Neo... I responded a bit ago... I'm going to post a question for the guy's... Can he look at air tanks for his truck, at site's where they sell air systems for people who take small pick up trucks and install air ride to them? I know that Midliner parts are like 'Hen's Teeth' hard to find.. so does he get creative? jojo

Tjc... No!!...... jojo

I remember those days in early 2000.. I did quite a few core sand repairs and stand pipe updates.. as far as cutting counter bores, I remember measuring the shelf in 3-4 spots, and looking for cavitation that went from the bore wall out to the edge of the shelf.. thats when we cut 'em... jojo

Dan, do you dare to take the turbo apart and clean out the soot that has the ring nozzle bound up? jojo
-
For some reason I can not find the tool on the web... Its a plastic gauge with teeth on it and you use it to set the VGT cam into position before you install the actuator, then you are ready to do a calibration.. Why can't i find it??? jojo

Onyx, I will have to look for one,, mine is long gone because they are plastic and dont live long... jojo

hmmm, I wonder why its stuck.. I cant comment anymore because I am not there to see it. and its been a while since I messed with one.. sorry bud.... jojo

swap an elec. inj. pump with a mechanicle inj. pump..
Joey Mack replied to Joey Mack's topic in Engine and Transmission
Thank's Glenn.. I was hoping you would respond.. my cust. has 2 engines, im pulling the pump off one and putting it on the other. so I should be able to see the plug you mention, and as far as the lines, I hope to use the lines he has, i expect that I will have to buff the ends so they seal.. I figured I would use the timing for the pump that I am keeping.. thanks again.. jojo -
remove the turbo VGT actuator, leave it plugged in and cycle the key to see if the actuator does a self test.. if it does, then rotate the little 1/4 gear to right (I beleive) and reinstall the VGT actuator.. there is actually a little plastic gauge to set the VGT position... do you have that tool? you wont be able to move the actuator by hand, so dont try.. when it is put back together, you can use PTT to do a VGT calibration. hope to see more info on this, to get you were you need to be.. that said..... 👍 Awesome!!!!! You took on, one heck of a job.. Jojo

I have a customer that has a '96 RD. He wants me to pull the elec. inj. pump, and install a mechanical inj. pump.. I assume both are robert bosch based on the year. But I havent gotten all the details yet.. I have never done such a swap... would I just use the pump degree settings from the mechanicle pump, and install it that way.. I have only ever re-installed the pump's that were on the engine originally.. I have the tool's, most of the knowledge and all the Mack books.. I welcome any help... Joey Mack...

I want your truck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jojo

you are over joe...if the measure is correct.... I would like to hear from MackPro on this as well. I learned .1000 is the max.. however... i have never pushed that issue... the most i have ever shimmed was .012".. the shelf is 4.010" ish - 4.030" ... stock....liner protrusion allowance is .023" - .029" with .002" variance on the front 3 holes and the rear 3 holes... however, I always want to learn from others on this.. . jojo

Fuel leak on front of engine
Joey Mack replied to trucking251's topic in Modern Mack Truck General Discussion
hey bud... you have to pull the hood, and cooling pack because there is no room to do the job.. You need to be sure about what you are seeing.. for a guy like me the job is easy, hood off in 30 mins, cooling pack, 15 mins if you drain it first.. Im sorry if this seems like a bunch of work for a BS leak.. but... it is what it is... jojo -
Fuel leak on front of engine
Joey Mack replied to trucking251's topic in Modern Mack Truck General Discussion
that hump is where the plug is... to bad there isnt a different shape to the cover to let you get to the plug.. I wish I had a spare cover kicking around, so i could look and see if there was a way to drill it out to get to the plug and tap threads in it for another plug... dammit.... jojo
