    CTIS 5 flashing lights, no air leaks, no mechanical faults.

    There is a over pressure valve on the side of the valve body. That can go bad and leak. There are o rings in the valve body that can leak out the side of the valve body. But if you already swapped out the controller and valve body with tested good ones then chances are that's not your issue. The...

    CTIS 5 flashing lights, no air leaks, no mechanical faults.

    If it goes to 5 flashing lights after the initial pressure check, chances are you have an air leak somewhere. Wheel valve o ring, hub seal something like that. It could also be not enough air feed to the valve body. Clean out the catch trap. Turn up the air governor to 135 psi.

    Options for higher top speed?

    How fast are you looking to go? My M923A2 can roll along smooth highway at 65. Thats plenty fast for me. Bumpy highway you will bounce around alot its harder to control.

    Crimp tool and mods for packard connectors

    I found a small automotive terminal crimper works well for the female connectors. A good snapon or like. Not the thin universal ones with screw cutters. The aero crimper is a must for the male ones.

    M923A2 air leak at air tank pressure protection valve

    The air dryer has a coalescing filter element that works to dry the air then purge it out the bottom valve. The filter needs to be replaced yearly.

    Fuel Filter Change Procedure... Please double check me?!

    It takes a while to fill the big cannister in the wheel well up with the hand primer. On the A2 trucks maybe 50-70 pumps.

    M923A2 air leak at air tank pressure protection valve

    Good. You have moisture in your air system you need to service your air dryer and make sure you drain the air tanks daily.

    Mini Soldering Torch, Recomendations?

    You need a good electric soldering iron with a pointed tip. Anything with open flame wont work out well.

    M923A2 1993 model

    Find a reputable tow yard/mechanic to recover and go thru it add fluids make sure all is safe. You can then go pick it up from them. I believe there are some members in that area that have threads here.

    ARB 5 ton locker

    16:00 tires with CTIS on an A2

    It is adjustable via a computer program. Which is available for download online. If you could only find the Y cable that plugs in between the harness and controller you would be all set. This cabłe was only sold in combination with a controller upgrade package.

    m939a2 starting problem in cold weather

    Do you have the ether bottle installed? It goes by the wiper fluid reservoir. You have to press the cold start button then crank. It's nice to have in case you need it but moderation is key with ether. Too much can do damage.
