Vladislav Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 It has attractive look though. Air start? Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freightrain Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Yes Vlad, air start. Doesn't look to hateful overall. I wonder if the lack of batteries are the reason they call it "non runner"? No one wants to air it up for the starter to work? Agree, pricey for what it is. 1 Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

It's probably a "non-runner" because nobody there knows it has an air start. The guy that drove it probably retired 15 years ago and has sat ever since. Now the new guys want to unload it. "Hey we put a new battery in it and turned the key....it wont start".......non runner 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 I was going to say I think somebody already posted this. I guess I wasn’t crazy. Yes it looks really clean. We were talking about one tank. I think last discussion trying to figure out if it was gas. Engine… Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if the battery is in the alum step box? Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large...................... Charter member of the "MACK PACK" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terry Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 I have seen batteries behind that panel on right side ,between step and cab. and a B61 is a diesel. terry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
67RModel Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 It does have the B61, Thermodyne, and Diesel emblems on the hood. Are we suggesting it was repowered to gasoline or the hood from a diesel was installed on it sometime after it was new? Both seem far fetched considering it is owned by a municipality.......Its a diesel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 Well it seems to have a diesel breather either way real clean ride …. Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
