If it's not the hydraulic head then the governor is not kicking it and allowing the "Plunger Sleeve" to move from the full drain position.

You cannot even give away a car to your own brother without paying taxes on it ! I gave my brother our old 1999 Honda Civic since his old car has over 470,000 miles on it ! That's right almost half a million miles ! The old thing is barely holding together though, so they desperately needed a...

It isn't so much the weight but the "commercial" aspect of it. Look at all the hub-bub from the "Uber" and other taxi services. It is all about the city and state getting their share of the money !

WOW ! That has gone down considerably since I last bought a couple of gallons from them.

I agree that is a good starting point.

You can also dedicate that air-tank to what ever you want to use it's air for. Need air for your air-horns ? Get a separate tank and a protection valve and your good to go. Most all trucks and buses use dedicated tanks for the air-bags and auxiliary systems like the bus doors and wipers. The way...

It would still need to get past the oil seal. Of course it could cause the oil seal to fail !

The correct TM is "TM 9-2910-226-35" . You can check the status of your governor springs by unbolting the two end cap bolts and removing the cap. The two springs will come out along with their shims so be careful and make sure you have everything and nothing drops into the ground. They...

So do you own them or does the museum own them ?

As far as getting a larger air-compressor "Peashooter" and I think "Jeepsinker" also added one to their trucks and I believe they work fine. PM him and see what he did.

I have never found any credible information that said the 14 bolt could be rated to 10,000 Ibs. If you have this I would really appreciate it if you could post it. One thing you didn't mention about the Dana 70HD was it's larger carrier bearings and 35 spline shafts. They are larger then any 14...

I thought he was talking about a Harley too when I first read the title !!!

The boost pump relief valve could be stuck. Since the filters had not been changed for such a long time the boost pump could have a lot of junk inside it. During this injection pump build-up of mine I found one of the booster pumps had broken the drive shaft due to "crap" in the housing. The...

Do you still have the old Hydraulic Head ? Install it and see if it still does the RPM drop thing. Also could be the governor is messed up.

These pumps are rated for "continuous" duty up to 150 psi. That means they will not stop until they reach 150 psi. After that they must rest. They have "plastic" seal rings on the piston and the rings will melt if they get to hot. I've replaced a few of them myself. Also the electric motor will...

There are plenty of vent fittings you can get. Summit Racing sells quite a few. Just type in "NPT vent plug".

Mine came with one as did many others I've seen and worked on. What I think happened is when the shop mechanics serviced them they would check for fluid leaking and then forget to reinstall them. Left loose the hose would flop around until eventually falling off. I know for a fact that any truck...

One last thought before you jump on the 14 bolt bandwagon. The Corporate 14 bolt has a tube diameter of 3.25" and a GAWR of 8,600 Ibs. The Dana 70HD has a tube diameter of 4.00" and a GAWR of 10,000 Ibs. It is far superior in strength and handling due to the wider stance and if your going to be...

There is only one way to clean-out the vent tube without dismantling the transmission and that is to take out the dip-stick and using a shop air-nozzle gently blow into the tube. Most air-guns have a rubber nozzle which will seal against the tube. Have someone at the vent and feel for any air...
