Fuel issue has been resolved. The #5 injector seat was leaking by causing the fuel to become aerated. Reseated all the injectors and adjusted the fuel rack. Runs great now.
I have an M813A1 that has broken two bell housings in the past year. Prior to breaking the first one, I plowed snow for many years with no issue. It’s all stock and the fuel pump hasn’t been turned up or otherwise modified. If my sprag isn’t working properly could it cause enough driveline...
I've not installed a check valve yet. I'm waiting for the water separator base to come in. Fuel is clean and free of algae. I've pulled the pickup tube as well. No obstructions from the tank to the injector pump. I'll be putting a pressure gauge on it to check the condition of the pressure...
I've replaced all the rubber lines and notice little to no change. I have a new water separator ordered. Local Parker Store told me they couldn't get it.
I'll change all the lines. The supply line appears to be newer than the others but also looks smaller in diameter? What is the correct size supply line? Can't imagine that it should be smaller than the return.
It appears to be. I've also noticed that if it sits for a couple days, it sounds like it's getting some air in the system when I first start it. The primer bulb doesn't feel tight either after it sits.
My M1090 seems to have very low fuel pressure at the IP as it almost stalls under any load. It acts like it just isn't getting enough fuel. I've changed both filters with no change at all. It runs at wide open throttle while sitting still in neutral but as soon as I start to drive it empty, it...
Thanks. So there should be no lines connected to the vent on the underside of the cab correct? It should vent to atmosphere if I’m understanding this correctly.
Thanks. That's what I thought too but I could only find the supply and left brake lines. After further looking, it appears that the right brake line was connected to the bulkhead fitting in the attached pictures. It was only hand tight and is the exact length to go to the QR valve. Maybe the...
I found the thread you're referring to. The pictures and info all appear to be the check valve and Tee in the emergency gladhand line. The part I'm missing bolts to the bracket in the picture I posted. It's located behind and to the lower left of the service gladhand. The bracket is welded to...
I have an M1090 that's missing some sort of air valve that's located just behind and below the front service gladhand. There are two 3/8" airlines that have been connected to each other prior to it getting to me that appear to have once gone to the valve. The TM shows a front axle QR valve...
