    M1078 - M1083 Cab Air Suspension Bags/

    I thought the cost of eggs had really gone out of sight, and yes I do feel compassion because as usual the cost of feed has drastically increased. So the remedy is you either buy eggs or not. The airbag on my 1083 decided to spring a leak but before I took it out I wanted to see if they are...

    Fellows, I really am trying to learn how to read the WorkShop Manuals/ once I find he information I have no problem but finding the information is very trying at times, like most of the time/ I am looking for the Air Line and Valve diagram, a schematic that shows the basic position in the frame...

    Niehoff N3030 Regulator/ M1078/ doesn't have flashing light capacity

    Ronmar, Thank you for the video on your conversion and I gleaned a whole bunch from that. I have question as well as your counsel on this subject. I am working with no space in the under dash compartment as the Fire Departments have already utilized that for fuse panels and a place for all sorts...

    M1083A1 Electrical Maladies Starting at the Disconnect Switches

    All it's running. I figure I will run another flush on that transmission when I fully service it in a couple of months/ Brakes freed up with a great POP. I thanked you before but not enough, Thank you all/ Lugnuts I will also run another post when I see about "Waterproofing" the truck. Y'all...

    Niehoff N3030 Regulator/ M1078/ doesn't have flashing light capacity

    Hey Gents: I need to pick up on an old post. The Double Alternator that I ordered still hasn't come so maybe I really need to take a look and heed advice from y'all. Earlier in this post it was stated to but a Niehoff 24 vdc alternator and then use a 12vdc convertor for the 12 vdc leg. Third...

    M1083A1 Electrical Maladies Starting at the Disconnect Switches

    Actually I can not answer that question. The Fire Department had 3 standing in a row and they had just received these from Forestry so they grabbed one, Stenciled some numbers on the side, and put it into service. It got chosen because it started. Please tell me the location of the breather...

    M1083A1 Electrical Maladies Starting at the Disconnect Switches

    Thank you for taking the time to write a long reply. It is much appreciated. I do not intend on using this diesel for anything except starting fires or perhaps cleaning very dirty trucks just prior to pressure washing. Mixes great with Gunk that needs to be cut/ You did make a point for me which...

    M1083A1 Electrical Maladies Starting at the Disconnect Switches

    Ronmar, NDT, and anyone else. I was thinking again about the diesel and salt water/ This time is was sugar and water/ We know the bad things that happen with sugar and water in an engine but that happens due to the heat of the engine or so my thinking goes/ I wonder then if something happens to...

    M1083A1 Electrical Maladies Starting at the Disconnect Switches

    Being rural is good, I happen also to enjoy the pleasure of it. I was thinking along the line of separating water from fuel and burning it in my vehicle/ Fresh water I have no trouble doing that. I've just never had a batch come through that was exposed to salt water. I agree with NDT about...

    M1083A1 Electrical Maladies Starting at the Disconnect Switches

    I want to pursue this matter a bit more but from different perspective. Does anybody know what happens to the salt content of water when mixed with diesel? I know that a mess of y'all are going to say get rid of it, and I don't dispute that but... does the salt stay as a corrosive ingredient...
