    What can cause the dipstick to get pushed out?

    Let me see if I can find a p/n for the rubber. What was common practice was to buy 2, cut one in half and install the in tact one first, then the lower half of the other stopper. When you put it in, DO NOT tighten it until the screw stops, that is over tightening it. Turn it until there is...

    Master cylinder replacement, 1987 m35a2c

    Yeah, I was referring to the mounted pic. The replacement is the FE777 style. Sorry for the confusion.

    Master cylinder replacement, 1987 m35a2c

    Rusty, I dunno, that is not a FE777 MC, the outlet(s) are on the side and not at the rear, (single line) like the others I have seen. Also lokoks like a plastic reservoir. Looks like two outlets. Where do those two lines go?

    cummins big cam/small cam balancing differences, and clutch/flywheel/pp swapping

    Flywheels are balanced individually. The Damper takes care of balance as the engine runs. Flywheel can go on any position. If you use a FW hsg from a small cam on a big cam, you will need to enlarge one mounting hole, it is the one above the cam, when the engine went to a larger dia cam, that...

    923a2 temps at different spots

    Those temps are fine. When the block loop gets hot enough for the stat to start opening, the cool coolant from the radiator loop cools the sender enough to shut the fan off, close the stat and re direct the flow back through the block loop. It is called stat modulation. Only after running it...

    Glad I went my tent to crash! Again, that 7T worked awesome!

    7.3 powerstroke swap

    Not only the size, but the torque nd power it puts out will hurt the drive train. I agree, fix the 6.

    2019 SoCal Fall Rally

    Just got home, my Son and G-daughter were still here! Fastnova, thanks for the invite and the good time. It was great to put faces to names, haven't done that in a while. Thanks to all for the awesome food last night. I think you should have brought more wood!! Can't believe how well the 7T worked!

    NHC 250 Valve adjustment problem

    Threads sticking out of the lever. Normally there should be 2 to 3 threads protruding past the jamb nut. One valve, In or Ex, I forget which one, does have more protruding than the other, but all cylinders will be the same. If you have one cylinder with 5, 6, 8 threads on the adjusting screw...

    2019 SoCal Fall Rally

    Get off at Ft Irwin Rd, go N, it is paved, it is about 7 miles to Copper City road, it is dirt, turn left. From there about 13 miles to the road they are on, there will be a half buried tire at the intersection. Left to them, about two miles. They are a ways out there!

    New to me M936A2 engine idle / load issues

    Careful with bio, it is highly corrosive and the early Cummins junk didn't like it, BUT, since it is corrosive, it might help! I agree, looks like water or something water based. There are other fuel system cleaners out there, I just have never seen them work, so if the FG part can't be located...

    NHC 250 Valve adjustment problem

    There's your issue, Cummins has no rack!

    NHC 250 Valve adjustment problem

    How to check accessory drive timing. When you can go through 1/2 of the tune up process and the engine locks up, it usually means the timing is off or you have done it incorrectly. Top Stop, Adjust A, Inj 3, Valve 5. Put a socket with a 6 inch or so extension on it on the #3 injector jamb nut...

    Nhc250 valve injector overhead adjusting

    Correct Simp, but do NOT do valves and injectors on the same cylinder. A= I-3, V-5, In .011, ex, .023

    New to me M936A2 engine idle / load issues

    Man, that is NASTY!! I am kinda fighting this kind of issue on a deuce, been sitting for +13 years. The shut off was stuck hard. the HH arm kept wanting to spring back to the no fuel position. I have let it run and get some heat in it and it is better. I moved it the other day and upon clutch...

    https://cumminsfiltration.com/sites/default/files/MB10106.pdf Any Cummins dealer, Frtlnr, Peterbilt, KW, etc. should be able to find it. It is a Cummins Filtration product, not a Cummins part. Another thing I thought about, the idle stop adjuster has a tendency to wear if the engine has been...

    NHC 250 Valve adjustment problem

    Accessory drive timing could be off, could have a beat in seat or a dropped seat. With the adjuster back in the lever, are there about the same amount of threads sticking out of the exhaust as the intake when the lever touches the cross head? If you remove the cross head, is one valve higher...

    New to me M936A2 engine idle / load issues

    Yiu said the fuel system was full of "tar". Cummins makes a cleaner that works wonders, I have seen it work on the dyno. The 1 gallon p/n is CC36096. You will need to make up lines to pull from and return to the can it comes in. Give this stuff a try before you go into the process of having the...

    CARC 383 paint sources?

    Maybe try posting in another forum to get answers? Like one related to your vehicle and not a "website help" forum. Just sayin'

    M8 Greyhound help

    I indeed made traces of the original gaskets for future use. Hopefully, we will not need them! The fuel pump is now wired so that it can be turned off so the engine can run itself out of fuel. We have talked about using AV gas for these older vehicles, but I am worried that the high octane and...
