Do believe there should be a quick release valve somewhere in the frame work if your is a 939 series.

All good points. If someone wants to tow it for you make sure they have the proper insurance for towing in your state. Also if you find you want to get a trip tag and insurance you will also have to service the truck. Here you will need to bring such things a oil. correct antifreeze, Trans...

The number one thing that causes fires = Alcohol and Boredom

What is the number one thing that causes fires.

Bad idea or a maybe?

Now I have poured over the FED DOT rules and it says nothing about the towed truck having a brake away system that will put on the parking brake if it becomes uncoupled, only trailers. Yes it would be nice if they were not caged and if a brake away happened they would come on. I will say I found...

Is this the correct way to find out the kinetic energy that we really have to deal with. Think some forget about this and just say my truck says my pintle can pull that no problem or data plate says it can carry this much. You need service brakes on the tow working but figure they will give out...

As said Med. tow bar kept short is all you need. Correct size and grade 43 or better on the chains and make sure they are safety hooks that can not come undone if the crap hits the fan. Keep them as short as possible and not twisted around the tow bar or twisted. I my self would put the combo in...

Yep.. I was just trying to say that just driving is not a good test even going to a hill and running up it. To check boost the best way seems to be hold the motor at the given RPM while it is under a load and full throttle. A dyno would be great but even the 465 lds trouble shooting manual shows...

That would made more sense than having to have it to start the truck or keep it running.

A truck running on a flat will not show much boost so you have to have lots of drag. It can be done with the brakes or tie four old dead Blue Whale's together and try and drag them around the yard. This should be enough drag if not add more Whales.

Thought it is really a run solenoid and when it get power it holds the IP open in the idle position so it is needs to be there and can not be removed if bad just replaced. Could the shaft of the solenoid sticking and lube make a difference. Think I might try some WD40 on it and see if it ever...

You can get 14 to 15 with the main and the smoke cam left alone. Believe they just tried to clean up the exhaust at idle to try and meet the EPA emissions. That is why I do the main and if I have two much smoke on take off I back the fuel on the droop screw setting clockwise. If we go counter...

All the IP's have a smoke cam adjustment but not all have the droop screw. The droop was added I believe so minor adjustments could be made to the lower rpm range without having to take off the FDC. Most of the time if you raise the main fuel ( twin nut) you will lower the droop setting as you...

I think he should leave the smoke cam alone in less he does not have a droop screw. The main fuel ( twin nuts ) control everything top and bottom end. The droop controls around 1600 to 2100 rpm. In most cases if we raise the main we have to lower the droop as there will be to much waist of fuel...

Does look good and looks like a good axle spacing.

:lost:Your welcome but I am surprised I got it most of the time I am wrong, forgot or just plain lost.

First page # 15 and it goes on top. NSN10896717 spacer set upper bearing.

When you put on the spindle caps / bushings where did you put the spacer? Top or bottom.

I got this one from them. Has 50 / 220 30 / 110 and 110 GF. http://www.homedepot.com/p/GE-100-Amp-3-Space-3-Circuit-240-Volt-Unmetered-RV-Outlet-Box-with-50-30-20-Amp-GCFI-Circuit-Protected-Receptacles-GE1LU532SS/203393689
