    A LOT easier way to check, first get the truck to op temp, make sure the level is correct, shut the truck down, let it sit till the next day, pull the stick, take a file and mark the COLD non running level. this way when you check the motor oil, you can check the trans also, the COLD level will...

    LDT 465 Multifuel. Andy3's Broken Camshaft

    I believe the hole in the block behind the last cam bearing is closed by a freeze plug, this would make it hard to pull the bearing. I used to use the stepped cam bearing install tool to pull the bearing by placing the correct install step BEHIND the bearing to pull it out, If you have the...

    m1070 battery master switch

    These are NOT the older non rebuilt HETS, it is the type A dash, type B dash has the standard two gauges (speedo and tac.), It does not matter which type of dash, some HETs have the battery cutoff switch to address the current drain. I have seen both rebuild and non-rebuild with the switch and...

    m1070 battery master switch

    Just a note to all you m1070 owners, even with the switch turned off there still is a current draw, the -10 for these trucks states that due to the current drew, the battery WILL drain down on trucks that are not used regularly, on some of the m1070s, a master power cut off for both 12v and 24v...
