Hi, I have a M817 dump with the NHC-250 engine. I need to move it a little way and would like to top off the coolant. I'm not planning a flush/fill at this time. What coolant is compatible with the original? thank you

Replied!

Mine is doing the same. Were you able to fix it? Any tips or part numbers? What did you have to take apart, the axel or just the ctis valve? Thank you

Can you tell me where the CTIS control unit is located or a picture? Do I need a kit to rebuild it, or is it a matter of cleaning and lubing? The truck only has 2800 miles so it should not be worn out, but maybe froze up or dried out.

Thank you so much! It was the KN25060. I'll get one ordered and the KN23000 too. The KN25060 had a plastic/rubber diaphragm inside that was hard and a circle cracked open. Somehow that prevented air going to the spring air tank. I took the diaphragm out and put it back on so I can at least move...

Hi, I have a M931A2. I was driving down the road everything was fine, then it started slowing down. Eventually I figured out that the spring brakes had applied. After reading above, the spring brake tank has no pressure. I pressurized through the drain line with a compressor, and the spring...

I finally (after 6.5 years) got to this project. I removed the tool box. It has a fuel can holder which adds 4 rusty bolts that need removed. I also removed the two bolts holding the value to the floor so it could drop down and be easier to work on. As mentioned above, the main fuel lines are...

I have a couple problems with getting it hauled. 1) last couple times I had something picked up, GL sent units that were missing a lot of parts and not working. They did not match the pictures. Their contract says that once you pick it up, its yours even if it is a totally different item then...

I read the TM and answered some questions. I would really like to hear about member's experiences with the CTIS and low tires, and anyone driving into AZ or in CA. I do not have a CDL but plenty of experience driving trucks. If driving for recreational purposes I don't believe a CDL is required.

Yesterday, I won a GL auction on a M931A2 in Fontana CA. I have 2 other 5 tons (1 dump 1 cargo) but they have NDT tires, standard trans, and the non-turbo engines. I wanted one with super singles, an auto trans and a turbo. This one is a 1991 BMY. A couple of the tires are low in the GL...

I don't remember where I found it, but I have a copy on my computer. If you PM your email address I can sent it to you. It is a user's manual. I still have a couple of these that I would like to sell!

You might also want to call white owl trucking. I bought several small parts from them and thought that they were reasonable.

Thank you! When are you starting your next thread. I would like to understand the point of these EUCs.

Of course I would get some more opinions before holding the throttle open to see if the governor works!

They should have a govenor so that you really can't over rev them unless perhaps going down a steep hill with the engine holding you back. In arizona one of the emission tests is to floor them in neutral and check the emssions. I think mine would rev to a little over 3000.
