Just got my first smartphone a galaxy s5. I tried the tap_a_talk thing and couldn't figure out how to get around SS on it. So I've not been using it. So I'm trying to post pics and when I select browse in the full page up loader it doesn't give me a gallery option to pull from, and that's where...
Did a kids birthday party, they did Lazer tag it was a hit.
Anyone know how to upload a pic from your phone if you're not using tap a talk? I can't get to my gallery where the pic is saved.
Sure thing, let me get to some WiFi tomorrow and I'll do a new thread with both of them.
I think i'm going turn my pump down a half turn, it has GREAT power but I think the Trans will suffer in the long run. It really surges when it up shifts instead of pulling down the engine some.
I've had the M35A2 and loved it, But I like my 5 ton M923A2 better! More room in the cab, Power steering, conventional 8.3 Cummins instead of the obsolete LDT-465-1C, Air brakes, Bigger tires 14.00's on mine, 70+ MPH!!!!!, better fuel mileage, and it's bigger than the M35! It does have a auto in...
Just a pipe elbow (don't remember the size) and a bushing to reduce it down to 1/16 NPT and then one of those 1/16NPT valve adapters. I found everything I needed at my local big truck parts store for cheap.
Gotcha, So I've adjusted the top screw some and I backed out of the throttle on my next test drive after getting 35 psi of boost and not having it at full throttle. So how much boost is too much for this engine stock to take or is it not capable of making enough to hurt it? The exaust temp...
On a MW pump will adjusting the preboost star wheel affect the exaust temp? And is so how much generally does it affect it per ?click? or movement? Fixing to adjust mine tonight since I just got done with my boost and Egt gauges.
That info in post #58 is wrong those are too small, I got them out last night and had a couple of the original injector shims with it but it'll be tomarrow before I can measure them for you. Been in a deep dark turd filled hole all day....WoooHooo
Sure, I'll get them out of my tool box and measure them tonight if my batteries are good in my caliper. I didn't just use the 0.1mm shims on mine I had some thicker ones also, they come as assortment of sizes. I just mixed and matched until I got the right pressures. I've not been able to find...
White owl equipment had the nozzles when I did mine but I was able to clean them all easily enough. I had a injector rack that holds the injector in a cup that I filled with carb cleaner while I was waiting to disassemble and clean them, and then the rest polished off with a rag soaked in carb...
To answer your brakes question, M35A2 brakes are air over hydro, and the M925A2 should have airbrakes very similar in operation to other large air braked vehicles. It will not have the yellow brake release nob on the dash, instead it's built into the parking brake lever. Don't push the black nob...
Make sure you have a clean title!!!! Where are you in VA??? I live in the northeast corner of NC and would be willing to let you get some hands on mine, and even help you with recovery if your close.
Check out this thread that I did on rebuilding the fuel injectors! http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?112670-Fuel-injector-Rebuilding-testing-and-TM-and-compression-testing&highlight=fuel+injector+rebuilding
I had axcess to the tools and found the hardest part was finding shims to...
Here we have 2 truck pulls a month within 30 miles of me, they have everything from the mini rod lawnmowers to the smoker single engine tractors, to the unlimited 4x4 gas and diesel trucks. We also have the Grave Digger shop and the Dennis Anderson owned Muddy Motorsports Park that has a event...
Pulled my M923A2 Sat. night at the truck pull. The track was very hard and tacky. The first pull I forgot 6x6 but also let it shift to 2nd, around the 275 mark it downshifted and I stopped it. The 2nd time I kept it to 1st and had the 6x6 it was slow going after about the 250 ft mark but she...
I removed all the ctis from my M923A2 if anyone is interested in the weights, they're for sale in the classifieds. I had no shimmy before and none now and I run up to 72 MPH in mine.
