It’s Ben 27 years but I think that was where hy first 6.9 leaked wrecking havoc. Hydro lock, bent rod. 2 tear dons ,number 2 to fix vibration caused by bent rod. Adaptor plat that held the starter on first attempt to start when it hydro locked. Head was ok, resurfaced for peace of mind.
I have an old motor home (134,000 miles).I wonder what percent of them have a problem. 1994 Holidaiy ramberler 36 foot . 5.9 12 valve 230 factory horse. 6 speed Allison. 137000 miles. Needs some love but really puppy type love.
I read about 2 other ways. 1. A set screw just thru the dowell...
Most important - keep the trans COOL! Run an ext cooler. Add a temp gauge. You will know when it’s getting hot, and back off till it cools. It owed over 200000 on a Jasper rebuild. Sold it 10 years ago was still hauling hay when I last saw it. I ran 2 cooler in front of the radiator plumbed in...
This is kind of late. But I have delt with heat issues in hard working engines for years. I have read over and over about the benefits, reduced possibilities of sitting beside the road boiling over while your engine crackles and pops with steam boiling out of the radiator. My belief is that...
I don't think its a bad idea. Think about it when you let it shift under a load the clutch in automatic or hydraulically shifted transmissions and manual trannys with a clutch make more heat. (like riding a clutch) slippage causes heat (the absolute worst enemy of most machined especially manual...
Thanks Russ but with your experience I don't think you need a programmer - you have the knowledge to get it right with your knowledge and your throttle foot.
Your right Kevin I doit when I drive a car now- life time habit. It makes m quiver when I ride with some one that that pushes the throttle down and hold it steady thru the gears. I rode once with a guy that loaded his trailer heavy with scrap iron all the way to the junk yard I could hear it...
I had a Jasper reman. I puled a 30ft Goosneck low bed equip trailer. Occasionally over 22000 gross. And a few times over 25,000. I think it was in 2002 that I got the transmission factory installed. It also had a banks turbo. when I got home from the Jasper plant in Indiana I installed a temp...
The manual lock up mod is a great addition to make an E40D last. I towed heavy for a few years and my E40d was awesome ,with the lock up and a double tranny cooler. One serious point use it only when approaching highway speeds and remember under 30 UNLOCK IT it will stall an IDI and possibly...
May I chime in. I ran IDI's over the road years ago. One lesson IS USE a genuine ford thermostat -or you are asking for big trouble when the rubber meets the road. Check your Fan clutch. Watch for bubbles in the coolant if you loose water. These engines don't take much fancy to being...
I may also add That twice I found the header that bolts to the block wasn't flat. Check themwith a head guage - don't double up gaskets & add gobs of permatex. My fix I had a heavy piece of 3/4 plate that check out flat - a little valva lapping compound a lot of elbow grease and both headers...
Well 1st Its for sale make an offer. That was a case at the Pawnee show in OK. approx 15 years ago. I have some Case 300-500 series never finished them-Sumpin's goin to happen to them,just do't know what. I have 1 that needs a cylinder redone we used it around the home & one I never got to work...
Hi guys I haven't done any thing worthy of mention for many years, so I seen to feel my old school knowledge was outdated. Any wa I still have a new factory tailgate never painted or installed sheet metal only -I was going to use it on my 91 dually back in the day. What are thaey woarth? I am...
back in time I drove a white w/ 220 cum-mins for one 400 mile round trip.it just had no guts (I was used to a Mackw/5 speed maxidyne). By the 100 mile mark I could feel the power loss when I got to Albany to swap trailers with one carrying a beer load. Beer loads are hard pulling and...
Its been a long time but when its in so it will work right it is so close to the heater box that it will some times vibrate against the box when backing up up a grade with a loaded trailer.
There ya happy now :backoff

Ken we are always asleep , even thought we don't sleep. I'm pretty sure you know why I am up in the middle of the night.
I Know nothing about the engine. If anyone needs it picked up or whatever I will help where possible, for the cost of fuel. I also don't know the owner at all.
All fissided now !1
OK Ya'll hapeeeeee Now!! http://tulsa.craigslist.org/cto/4794022240.html
Try this -I guess I am too...
All I can say is Thanks Mike - you have done all of us a great service, and personally you have helped in obtaining some goals I had. you are appreciated very much.
Brian Welcome I used to be on a lot -but no longer own a truck - so my participation is nil now-a- days., I do dorp in...
Al search on ebay just as I described it. I need to get a couple pics. As soon as I can I'll take a couple pics & post them. Oh by the way -you can use it to make movies also as you zero in on your target. It is self lit so it works in the dark...
I was looking at the recent thread about the possibility of a leaking lift pump & the possibility of fuel in the oil. The post led to inspecting the rear of the engine for return line leaks etc. I should have posted this sooner.
I purchased a "5M Waterproof Tube Snake Endoscope USB...
!st if you suspect a bad lift pump don't drive it till you know. Check your oil is the level getting higher? Can you smell diesel fuel on the dipstick. They aren't real eexpensive and fairly easy to chane. On the other hand if you dilute your oil with fuel ,your engine is hard to change and...
I guess its all about weight - wind resistance - and hills ,determining your speed. I pulled a jd350 7 an oliver cletrac thru the hills of NW PA.It was working but when we got on the interstate we cruised pretty well. A good work out for the ole 91 Cc with an ATS turbo. On the other hand I...
