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...

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 -

Fuel leak on front of engine
Joey Mack replied to trucking251's topic in Modern Mack Truck General Discussion
yes balancer comes off, crank hub comes off, ( theres a process to putting the hub back on), alt. and bracket comes off, and pull the fan off for room. also lower engine mount comes off.. there is no gasket, it is Mack gray RTV... If you do this repair, get Mack gray RTV or the BEST alternative RTV you can find... there are 2 locating dowels on the cover and very little area to pry the cover loose, so be carful.. you will need a new hub seal.. look up how to seat the seal... ok, I will stop now,, jojo -
just clean the balancer.. the marks are there.. On the E-7 dont expect '0' to be TDC... 1&6 will be before that mark on the balancer.. I dont know how many degrees, but its there.. You say you have the book... great! one more thing... I was taught a long time ago how to tell if you are up on #1.. When the pointer shows 1&6, look to see if the #2 exhaust rocker is 'rocked'... if it is, you are up on 1 and ready to start running the rack. if not... go around 1 more time.. jojo
-
the little broken hole... my guess is someone tried to bar the engine over with a small pry bar or big screwdriver.. You will see a zero on the flywheel edge. that sets the engine to TDC on #1.. then when you place the cam, you set the cam to TDC.. theres more to do but that is the basics of it.. I expect MackPro and 'V' to join in on this and fill in my blanks... jojo
