I wasnt going to bid unless they would push the trucks onto a drop deck and when nobody...

Adiabatic trucks were five ton 813s with the cummins 250s.

If Im not mistaken there is an idle adjustment on the top of the IP it could be all the way open.

Just say it needs to be saved or it goes to the scrapper next week.

No seals injector lines are compression fit just get them back on straight and if you cant turn them back onto the pump by hand be careful you might be cross threading them.

Make sure your intake gaskets are for the J code engine.
