Kudos to him. I'll bet that pup would make a loyal friend for life. If you can put up with their yapping, Beagles are very good companions.

I had one once upon a time. Captain Billy Whizbang was his name. Good dog that seldom made a peep, and he was full blooded.

Otherdog do you now have another good ol dog at your house?

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tell me you're kidding!!!!!!!!

You should never use a non detergent oil in any engine!!!

That stuff is strictly for "oil can" lubrication.

Regarding the OP's question, any reputable brand 15w40 diesel engine oil will work just fine in that 673.

Aw Man and I thought I had my work all caught up for the weekend, Now I have over due oil changes to do. That is what I get for running off at the keyboard, any way thanks for the heads up Block

Hey Double Diamond, ain't heard from you in a long time! As for your question, I don't know. I had my oil changed at a garage that does a lot of truck work, but when I drove it home it was a gallon low, so I put a gallon of Lucas Heavy Duty Oil Stabilizer in it because I didn't know what kind of oil they used.

I use SAE 30 non detergent

And make sure the hand valve (trolley) isn't partially on.

Check and make sure that you do not have mud or a rock between the pedal and floor to keep it from coming all the way back up

...about 32 miles north and 13 miles west of Ft. Defiance.

I live between Crossville and Grayville just wondered if we are neighbors.

If I'da been eatin' or drinkin' when I read that, I prolly wouldda made a mess

Hey Reb where are you from in SoIl?

I have a B-615 that I put a 865 in, I done a little fab work and mounted the spin on to the frame behind the cab. Block

Thank you for the faith and inspiration. I'm going to pull it off this weekend and get it apart to see. The radiator is scheduled into the shop Monday morning for final evaluation and integrity, and I've purchased all new belts, thermostats, seals, and gasket material to get the cooling system in decent shape. Since running six gallons of muratic acid, (80% water, 20% acid) and repeatedly flushing, the drain water is now clear and not rusty. The heater works well in the cab also. I plan to flush it once more with clean water/neutralizer, then refilling with 50/50 mix of green coolant/distilled water. Should be the end of that for a couple of years!

Rob I had a similar problem with the water pump on one of my endt 865's about 3 years ago the seal and pin were both available from Mack at that time. I built a small puller for the impeller and done the work myself, the only thing the seal is made out of ceramic and it is very easy to break and cause a leak ( The voice of experience here I changed the seal twice) hope this helps Block

Just a reminder, I know it is short notice but the Wabash Valley Chapter of A.T.H.S. is having their annual show on Sat. May 10 at 9:00 a.m. on main street in New Harmony, In. If anyone is looking for a show to come to you are more than welcome.

Block. Also with a name like rigchaser and pic. on your font you move oilfield equipment? I do too these CLs are rigged up as winch trucks.

Mackpro68 Where are you located in Western Ky? Block

Doug where were you in Indiana? Block

Rigchaser I can get you some frame pictures from the CL we have four of them where I work one 2000 model, one 2005 model, one 2006 model, and one 2007 model the 2000 has 460 Mack the other three have Cummins let me know what you need and I will try to get them to you. Block

Mack on fire I have a good TRD-67 for sale no known problems I took it out of a B-61 to install a TR-720 I am located in southern In. where are you located let me know Block

That truck is a B-61 with the big radiator, this was available on most if not all of the diesel B-Models, I have seen a B-67 with the big radiator from the factory. If you watch the show again you will notice the rear facing hood scoop this idea was borrowed from the early maxidyne series R-Models etc. as the air intake for the tip turbine engines, and if you look close during the shots of installing the new A/C system you will see a tip turbine engine upgrade, making need for the bigger radiator to cool this setup in a work truck. Block

I do not know for sure because it is hard to see but I think this truck is a B-61 with the optional big radiator, or it could also be a B-615 with the wrong emblem and no V-8 emblem, If Superdog or the Ol Fuzzy Buzzard can shed some more light on this,if you look at the picture of the dash the firewall looks flat like a B-615 instesd of the protruding doghouse that the B-61s have. What does everyone think? Block.

Packer how much are they paying experienced winch truck drivers without lumps in their pee? Block

I could not agree more, I hope the boys at trash my truck know what an ICON that the B-Model MACK is to everyone who knows anything about trucks. Barry if you have any input in this project be sure and remember to get the serial number to Fuzzy Buzzard Block

Chuck what kind of shape is the interior in? Would you be interested in selling any of it? And where are you located? Thanks Block
