The PPV only ensures that the brakes have full pressure. It should ALLOW air to the accessory side including the air governor. If it is stuck you will NOT have horns, wipers and the air pressure will go to about 150 where the safety valve will take over and blow off at 150 psi. Hope this helps.
I towed an AMC eagle on a 2000 pound empty trailer. No problems at all. Load balance is everything. Get the tongue weight right. Sure the power is a little down but I had no issues at all doing 60 for more than 25 miles. Best trailer would be a light weight car hauler. The kind with full length...
I guess then there should be a rule to thoroughly research your question without copping out that I tried, I can't or whatever. I have done it once. As this is your first time I simply stated the items that caused me grief. Can you time it Tom's way? Sure. As it was my first time I preferred the...
You will need to remove: the brush guard, radiator, front valve cover (for timing). When it comes time to install the pump and time it, the engine will want to move to either side of where it needs to hold because it's not exactly on a lobe. Hard to understand until you get to that step, but you...
Its not bad at all. I know everyone says read the TMs, but read the TMs. I did figure out a neat way to hold the timing with an extension bar and socket. Worked like a charm. It was my first and with quality coaching from a member here we got it done. Only need a couple of cheap gaskets and...
You can make the air hoses. There are no springs in the front brakes. Go to NAPA and buy four glad hands and a couple if short air hoses. DO NOT TOW A 931 With a deuce without air. You are getting a lot if conflicting information. PM me for my number and I can help you.
You do not need to pull axles, driveshafts or uncage the brakes. If the deuce provides both service and emergency air as it should you will have full brake operation. Transfer and tranny in neutral, air hooked, chains and away you go. It will be a slow roll. Test the brakes, the air brakes are...
Gimp check the ground for the ABS system. It is part of the PCB mounting. It grounds through the stud and spacer. I have seen a lot of paint on those four surfaces that can cause a dirty or floating ground.
Why introduce a new potential leak point? Its really easy to use a $5 gladhand on the rear port. No need to get under to an air tank or any other junk, literally takes 5 seconds to connect.
Hello, I am wheelspinner, and I would like to see breakfast exactly as it was last year, with the exception of having grits everyday. Popop's grits are amazing and I can't wait for them. Lunch, was OK, its hard to plan who will be around and who will not. Box lunches seem to work just fine...
