    Does anyone have a dragon stencil painted on their truck?

    We have an M901 at the Museum that has that same dragon on it. We lightly sanded it to bring the image out better and made a copy of it. I'll snap a pic next time i'm there.

    Bobbed Deuce, missing air brake lines

    Well, both locations. The air pack connection might be hard to bubba because the "t" is the air pack casting, IIRC, it's been a bit since I had to mess with the brake end. The air tank side could have had fittings/components removed so it might be tougher to put back into service

    Bobbed Deuce, missing air brake lines

    Bummer...Frank8003 posted some good diagrams, you should be able to figure it out from there. Hopefully, whoever did the bob did the right thing by removing the line and just plugging the ports.

    Bobbed Deuce, missing air brake lines

    Your truck SHOULD have both lines plumbed back there already. Look for two ball valves, they operate backwards from a normal ball valve, handle in line is closed and 90 degrees to the line is open.

    Oil in exhaust pipe

    They do not like to idle. Idle time and short hops will lead to oil oit the exhaust. Do like stated above, run it hard....they like it!

    M925a2 Power Surge

    Don't worry about the white smoke on the 475, that's normal, will only smoke at idle/no load. They were POS until you turned the fuel up. Smokes white cause no air to the MVT actuator. I think Clint has bit off more than he can chomp on what with the transplant AND the tipper:naner:

    M923a2 fuel pump issue

    Secondary is pressurized. A messed up gasket makes a mess. 20 to 30 PSI there

    Fuel leak

    No, can't replace the ferrules, once on the line, no can take off. Over torquing the nut can crack the line.

    Fuel leak

    If the delivery lines are leaking, SOMETIMES it helps to crack the line while the engine is running. If when assembled, debris got into the seat area, the fuel will push it out and things will seal up. If the lines were over tightened, the ferrules could have been damaged.

    M923a2 fuel pump issue

    You'd be better off by putting the bleeder at the outlet of the pressure filter, the fittings are the same and it is a higher point. Good idea installing a bleeder. Just a tidbit of info, Bosch inline pumps are self bleeding. Hold the pedal to the floor and the engine will fire.

    M923a2 fuel pump issue

    Make a line from the lift pump into a bucket of clean go juice. See if it will run on that. If it runs 'till the bucket dries up, your issue is before the lift pump.

    Artisan's M916

    Brad, I lied to ya. The crank is NOT the same. I started thinking about things and remembered that .gov had old style small cams that use a taper nose crank. The NHC crank will fit in your engine but will not work due to the nose configuration/damper style. I apologize man.

    Brad, I found a manual that shows flow, but, it is for BCIV, New BCIV so the flow through the oc is different, but it will give you what I think you are looking for...leme see if I can figure out how to attach them from my phone...

    Artisan's M916

    The overhead can stay on, the engine just needs to be flipped upside down, both ends removed and then the crank comes out, IF he were just doing a crank because it broke, but, it has a spun bearing, it will need to come down to a bare block IF material got past the filter. Brad, disconnect the...
