Ok, more silly questions from the Kansan. I have put my hemat trailer behind the five ton for a few years works great!! I even pulled it with the het a few times. Finally hooked it up to the hemtt and no go. brakes wouldn't release. My brother who is a 20yr veteran of being a otr driver was...

Ok, got another question for anyone who might know. My oil pressure gauage, tach, and speedo are all dead I've put in a new sensor and gauge for the for the oil part. still nothing. Actually when truck is running and I rev it up the needle dips down instead of up. I tried switching the...

ok got back out to the truck. and just like you said gunzy, it was right there in front of me. Some lights worked some didn't. but It didn't take long to figure out that grounding issues where the problem. A couple of the marker lights I took off just crumbled into pieces...well the bases...

Hello all!! I hope not everyone is dealing with this cold blast that is coming into the mid west this evening. Short story long, I'm trying to get a few bugs worked out of the hemtt to take to the veterans parade in emporia ks. The founding city of veterans day her in America. Ok, as a person...

Got it started!! Drained and cleaned fuel separator, put in new primary and secondary filters, pressured the tank purged the lines... Started right up. And Holly Molly the filters looked terrible!!

thanks for all the info! I will start at the tank and work my way up, very possible filters are clogged, hose has a hole, etc. It will be a couple days till I can get back on this project. I will keep everyone posted, plus I like the idea of installing the priming thing. the 5 ton has one...

Hello all!! my 977 has been running great with no problems until lately, fuel issue! It will not even fake wanting to start. I've pulled of a rubber hose about 6" around and hit it with either and boom! It's ready to run. Now since I'm not a diesel expert and a guy that helps me with my...

Curious, does anyone have any suggestions on where to find "simple" parts? Like wiper blades and air dryer filter?? Thanks

Douh!! I knew it!!! Thank you so much everyone!! I will switch around today, and get back with you. Total rookie mistake!!

Ok, I've had the truck a couple of years. Always ran like a top!! Pulled the batteries to take with me on a HET recovery in south lousiania. Anyway, truck ran when parked in no grass by the house. Bought new batteries, installed them... and nothing!! checked volts, 25.7 every where I checked...

Glen, wondering if you might allow me to come up and look around?? I'll bring some green iron of yours back. Just have always enjoyed looking around and checking out the stock. BTW I'm painting the 925 for the convention in Topeka. My auto body buddy said " do you realize how big this thing...

I had similar problems... wouldn't engage, do what 74m35a2 said... should work.. then on to the next issue!!!

any idea on the temp outside as to when it starts?? mine won't start if its 42 or below without being plugged in... and I don't use either at this point.. always starts at 44.. all day long. Just an idea

ok... went and got parts today .... thank you Glenn for even having them... took yet another gearotor apart and it was to hard to spin by hand... but I do know.. or atleast i feel like it. I HAVE THE PARTS TO MAKE THIS WORK!!! Stay tuned... must be working in the next couple of days.

I'm stumped.... everything says the gearotor is to tight ... can't spin it with pliers... let alone by hand. I should be able to spin it by hand... Correct??? Stumped in Kansas... with veterans day fast approaching..

would it being so tall become an issue? like catching it on a tree?? Just thinking out loud.
