    Aftermarket "Plasa" CTIS Controller Not Functioning

    And about debugging: There's a reason why in the controller is a usb cable. If you connect the arduino to a PC with the arduino ide open, you see all the telemetrics of the system, like status of wet tank, settings, pressures, valve status etc. So debugging is possible, without any special...

    P6 thrust bearing dodged a bullet…

    Just a stupid question. If it's a matter of spacing, why not keep the original bearing and add a washer to get the 8.5mm space? And the spacer can be of alluminium or plastic, easy to make and the bearing is always under load. Christian

    P6 thrust bearing dodged a bullet…

    Do you have a transmission that is affected by the Allison letter to change the bearing if transmission is before a certain serial number?

    any idea where oil leak came from?

    I think it's ATF oil because it's red. Does anyone already change the seals of the pto? What components have to be remove to unmount the pto gear box? For sure air filter, but also coolant reservoir?

    any idea where oil leak came from?

    Thank you for the input. I clean it up and for me seems to come from the pto between pto and hyd. pump. But I am not sure because the oil is not clear but red. (atf3?). Is there any hose ore other stuff from the trans over the pto? I can live if it's hyd. oil or from the pto shaft. but having a...

    Cruise Control?

    Agree. But since my friction on the hand throttle isn't reliable and on bumps turns back slowly, I was thinking to eliminate the friction, insert a returning spring and keep it in place with a electric magnet. Connected to the brake pedal and it should be done. You can enable it by a push button...

    Cruise Control?

    It was also my idea, or even simpler, with a electric magnet to keep the hand throttle in place. But than you don't have a cruise control, just a "keep the throttle at that place".

    Who are the experts on the Air compressor

    Yes, they are pretty clear, I was not expecting that. Did a test after I rebuild the head, I did not hear any diffrence when running in idle, it can be that loads a little faster than before. Christian

    Who are the experts on the Air compressor

    After 8 years owning an LMTV I can confirm that nothing on this tucks will be permanent, except the constant maintenance tasks. If you think you found all the gremlins I can bet there are a lot more waiting for you ;-) What should be intresting is what haldex says about preventive rebuild of...

    M1078a1 - Starter Flange Play

    Definitly. What wrench did you use to close the 3 bolts that connects the flange to the flywheel housing? I changed them to normal hex screws because the original ones are difficult to tight up... Christian
