can you take a picture of where you split the line for the dual fuel, I feel like I am pioneering my way through this since I cannot find any hard fast how to's or pics on the net. What kind of line did you use, I assume pressure fittings to keep it from leaking, a parts list would be nice if...
speaking of which you have a very nice collection, I already asked stewart if I could come over and see his tracks, I would love to see that M.A.N. they did not have any of those when I was in the service.
I would not take that personal, I don't think he meant you, I think he was talking in relativity to how someone can build a shelter and expect someone to have the expendable income available to purchase something like that, at least that is what I got from his comment. Us PNW boys gotta stick...
yes to the #1, the theory is that by the time the fuel reaches the #1 cylinder since it starts from #6 the pressures is pretty low, by doing the mod you only gain horse power that should have been there to start with and I think it decreases the chance of a lean burn.
oh yeah I figured that, 6 turns is the max I will go. I am thinking around 75hp, the 20 ish comes from the dual fuel lines, just makes sure every cylinder gets its fair share is all.
No I have not done any buttons, I do not plan to. This is in place of the button, I visited with a cummins pump guy here locally and he said that he would recommend adding fuel before adding pressure, he also gave me a bunch of shims and told me 30rpm per shim. I truly believe that these...
by the way since I know it will come up many will want to know what this actually does. Well the fuel that enters the pump first passes through the throttle shaft. The screw that you adjust limits the amount of fuel that can be sent to the injectors, when you open that choke point up it allow...
Well, I may very well the first person in the world to actually post a picture of where these items are and how to do it, I could find plenty of half baked descriptions but no pics anywhere so this was a praying moment for me. I talked to Ross REB87 Who saved me from drilling the item that I...
I don't know if you have considered this by it sounds like a 12' communications shelter in the back would be a better choice, you can even remove if for resale or multiple truck use.
Here is a pic of one I built, it had a 9' M105 bed on it that I deleted the wheel wells and a crane behind the cab. Your crew cab set up would be close to filling the gap that I had left. It was a great functioning truck and drag was never an issue. If you compare it to a singled out truck...
this is why I am hesitant to be concrete on my answer but I have never seen a hydraulic reservoir or lines going to one so I can't be certain. Where as on the M35A3 its all up front and visible.
it sounds like to want to have one's cake and eat it too, either you bob it to save tire sear, better ride, better turning radius or you don't and deal with the repercussions either way, With surplus tires selling anywhere from 200 to 350 a piece I don't think tire wear (unless its a daily...
No the 900 series is still pto, just the m35a3 is hydraulic afaik. To convert it is not a big deal, you can go here to find the odds and ends to put it together. As far as what motor, I would call those guys and quiz them, its a little over my head. Typically you could just run a motor with...
Yes that is correct it is two identical pumps joined together by a removable splined shaft. You can take the pump apart and remove the rear pump and put it back together. The gaskets are reusable, you will need to buy 8 shorter hex bolts and locktite everything back together, takes about 15...
