  1. I have heard that Canada owns a lot of our farms.. the 30% I heard mentioned China.. I guess its best tonhere itbfrom a true farmer.. i still dont like it, we need to own our land. Thank you Bob...
  2. Well your doin good, and I like that you are here. We all learn from each other.. Jojo
  3. I don't believe a short block is available, just long blocks, they call them Basics..
  4. heck, the so-called spy balloons could carry a virus, and ,,,,,,,,, wham !!! we are infected.. yep, not one shot fired....
  5. I know I can only do a little at a time to be part of the solution.. however,,,,, I can be a stronger if the need arises..
  6. TJC, are you sure?? the Chinese own 30% + of our farm land.. why wouldnt they kill us..
  7. M.C. They are here to KILL us.. and unlike our current president, China wont tell us when they will strike.. jojo
  8. E-7's ? short blocks from Mack??? Hell, I tried to get an E-Tech re-man and was told to send my engine to the re-man center and IF they can rebuild it it would be 6-9 months... because they didnt have that engine in stock... Its no mystery why I use PAI parts,,
  9. I say it because they always ran good and I don recall the amount of issues compared to an MP.. I am not a wizard on these, just tossing out another Engine model.. I will always be a Mack Guy.. Wonder why no one wants to use a 12.7 Series 60 Detroit.?? I think they are great engines.. jojo
  10. just get a volvo D-11.. its a better version.. or a D-12..
  11. yes sir, it is.. and those are full re-builds, not including other engine repairs ive done like oil pumps, water pumps, heads, gasket kits, etc.
  12. I also use PAI for transmission repairs as well, Rear ends got rebuilt at another shop, also with PAI parts.
  13. well i have 10+ engines out there with PAI kits. All doing good. do you have Macks part numbers for what you want? what engine series are you specifically looing for?
  14. Have you searched for the kits from PAI?
  15. Did you use Mack Software to do a pedal calibration?
  16. Hey Buddy,, I'm glad you asked.. So oil ''volume'' is taken from the filter pad. It goes through those small bulk head connectors in the jake spacers. Then, under the covers is more of that line going to a 90 degree fitting that is drilled and tapped into the jake head right above the oil gallery in the jake head. the extra volume of oil along with some updates to the jake heads and replacing the oil pump with the 'new then' high pressure oil pump was meant to improve jake response and power. a new lash setting was part of the update, (.021'') from .015 -or- .017''.. Theres a bit more but I will stop here for now.. Good to see you Mech... Jojo
  17. That line is part of the top oil feed update to the Jake heads.. it is supposed to improve Jake brake performance. It helped a little bit. The bulitine is on Mack E-Media if you want to read it..
  18. ok,, I dont have enough knowledge on MRU concrete pumpers. I assume with an Allison transmission, with its own cooling system, and cooler.. Is it possible that there is a leak in that system? the tube you showed in the picture was new to me, so I may not have enough knowledge to help you.. grabbin' at straws, and it s bedtime.. Jojo
  19. coolant can pass through an air compressor that has a blown head gasket. no different than an engine.. unfortunately, if you bypass the compressor cooling lines for too long you risk more damage to it. so, in the morning after sitting over night, have you loosened the oil pan plug to see if coolant runs out around the plug ? does it blow mist/steam right away or does it need to warm up first? Heck??? does the compressor look like its old and crappy? does it build air pressure good?
  20. so the CCV is clean as well? no mayo........ I wonder if the air compressor is bad and passing coolant into the crankcase?
