    DOT3/4 vs DOT5 - Solicone vs. Glykol based brake fluid

    The fact is unless your M1123 had ABS it had DOT 5 in it and was marked so, since you cannot mix the two, in fact a complete rebuild of the system is recommended when switching between the glycol based and silicone based fluids and vice versa, he screwed up big time and now your complete brake...

    I don't see any corrosion, just mud Besides no brake system can go without maintenance

    DOT3/4 vs DOT5 - Solicone vs. Glykol based brake fluid

    Reliability IS the selling point of DOT 5, DOT 3 absorbs water and becomes corrosive

    DOT3/4 vs DOT5 - Solicone vs. Glykol based brake fluid

    One error I see is DOT 4 does not have a higher boiling point than DOT 5

    DOT3/4 vs DOT5 - Solicone vs. Glykol based brake fluid

    I will be willing to bet any vehicle that sat for 10-20 years with DOT 3 in it needs a complete brake overhaul, that is why the military uses DOT 5 Oh yes, what moron labeled a glycol based brake fluid DOT 5.1?????

    DOT3/4 vs DOT5 - Solicone vs. Glykol based brake fluid

    Sounds like BS to me. It is going to be expensive to completely flush that system, all the stuff that comes out must be disposed of.

    Fuel shutoff solenoid

    But if you are sure the solenoid is bad (measures open with an ohm meter) than here are a couple places I found that are reasonable. https://www.accuratediesel.com/store/p/298-Injection-pump-solenoid-Stanadyne-26387-24-Volt.html...

    Stuck Fan Clutch

    That is what putting the 90PSI is for so you can release the clutch and line up the cap screws behind the 4 holes.

    Stuck Fan Clutch

    OK I think see, you do not have the clearance to remove the fan so you are trying to pull the front off of the clutch? Sorry can't help you there.

    Stuck Fan Clutch

    I think you are going to have to remove the fan before the clutch. Not sure what 1/2" you are talking about please post us some pictures. The 90PSI releases the clutch not engage it. If you are talking about the nut in the center of the clutch that will not get it apart.

    Fuel shutoff solenoid

    If you hear it click the solenoid is not bad, it is more likely you have an IP problem. turn the run switch to run plug and unplug the most forward wire on the IP and see if it clicks. If it does click then sometimes you can pop the top off of the IP and see in the linkage is stuck. This takes a...

    It is not a good idea to ever use starting fluid on a high compression diesel.

    RT-246 and RT-524 bench breakout box

    So I tried the RT-246 in the MT-1029 base and still have the same issue in remote so now I am not sure if the radio has a problem or the lack of connected ancillary equipment is the problem.

    M998 STUCK IN THE MUD, FRONT WHEELS NOT EVEN ROTATING

    I saw a vid once that showed a guy setting up but not using a "wheel winch" it was pretty obvious it was not going to work. He did not have enough bend in the rebar to insure the rope would feed between the wheel and bar, the problem is if the bar had enough bend to work it would not fit through...

    RT-246 and RT-524 bench breakout box

    I picked up this breakout box off of Fleabay so I could test my radios with about 20lb shed in the form of the mounting base and when they are not in the vehicle. Everything works fine except on the RT246, if I put the radio in auto channel select or press the tune button is rolls down to min...
