1992 e7 300 dies but will restart immediately
wes flaharty replied to wes flaharty's topic in Engine and Transmission
I don't have any Robert Bosch pumps laying aound, I have an Ambac off of an E6 300 but I think That's a 3 bolt mounting. I have a good running E7 400 Mechanical in a project truck that i can use if I have to. Hopefully I can get this thing figured out. Thanks -

I'll check fuel pressure, I did replace the throttle pedal about two years ago because the old one had a lot of wear on the roller but it made no difference in the lope. I have 5 other R models that are all mechanical and this one has me stumped. Seems the local mack dealer does'nt have anyone with the knowledge on these old vmac engines. If I wanted to make it mechanical is it as simple as an injection pump and linkage? Thanks. -

Thanks for the replies, the oil pressure is 25 at idle(at 180),the wiring all looks good and I unplugged the deustch connector at the pump and everything seems tight. I'll try a wiggle test tomorrow. I ran 12 volts to the fuel shutoff and that keeps it from shutting off but the vmac light still comes on and it won't except throttle. Any other thoughts on the lope, it has always had this since I've owned it. If I can't get this thing figured out I'd like to make it mechanical or drop a mechanical engine in. Thanks -

Hello,I have a 1992 e7 vmac that starts good and runs fine but when you drive for a few miles the vmac light comes on and it shuts itself off however it will start right back up and you can go a few more miles. This truck has had a lope of about 200 rpms at idle ever since i have owned it, I put a used vmac and ficm in it about 1 year ago for an issue where it would not start. any help appreciated,thanks
