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

1999 R model Mack Fuse box diagram
Joey Mack replied to badbob's topic in Electrical, Electronics and Lighting
What model and year is the truck? 98ish -2006,. Rev. Light is fuse 41 in the dist. Box under the hood.. maybe you explain the issue you have in more detail.. Jojo -
I'm just curious.... Were you able to put a gauge on it to get a true oil pressure reading?? Jojo

It reminds me of 23 years living in Maine.. God Bless you.. It's a good thing we are experiencing Global Warming, otherwise, it may have gotten to -40.. Jojo..

Yes to all. Try checking the u- joints and yokes.. yokes should be tight and not able to move up and down.. if you see a shinny ring on the end of a u-joint cap, it is loose. Keep in touch.. Welcome to the Dog House... Jojo

Yes, there should be blow by.. like I was saying,. I'm grabbing at straws, because of all the new parts, plus, he just acquired the truck, so history is unknown,. And it is an AC ASET... So there is a bunch of sensors to deal with.. and ether is used to start it,. And,. Well... Not being there in this case, is tough too.. jojo

Isn't there a fuel filter up high near the steering column? I wonder if, after it sits for a while, he takes it off to check the fuel level in it to see if it drained back to the tank?? I am trying to fix this in my head,,. :). But I'm getting foggy... also,. Does pumping the primer before starting it, make it start?? Jojo

Atro makes a strong torque rod for that suspension.. -
I just went back to page 1... He just got the truck.. what's the chance it is already addicted to either, and needs 'A Hit' to get started each day.?? I think a compression test is in order.. what say y'all?? Jojo

Judging by the picture of the airbag support. I would say that where the u-bolts clamp the springs in place, there is a good bit of wear.. do you see rust under the u- bolts or spacers, and also a shinny polished look on top of the banjo housing, under the torque arm mounts.. ? -
Mack tranny's since the mid. 90's took 75W90 synth. From the factory.. Do you have a Maint. And Lube book? There should be other grade listings for the region and usage..

Merry Christmas!!!!

Ok.. im grabbing at straws.. I guess since you confirm the elec. Issues are out, for the most part.. I guess it's back to loss of fuel prime..
-
Yes check the RPM/TDC harness.. I suggest you take the heat shields off and look really good at the EUP wires.. they tend to rub through, and can short out against the block.. it is a bit of a long shot, however, I have fixed many of them too..

I wish. Ether was not needed.. it's not healthy for a diesel..
