Glad you saw this, fjh,..

Have you confirmed that the throttle lever is not wide open? Im not smart about injection pump internals. It does sound like a stuck rack though. Have you checked the connection of the duetch plug at the inj. Pump ? Make sure none of the wires are loose and able to be pulled out of the sockets from the back sides. I have made many repairs to those plugs for loose connections. Make sure it is secured in its yoke when you finish.

I get it. I am not able to dedicate labor to do repairs because i have a full time job. But I am totaly willing to help you, and show you what i do on the side in my shop. If you decide to ride over here, give me a weeks notice so I can be here. You are welcomed to bring the truck, or just your 4 wheeler. Bring a camera so you can take pictures of my tools and pages in the books i have.. Its impressive..

ok, I looked, you are west of Asheville. so maybe 2 1/2 hours from me. If you are ever driving by here on a weekend, you are welcomed to stop in at my shop and look at what I have and I can guide you on how to work on the engine.

how far away from Salisbury are you? You may want to come visit me and look at my books and tools.

With respect... Asking how to do valve seals, and my knowing that valve train very well. If you dont know how to do seals on this Mack, you really need to get the book and read it. Mack valve train is adjusted quite differently then Cat or John Deere for example, and if you make a mistake on yours, you risk cracking a lifter roller.. What say you ??

I DONT. get the impression that this is alarming to you, more of an observation. One if my customers has an '04 Granite that does the same thing once in a while. I would lean towards valve seals. Of course a compression test would be good to see if you have a weak cylinder. Are you doing the work or a hired mechanic?

With respect to you sir. Did you clean the paint off of the piston for the bed ? Hate to see the gland seals get cut.. -

Roll rod and main bearings, inspect the inside if the oil pump for large scratches, if so, replace it.
-
Low oil pressure? How low ? 1.5 million, not rebuilt? Many tests to do... Fuel pressure, compression test, proper valve adjustment, cylinder cut out test, .. could it just be tired ?

I went back and watched it a few more times.... I'm still not sure what she was talking about.. 🤔

the sheriff from Florida speaks for all of us who love the U.S.A. now its time for other sheriffs to join him.

uuhhh.. ? what is she saying ? i was distracted when I watched this.

I think i see engine brake spacers, so its pre-ASET. The picture is blurry. I too ask if the valve adjustment is correct. Can you put a volt meter on the plug on the wire for the front head and see if it is getting 13.8-14.3 volts when you rev it up then activate the engine brakes ?

Happy Birthday to davehumell.. 🍻🎉🎂

Joey Mack replied to CrocEyes's topic in Electrical, Electronics and Lighting
Are the positive batt wires rubbing the batt box and charging the frame. That model year is a neg ground system. -
These riots are another example of how the lefties want to destroy our Great Nation... They want all their oddball ways of life to be normal... Nope...
