    Correct. Fan should freewheel anytime it's running.

    Injector line removal tool?

    I actually pulled mine today with the front 4 lines removed at the pump and the rear 4 still attached. What a royal PIA snaking those lines out!

    Injector line removal tool?

    When pulling the injection pump, is there a special wrench/tool for removing the lower fuel lines with the pump in place? Or do you have to remove the pump with the lines still attached? 6.5 engine.

    Oil pressure spike

    Use whatever your budget will let you. I've used Stewart Warner, Autometer, Bosch, Sun, etc with good results. Any 2" gauge will fit.

    M931a2

    If you are referring to the park brake by the seat, it has a cable going underneath to the mechanical brake. The air switch under the handle works the air park brakes. There are no electrics involved, as Wes said.

    Changed out my glowplugs. It was easier than I expected and took about an hour.

    I installed an aftermarket Grant brand steering wheel in mine. I drilled 2 holes for roll pins in the adapter and it works great.

    Injector pump leak

    Just curious, what does that arm and linkage do just to the right of the arrow on the bottom of the fuel pump? Mine has a noticeable catch in it from the eccentric cam and it has heavy accelerator springs to overcome it.

    1045A2 Slant Back - Turret Delete

    I removed those bolts through the C pillar splice and replaced them with carriage bolts. The heads of the regular hex head bolts will tear the seal. You should remove the turret cover and seal it as mine had nothing under it.l

    Holes, Hinges, and Doors - 1045A2

    I filled my empty holes with 1/2" and 3/8" bolts. The X door hinges lined up with existing holes; some were threaded and some needed nuts.

    Air pressure

    Problem is my 1078, at the lower pressure, is and has always worked fine. He is the one having issues at the higher pressure. We were wondering if the CTIS is faulting out seeing 145 psi?
