    Actually,given the size of the show at Macungie,there`s not that much in the way of vendors selling parts,IMO.

    You primed over rust? How long will that last?

    Reading the earlier posts,does anyone know what happened to Rob and Mad Dog? They were very active on here,then nothing.Same with Vinny,the U model fanatic.Any one ever hear from these guys?

    I like the look of the pintle area,gives a finished look,and is different from the usual treatment.

    I just used new rubber gaskets on my 673,there was no sealer on the old ones.

    I didn`t know that S/P switches were ever used in gas engines.As for electrical,are the breaker panel contacts corroded or oxidized?

    Gregg Hoffman from Bangor?He hauled my B model up from DE,great guy and a total pro.Has a beautiful MH,don`t think he`s posted on here in quite a while.

    Was there a dog house for the engine,like on a B67?

    Someone pays you to clean their gun???

    If you`re planning to run at highway speeds,the rearend ratio,as mated to the gas engine might be too high(numerically).

    You sure did,-6 last night in Washington,NJ.

    I think the turn signal box was mounted on the dash to the left of the gauge cluster.

  17. skydawg

    673 turbo,triplex,single axle tractor,Goodyear/Michelin tires,Dayton rims,decent red paint,red interior.Has a blockage between filter and oil cooler,either the hose is clogged or the filter outlet.Hoses are new,canister was cleaned,new elements installed.I`m done crawling underneath it in my back yard.Ran good,probably excessive blowby.Very minimal rust.I have $23k invested,will sell for $18k.Located in Washington,NJ,can`t post pics.908-619-1793

    Here`s hoping that Cher and any other celebrity airheads that threatened to leave the country if Trump won will keep their word.

    I didn`t drain the crankcase,just removed the filters and replaced oil hoses.
  23. skydawg
    Can an oil line to the filter ever need to be primed? The filter is a Luberfiner 272-c.It has inlet and outlet check valves.I had the canister out,hoses disconnected for a couple of months,so when I installed it and filled it with oil,the check valves would have been closed,and any air in the hoses would be there when I started the engine.This is a second filter,it appears it`s job is to filter oil going to the turbo.

    Unfortunately,that can`t happen on my watch.I`m far from being a mechanic,and the code readers around me aren`t interested.Guys who know these trucks have passed or are too old to care.
  25. skydawg
    No pressure after a minute and 20 secs.So I`ve run the engine for a total of 2 1/2 minutes with no oil to the turbo.
