    It can be re cored.

    Deuce Front Bumper Tow Bar Mount (again)

    The only issue I see is that it comes off the mount complete, and, as you already know, it is heavy. Yes, IF it was ever needed there most likely would be a second person, but, still, together, it will be a hand full to wrestle down. How did you get it up there?

    6CTA8.3 engine rebuild for Sur Móvil

    Unless the block is cracked between the liners, it can easily be fixed in chassis. The parts just need replacing. IF what happened to Mos' engine was a warrant able failure, it would have got a new head, turbo, up to 6 cylinder kits, aftercooler, rods as deemed necessary by the inspecting...

    Allison ht 754 fluid type ?How to get rid of air coolant ntc 400

    Sorry, thought I read 923. That is the vent line. Simp, did you roll your truck ;)? akita91, if your engine doesn't have it, you need to put one in.

    Allison ht 754 fluid type ?How to get rid of air coolant ntc 400

    The stat SHOULD be a 180, the gauge might be off a bit. I do not remember if the NHC has a deairation line routed to the surge tank. I can look when I go to "work" next Tuesday. The line should start at the stat housing before the stat and go to the surge tank, there is always a positive flow...

    Allison ht 754 fluid type ?How to get rid of air coolant ntc 400

    Please, use caps and spacing between your sentences, it makes it a whole lot easier to read things....especially for us older dudes! Please update your location from your zip to a city. Use your favorite flavor of engine oil, 15w40 is the proper wt. Myself, I like Valvoline. It doesn't get as...

    Insane $150k M818! this is worth a look

    Meh, there aren't even any Jakes on it.....Amateur! AANNNDDD, with the "charge air cooler" mounted against the block, how does that work?

    6CTA8.3 engine rebuild for Sur Móvil

    Hey Mos, you DID replace the aftercooler, didn't you? All the pieces of the dropped seats find their way to other cylinders via the intake. They are moving at a very high velocity and some pieces like to get wedged in the aftercooler core. YOU will not be able to see them or get them out, but...

    Need Guidance, M923 loses air zero leaks found

    I'm pretty sure the one you got from Memphis will work, it is just an updated deal, but, if you want one that LOOKS like your old one, try a Midland RM1720221. https://www.haldex.com/en/na/air-wiper-motors/air-control-valves/trico-compatible/rm1720221/ Try a NAPA store, and bring your old...

    6CTA8.3 engine rebuild for Sur Móvil

    No need to bleed anything. The Bosch in line pumps self bleed. Hold the throttle pedal to the wood and crank it. Mos, no break in oil needed, just run it 'til the next oil change interval, unless you were dirty going together, like lots of dirt/dust flying around with things open. I am not a fan...

    Need Guidance, M923 loses air zero leaks found

    Ordeal to install. If you don't use it for what it is made for, you have a big oil pump installed on your engine. Stick with the 13 CFM comp.

    Cummins PT pump tach drive question

    No, IIRC there are two different sizes. Make them install your old one.

    Need Guidance, M923 loses air zero leaks found

    Air it up from another source and lay under it. If it leaks down to zero in 30 min, it should be fairly easy to hear/find with no outside noise.

    In-vehicle single piston/sleeve swap?

    It's #2, so the cab won't be in the way, Sure, as long as you have the puller to get the liner out and a ring compressor to put the piston back in the hole. No different than an 855, DT or other engines. Parts could be an issue, as in getting the same piston, I do not know if different pistons...

    2018 SoCal Fall Rally

    Our fireworks schedule has been busy this year and we pushed the trip to late Oct for weather reasons. Still kicking the dates around. I'll hopefully know more later this week. I need to get my azz out there.
