  1. It's a conventional. It has the Iveco inline 6 with a 6 speed conventional transmission.
  2. I have photos save to my PC but for some reason I can't load them here. I don't have this issue with Facebook or Craigslist. I'll try again. Yes, Midliner. The title just says Mack 200. Still getting the error message.
  3. Back in the 80s I worked on a ranch in Montana. They had a 50s era flatbed tilt bed IH. It had a 6 speed transmission with a Brownie 3 speed splitter. You had to double clutch or it would lock up. Driving it on a foot hills ranch you were clutching all the time. Some days my leg would cramp up. We locked it up one day 20 miles from nowhere. The only tools we had were a 1/2 inch wrench and a mini vice grips. Danged if we didn't get it fixed! It burned up one day. I was 5 miles from ranch headquarters and had just went through a gate while hauling hay. Came back from closing the gate and flames were shooting from under the hood. Had a gull wing hood. I opened the hood. I had no extinguisher or water. I had one of those wide top water coolers. I scraped dirt from a cut bank and dumped it on the flames to put it out. Turns out that the boss had the goofy idea that the hood would contact the battery terminals. He wired a piece of inner tube over the battery but did a shitty job. The inner tube slipped off and ended up on the exhaust manifold and started on fire as soon as the truck sat at idle.
  4. Hi, my name is Al and I just became the owner of a 1993 Mack 200. This is my first "big" truck. I'm sure I will have a lot of questions in the future and my first is where is the fuse panel? The heater fan quit when I drove it home. Also, can someone point me towards a schematic of the dash panel? There are a couple of dials that I cannot determine a purpose for. Tried to post a pic but I keep getting an error message.
