Thanks Guyfang I will look into that as well. Really apricate all the help from everyone. Just curious if it was a problem with the speed sensor I could see that causing the high RPM's, would this still be the case with none of the electrical shutoffs working to stop the motor? Does a speed...

Thanks Ray. That sounds like a good idea. What am I going to be looking for as I plug the injectors back in individually? Change in smoke? it shouldn’t be able to fire with only one injector plugged in correct? Also does the black liquid that was raining out of the exhaust typically happen on a...

1400 hours on the digital display 974 hrs on the mechanical next to the fuel tank. I agree on the turbo leaking as being a potential external fuel source. But, with me having the intake hose disconnected at the engine doesn't that takes the turbo out of play and thus the possibility of getting...

Hey guy scratching my head here. Finally got the replacement fuel return line for my MEP-1070 I pick up at govplanet as a non runner. Anyways went to start it for the first time for me and it was sputtering and producing lots of smoke. Noticed that most of the injector lines where loose so I...

http://apps.dmv.ca.gov/forms/reg/reg17a.pdf See section 2 far right side of the page. On the second page under historical vehicles where it talks about parades, events, ect it say you need to have the certificate of title . I'm thinking this is probably what they mean by documentation, but just...

I know this is a old thread, but I had a quick question that I didn't see answered in the 7 pages. On the CA DMV Special License Plate Application form under section 2 where you select Historical Vehicle it says to attach copy of documentation and certify sections A, D or E. What are you guys...

Hard to say. The good state of CA is in the process of banning all 2010 and older trucks do to new air quality regs. I dont know if you could bypass these reg with a historical vehicle reg or not. But currently all trucks with a gvwr over 26,000 and older than 1996 will be outlawed by 2015...

A few things to consider being in CA. If you register them as on road you will have to register them with the Air Reasources Board by the end of this month. By 2015 you will have to start upgrading your fleet to 2010 or newer engines or put PM filters on the trucks. I dont think you could even...

Just trying to confirm the spline count on my 5 ton axles without pulling them apart. The rears on my M818 are Model: M240-HX15 Serial Number 0003610 and 0003609. The front is Model: FM240-HX17 Serial Number 42. I did a quick search and it looks like these would be a 16 spline. Can anyone...

She fired right up! Thanks for all the help guys. Would have been scratching my head for sometime without all of your help.

Great info guys! If i cranked the engine over without resetting the emergancy t handle would it have lost its prime? Do I have to start cracking injectors or is there a pump somewhere? Or so I just reset it and try cranking her over?

Wow thanks for all the help guys. Ill get some manuels printed off and try to take a look at it this afternoon.

That he did! I pushed the T handle back in, but Ill go pop the hood when its not pooring outside. Where the best place to get a manual? Thanks for the responces!

Well the M818 showed up Monday. Started up fine on the trailer, ran great minus the fumes in the cab (possible exhaust leak) but I went to start it yesterday and it just cranked. I am brand new to these so I dont know if there is some special starting sequence or if every truck has its own...

Great! Sounds like he will be a one stop shop for my tire and rim needs. With these rims will the front and rear tires track in the same spot?
