    Air Fails To Build Intermittently; Parking Brake?

    Mine is a A2, and it's right where he said. You can actually see it from outside the truck, passenger side. Look over the back of the rear tool box at the front of the rear tank. pic inbound

    Air Fails To Build Intermittently; Parking Brake?

    I had a ppv stick on my way back from the Denton rally, the symptoms were I lost all my secondary air functions. I.e. wipers, horn and CTIS. Air pressure was still correct and building correctly. It was raining at the time and my wipers just quit suddenly.

    With full pressure shut the engine down and then disengage the p-brake. Then check for any leaks under the truck. Like the cans or relay valves, expecially the circuit that don't have air pressure until the p-brake is disengaged

    We use a really nice M915 or M916 A3 just for pulling trash trailers in and out of the transfer station. A real shame the truck is like new only 5k on the odometer. They may have been doing the same? Or hauling a excavator? We're fixing to get one this year.

    M1028 running problem

    Alot do the same to re-prime and test the M939 fuel system. We'll have to see if we can get a spare cap. So I take it this is a mechanical system. Peter how much fuel has been added to the tank?

    M1028 running problem

    Peter I have a bore cam of it comes to needing to scope the tank. And if it has somewhere to hook up a fuel pressure guage I have one also. Does this platform have a mechanical pump on the engine or a electric one in the tank?

    Mk48 Engine issues

    Just a shot in the dark but I would check the boost pressure in the intake manifold. The oil out of the hot side of the turbo, is it coming from the shaft seal or just blowing out with the exhaust?

    Brake bleeding problems

    The closest one will be there Monday, it was to late to have it today, and their truck doesn't run on Saturday. The guy that owns the truck, it's at his place of buisness and is not open on Monday. He's lurking here, maybe he'll sign up and say hi.
