The service tool part number is a Kent-Moore tool part number. A mechanic told me to just use a golf ball but I havn't done that yet. It should work. Just make sure there is no leak at the wrist pin retainer or you will get lube oil leaking. How about the sleeve to install the pistons in the...

Google is your friend. Try searching for Daygreen B20-24-12. That's a 24 volt to 12 volt DC downconverter that can handle 20 amps. That is overkill for a radio but good for extra accessories too. There are 24 volt to 13.8 volt DC downconverters too. You can get them in various amp ratings...

Good work. 240 ft.lbs. is a lot of twist! Do you have the special tool for the wrist pin seals, caps?

I kinda figured that too was gonna happen. I had hoped to go on saturday but will see come fall. Take care everyone and stay healthy. I'll be working on my truck. Hope fuel prices stay low for a while.

I did some social distancing today, just me and Groot, my 923A2. It was a beautiful day and Groot had a great time!

I was troubleshooting my non operating heater fan and the switch came apart. I think I found the problem!

Don't forget to check the fuse plugs in the cylinder heads. They are probably melted if it got hot but you can replace them for next time if it comes. It's behind that slotted head plug below the exhaust ports. Only one on each head.

How does the crank look, thrust bearing?

I've been that way a couple of times. It's a long drive! One time I came in from the fawnskin side and was going to go down along the trail but there was a big gate that was locked preventing anyone from going up or down. It would be a real bad day if someone drove all that way up the trail...

I would clean up the contacts and reassemble and try it but would also consider a new one. How does the commutator surface look on the motor? Brushes? Check them out too and clean up while you got it out.

What you could try is tap the solenoid with the handle of a screwdriver or a ratchet extension and see if it unsticks the solenoid. Sounds like that is stuck in the "energize" position. It might take a few "taps" with the screwdriver so keep trying. After getting it unstuck, I would take the...

Hi Mike. I've been following along with your repair. I have experience with the 53 series detroits but not the 92. They are similar in that they have wet liners. Keep up the good work. You have a massive shop. That's an awesome truck and engine. I would love to have one....someday!

I need to do that to my 923A2. Thank you for the info. Your under hood looks great. Could you send me the mapping of the pieces to the rolls? Thank you and Happy New Year!

Nice looking truck!

I don't have an M998 but I do have a GMC suburban with a 6.5. I had trouble with my starter and replaced the solenoid but it still acted up by not turning the engine. I got a used gear-reduction starter at a junk yard and it worked a lot better. I replaced the starter switch as well. That is...

I'm WA6KNO. I don't have a 40 meter antenna but do have a 20 meter inv. vee that I listen on. 73 OM

Distilled water is better cuz it doesn't have any minerals in it. Minerals cause build up of deposits.

Are the door hinge bolts on the outside on the 939 trucks threaded into the hinge or are they just slip fit with the nut on the end? I can't get mine out and I don't want to twist the head off the bolts then I would be really in a fix. Thanks for any info.

What exactly is "Precision Scheduled Railroading" may I ask. Maybe I shouldn't ask... Is this just with UP or all class I RR?

When hooking up the front axle lock-in valve air line from the dash to the front axle engagement air cylinder air line at the back of the transfer case using a compression fitting, do I use a brass ferrule or a nylon ferrule with the brass insert? It looks like my air lines have both! I'm...
