic rollers, and can not handle shock,. Like when the engine rattles hard from using ether to start it.. that may be what you are thinking about.. . And yes to looking at the starter as being bad.. I posted a test you can do to see if the starter is pulling too much power.. Jojo
-
Ok.... Here is something I did years ago for a no-start issue in a CX... I took a separate battery and hooked the neg from it to the truck batteries. Then take a length of wire that can reach from the positive on the remote battery, to the EECU fuse 40, in the fuse box under the hood, and back feed power to that fuse socket.. then crank the truck.. if it fires right up, there is a high power draw.. I have found bad starters this way.. Jojo

So true Brocky.. I'm here 17 years, never saw 10 degrees til last Saturday... Reminded me of up-home.. just glad it was only for 2 days, instead of weeks.. jojo
