Thanks Ronmar , I will check it out tonight

I got it to turn, I was gentle with a pair of cannon plug pliers ... thanks for the help

Thanks, I meant to say drain the water. Should the knurled connector be rock-tight?

Getting ready to do a fuel system filter change "first-time new owner" and had just a quick question does the knurled connector on the bottom of the fuel water separator turn to drain the fuel ? I only ask because it's very tight and I don't want to break it off accidentally. I looked in TMs and...

Never had issues with them even with all the dust and dirt and two theaters of use / Did blow up one when the camera had short and it made a very loud Bang

I used to use that same Astron as a Power supply for our aircraft camera on the test stand when in the sandbox

Funny that's what I do as well I just open the app on my phone, but I like the idea of the GPS speedo

I believe I found it Thanks for the help

Thanks but there is still nothing on taking the selector valve off to replace the small oring, on the inside of the valve ( suspected culprit ). Looks like there is a pin under the selector valve that holds the valve together

There are only four selector knobs on the Hydraulic Manifold to get specific it will be the Spare tire Raise and lower selector

I did some searching but cannot find how to get the selector knob off of one of my Valves, it seems it has a slow drip and from what I've seen I need to get the knob off to get at a small o-ring in the valve assembly. With the huge price markup on items for these trucks, I don't want to break...

Thanks for the info , greatly appreciated

Normally I would agree but I wanted to travel next January for at least 6 months and now I am working through the truck systems preparing for the trip

Thanks for the info, Im curious about the DEX VI is that another viable solution? I ask because the spreadsheet mentions Dex III and Mobile ATF D/M . Just wan to make sure I change it out with the right fluid when I do it

So my 1078 has 17500 ish miles on it, it is 1994 so I'm a little leary of swapping out fluid when the transmission has had oil in it for 30 years / I know it's better for it but I get scared it will screw the transmission up . Thoughts on people doing this with these older trucks
