E9 exhaust manifold leak
Outbehindthebarn replied to Outbehindthebarn's topic in Engine and Transmission
So you just fabbed up an entirely new cross-over? Did you retain the factory 90 degree elbows? What are they getting for the headers? -
E9 exhaust manifold leak

Is that what you did? Had a machine shop build new pipe? -
One on ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1981-Mack-Superliner-30-ton-wrecker-/221850037193?forcerrptr=true&hash=item33a74aebc9&item=221850037193

So my truck is leaking pretty damn bad at the joint pictured below. Bad enough the battery box lid is black. I attempted to heat bolt to remove short section of pipe and couldn't get it to budge. I then turned to BMT archives and found that these manifold parts are scarce and decided I didn't want a catastrophe on my hands..... Is there a doughnut in there that needs replaced or what??????

I hate my gear shift
Outbehindthebarn replied to Outbehindthebarn's topic in Engine and Transmission
Put a bolt/nut and lock washers in, loc-tite too... seems to have really tightened it up. I looked at my short shifter, it appears that the pin was welded on one end from the factory.. . Haven't had it on the road yet to see if the shaking is gone. Trans. mounts look fine to me. -

Was it a noticeable improvement? -

They're making booze with it now.... -
It is directly 'up' from accelerator pedal. There is a permanent air fixture that leads through the firewall.... I can't understand the wires both carrying 12 volts with the key on....

I hate my gear shift
Outbehindthebarn replied to Outbehindthebarn's topic in Engine and Transmission
12 speed CH.... Bolts right in, without modification? I really like the idea of smoother and quieter. -
The wires leading to it are both carrying 12 volts. Wires disappear into harness. The numbers on it are illegible. One air line runs to the air gauge the other runs to a big air valve thingy under the floor boards. I broke it hunting for my low air buzzer... (which I don't believe I have)

I hate my gear shift
Outbehindthebarn replied to Outbehindthebarn's topic in Engine and Transmission
So I checked the pin... Somebody put a hose clamp around it to hold it in... hole is egged (someone even tried to weld it) and the pin is jacked-up on the ends... fell out when I turn the shitfer on its side. What would you do???? thanks for all the advice. ron -

So this truck I bought has a 12 speed in it and I really hate the gear shift(er). It dances around violently, and is uncomfortable to use. You can also rotate it in the gear box a little which seems wrong to me. I know the 12 has a reputation for being a little 'clunky' but I wonder if there is some bushing missing.

what is p2?

Do you remember if it had a jake?
-
Yes, that's what is on my wiring schematic.... "transistorized".... I can't help but wonder why they'd be an option for a flasher...??? All it needs to do is "flash".

I was thinking it should be chain drive, Sterling's held on to that the longest didn't they?
-
I'm trolling the website now....
-
That's a good idea!

Watts said the part # is good, but they checked their entire system and they're aren't any around anymore... and you're right, evidently it was an option... I was hoping that the 'other' 'standard' model was available. IF, I could get a part number for that one... maybe it would work in its place.
