trucking251 0 Posted February 4 Share Posted February 4 2005 mack cv713 400 AI I think also called a e7. What is the contraption with all the hoses going to it under the turbo? There's a short rubber fitting with big hole in it and oil blowing out of it. Are these all vaccum lines? I'm a little lost here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
trucking251 0 Posted February 5 Author Share Posted February 5 I know this engine doesn't have EGR. It's not coolant lines, is it vaccum? any help would be great. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

trucking251 0 Posted February 6 Author Share Posted February 6 So here is pic. Figured out it is air compressor. But what is the hose that has big hole in it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
br549 56 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 That tube goes to the intake manifold on rear of driver side. It is feed for A/C intake, that will cause you to loose turbo pressure, causing low power. Need top replace hose. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
trucking251 0 Posted February 6 Author Share Posted February 6 Do you think the small piece of rubber hose with hose clamp is original or a quick fix? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vmac3 92 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 You mentioned that it is leaking oil out of that hose. That would suggest that the air compressor has failed. Drain the air tanks and see if there is oil coming out of them. Also check the purge valve on the air drier for excessive amounts of oil. Thanks for the pic.

Joey Mack 377 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 quick fix.. make sure the new hose can handle heat.... no wimpy hose 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

V Yup agree ! also there is a second hose like that one on the under side of the inlet manifold! check on that too!Your best to use a heavily braided coolant hose OR the proper Blue heavily braided hose from mack land! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
trucking251 0 Posted February 7 Author Share Posted February 7 Thanks for info. I didn't mention that major amount of oil in exhaust, I assumed turbo and have new one on shelf ready to go in, would this cause oil in that hose? hoping to not have to replace compressor as well, seems to build air fine Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Mack 377 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 is there oil on the compressor side of the turbo? (the outlet) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Mack 377 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 I just noticed your picture. I've been to the top of Mt. Washington twice.. I went up on a motorcycle once, it was great!. Jojo Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's called the hose that's going to make you buy a new compressor in this instance . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Mack 377 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Yes it is...... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mark T 80 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 '05 is an EGR engine, and wouldn't have a turbocharged compressor (would it ?) 🤔 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Mack 377 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 If you are asking me..... what I mean is the output of the turbo is called the compressor side, in some terms... I also think his air comp. intake goes around the back of the head to the bottom of the rear of the intake manifold. i didnt see where it went to the elbow after the air filter... thank you, jojo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
trucking251 0 Posted February 7 Author Share Posted February 7 This is the "AI" motor. No EGR thank goodness. The air side of turbo goes to intercooler around front of motor. Really don't understand the purpose of all these hoses coming off the compressor. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Mack 377 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 The hose with the hole in it, is the intake, the larger steel pipe is the output. the 2 #6 J.I.C. hoses is coolant flow , in-and-out, the 1/4" line is the signal line for the governor... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mark T 80 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 AI most certainly is an EGR engine. I can almost remember the rigid line that hose with the hole in it rotting on those where it hides behind the engine on it's way up to the ducting from the air cleaner into the turbo.

fjh 775 Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 Those often fail due to due to heat ,the compressor working because of overtime air leaks is the air drier purging every fifteen seconds ? ! Or clogged coolant lines! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
trucking251 0 Posted February 8 Author Share Posted February 8 I promise. AI-400 has no EGR system. I get it now on compressor, that's just air feed in and out, so probably got a bunch of junk in there between the turbo failing and the hole. -( Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The egr system is integral. It works by using the valve timing and exhaust pressures to feed the cylinders with exhaust gas. The engine camshaft has an extra bump on the exhaust lobe to allow the exhaust gases to enter the cylinder during the intake stroke. If you take a look at the exhaust manifold you will find that the diameter is narrow. The engineers did this purposely to increase the back pressure in the exhaust manifold so to push the exhaust gases into the cylinder. V 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
