So I managed to borrow a Donaldson intake cap from a brand new Oshkosh fmtv. (It's huge) Have to get an adapter to reduce to the 939 intake. The new fmtv intake stacks apparently are much larger.
Once set up I'll post what happens. Trucks enough of pig with out getting dirt in air intake! I'll...
I've put 3 filter minders in thinking bad spring, bad from factory etc all related the same. wondering, I don't run the truck in water or deep water. What about removing the entire military air intake and using one of the high performance k&n diesel racing air filters directly at the air intake...
I pulled the intake cover and ran it today. Not a lot of difference, maybe 10% less on minder to 65 % after 15 mi.
may look into ram air cover myself to see what happens.
Just wanted to post an update from the 8/12/15 post I made regarding the tmg air filter mod. Now that it's been used
for 8 months.
i have noticed since installed, although the truck performs better,
the air filter minder it's constantly showing 80% or basically it Max's out after a few miles of...

I put one of tmg's air filter kits in my 936a2 .....
the difference is night and day... I can no longer get out of truck and run around it going up. 3% grade....
the difference is immediately noticeable. I picked up 15 mph on grades it would literally stand still on...
shifts better runs better...
Ok, so after fighting to remove that leaking valve for close to 2.5 hours after removing I took it apart
and there's a little brass sleeve that rotates with the actuator lever that was a little worn, and on the actuator arm bushing there was also a broken O ring I located a new valve and...
Yeah, went through that to Will.
air schematic is same
if not to cold tonight after work I may try to pull it off
to see if there's any O rings inside.
Same here. Makes no sense.
so... The leak is through the vent cap....
I'm wondering for the sake of just doing it...if I put a 1/4 pipe plug in place of the vent to stop the leak
what would happen...obviously the leak would stop but would it create another situation
I've been through the TM schematics pertaining to the air system
and unless I'm blind I can't find what this valve is called in order to
replace it. It mounts behind cab on the A2 crane truck or wrecker if you prefer
its venting air constantly from my secondary tank
oddly enough when messing...

i looked for one for several days...it's not standard or metric.....
It is between a 205 & 206 metric in all 3 dimensions (id,od,width)
I finally located one at a hydraulic packing and insulation company.
a little snug but lubed it and ran truck on and off under load and it works fine
cost...
