  1. Yep! Thought so, jojo
  2. Damn smooth shifter... I bet he's more aggressive with the me@t stick?? jojo
  3. You know I'm curious..... jojo
  4. well, iv'e been tinkering.... I put new glass in him, (Sanford).. just pickin. at him.. no way in hell am I a finish work guy, but I got him running and when I get the brake's to work, I will drive it some more, in my neighborhood. I use the hand brake to stop it.. I will post pic's as I go.. I have the chrome strip's minus the 2 that say,,, 'International' for the hood... but,,, I bet I find a Pair,,,,, woop's.... that last one is what my wife say's.. jojo
  5. here's a picture of my 'Really Big Mack' he's my buddy and when i'm on a creeper he is right there to sit on my chest and lick my face... his name is.... Mack...
  6. Rainbow for sure... jojo
  7. I told you way back. Oct. 5th.. jojo
  8. a 'jug cant handle the volume of fuel that will be pumped...
  9. any chance you have access to a banjo fitting that is the right size to fit the fuel pressure regulator on the front of the head?, if so, you can attach a clear hose to it that is long enough to go back to the filler cap and in the fuel tank, down into fuel, run the engine and see if there is air in the returned fuel. it will look like suds/ beer foam.. make sure the line is in the fuel so you can see the bubbles in the fuel. if you see a lot of air, darn good chance the injector cup o-rings have failed.. There really isnt any repair shortcut's for this issue. If you cut corners, you will just be 'pissin in the wind'... jojo
  10. cool lookin rig.. Sorry Bud, I'm out..., but curious... Jojo
  11. look up Moto-Mirror.... its doable. jojo
  12. were is the picture??? or model/year?
  13. the EGR valve may be bad, but it's been 2 weeks, and I believe my parts quote scared him away. my guess is they will hire a kid to do the wire harness, and when it gets to the point were the injector wires, and cam sensors need to plugged in, they will call me.. of course it will cost more because I will re-do the work. who knows. i may just stay away from it... jojo
  14. easy to see...cam sensor is at the right front near the breather. held in with an 8mm bolt. short harness, secured on the edge of the timing cover.... the crank sensor is at 8 o'clock on the flywheel housing... the cam sensor may have a teardrop shim behind it. just for kicks, take it out and put it in youre pocket.. put the sensor back in, then crank the engine and see if it runs better..

    Etech 400

    I worked in 3 Mack Dealer shop's and a couple private co's and 2 bigger co's that were 75% + Macks... so when the boss's saw that I could do the job's and didn't 'bitch' well..... guess who got the engine job's... no biggie, just my path.. I still want to learn more about the one's I know. Hell in a couple of the shop's I got all the tranny build's and rear end's too... ok, I'm rambling again... jojo

    I also learned from true Mack old timer's, that Mack farmed out parts for the E-tech to Bosch, and they made crappy lifters, and the fuel pump was nothing to write home about.. for example.. I really welcome other opinion's on my statement's.. but really.... to me.... it's the best alternative to have a 'million mile engine' if you don't have an E-6 or E-7... a bit about me... I did my first cam job in 2000, on an E-Tech... i have only done about 40 of them since, so I'm not really an expert... just Joey mack..
  18. For sure, HAYSEED.... Make PawPaw proud.... He's watchin.. jojo

    Etech 400

    Early E-tech's were the ones, from what I learned, the brass spindle that the roller, spun on, would flat spot and stopthe roller and then the firestorm starts.. I have seen 'flaked' rollers, pitted rollers, and flatened rollers down the the yoke on the lifter, cutting into the lifter, and still running, terrible of course... did I answer youre question? jojo
  20. no need to go with an E-9..... The E-7 will do a damn good job. and the CH is not built for that 3200 Lb. engine... Of course, torches, a good welder, patience, and lot's of money can make it happen.... ..jojo
  21. well the bottom of the compressor has ports for the oil to drain back into the pan... Sounds feasible.. jojo

    I believe you are correct 'sir'.... I call it Ceramic Cam Roller Sh1t...jojo Looking back..... I agree with 'V' the early E-Tech wasn't that bad. certainly better than the ASET CEGR..... jojo
  23. I think you can access "E-Media" from there..
