    Cat 7155 tranny price

    I know it’s a year later, but you wouldn’t happen to have that old 7155 laying around still?

    M917-7155 tranny woes.

    Well, here’s a fun one. Looks as if I’ve had a major oil pump failure. Seems as tho whatever caused it had been going on for a while before it finally gave up. I guess it’s going to be a total tear down and rebuild on the non-air side of things. Wish me luck!

    M917-7155 tranny woes.

    Yes, to all of the above. It kerthunk kerthunks through all the gears, including reverse. We keep it oiled as well. It slightly lunges in each gear, but it won’t engage completely. I’m going to start going thru the steps in the TM for troubleshooting this weekend.

    M917-7155 tranny woes.

    Morning everyone! I have a bit of a problem with the transmission in our 917. Yes, I’m going to study up on the TM’s, but I figured I might as well start a thread to document my plight. Also would like any guidance you all could offer along this journey I fear I’m about to take! Well, here it...

    MEP 10xx control cube haul

    I don’t “need” one, but for that price per unit it would be worth having a spare….

    Ok, which one of you got the deal of the century, and can I get one, please? (For like $200)

    Getting Ready For The Hurricane

    If my fancy 1040 decides it doesn’t want to work I might have to come grab one if those tier 0 sets! I’m a little closer to the coast than you. 🙃

    MEP-1030 Mouse Proofing & MEP-10XX WiFi Remote Start

    This makes me happy, as my 1040 is bout 350' away from my front door. That's a long run for a fat guy when the power goes out (especially when it's raining)

    Advice needed - new guy with MEP004A

    Easy peasy, cut the top plate on the 2x4's and sister in 2x6 the full height of the wall. You'll have to order a door with a wider jamb if that's what is framed out there, if its just a window you're golden. Not really a hard fix at all since the sheetrock isn't up yet. Is the interior...

    Fixing up my MEP-803A"

    If I wasn't so far away from them (since they're in Kansas), I would have bid you up some on em! That $220 closing bid was dirt cheap. Please start a thread and let us know what shape they're in.

    I hope that I never have the need to use that to troubleshoot my 1040! :oops:

    Inflation and MEP replacement parts

    Yeah, that's the knee-jerk reaction I expected, but I'm more of a details and specifics kinda guy. I understand policy has consequences, but they should be pretty close across the board since the same awful policies should effect these stations exactly the same seeing as they all get the fuel...

    Inflation and MEP replacement parts

    I can't for the life of me figure out what the deal is with diesel prices around me. Within a 4 mile drive I can find prices for a gallon of diesel varying from $5.69 to $5.09. Literally on the exact same highway. And the best part is one day the first station I pass will be the highest, and...
