    What does it mean when all the lights flash on the CTIS??

    The proper proceedure is to have the truck turned off and power turned off. Unplug wait a few moments and then plug it back in and power the truck up in the proper manner (your waiting for the ABS light and the double clicks correct?)

    Glad hand service air hose length? 25 or 50?

    25 will work. Even more so on a M939 with emergency gladhands at both ends.

    M923 Hard Top

    I did mine by myself on the M925a2. I basically slid the top onto the hood and then basically tilted it over the windshield and into place. All in all about 2 hours start to finish (I used an air ratchet with 4" extension when bolting down the hardtop). If using a manual ratchet add another...

    Air pressure light and alarm won't turn off

    Also NONE of the M939 series trucks came with ABS when first issued. ABS is a MWO (Modification Work Order) retrofit that was supposed to be done. See attached PDF of the MWO

    M923a2 pulling question

    Yep the 8.3 (a2 model trucks) have the turbo motors which have poor bottom end grunt UNTIL the turbo spools up where as the naturally aspirated NHC motor produces grunt via 14 liters of torque without needing the extra engine rpms to spin up a turbo to get the power. It is widely known that the...

    I've run Delo 400 for years in our gens & tractors at our ranch. (we buy it by the drum there at the local Chevron bulk plant). I usually use Mobil or Shell here at home for my Gen & M923a2 & M925a2 as I pick it up when it's on sale in the 5 gallon buckets.

    change from 100 amp altermator to 60

    Yes you can. You just need to match up the wires to the correct posts. It's pretty straight forward for example battery Positive cable to Positive post on Alt, exciter wire to field post and ground wire to ground post.
