    Florida Permit/Inspection for MEP installation

    Thought the power company like FPL were offering and unit where that take out the meter and put in an adapter then plug the meter back in. Then you plug in you power to that.

    Denton NC Spring Rally 25-29 April 2018

    If I was not antisocial myself the location and people thing might hurt my feelings. I do like the GA. get together but the dirt bikes buzzing around keeps the noise level during the day buzzing. I do like Denton with all the people and cool steam stuff to look at when my ADHD kicks in.

    Consise clear instructions on fuel adjust

    Glad you got it figured. As said the stud /wedge plate is spring loaded so you can leave the jam nut loose and take the truck for a tune up ride. Then when you find the amount of fuel you are comfortable with / EGT's then tighten up the jam nut and have fun. Also the pic that has no FDC the jam...

    Consise clear instructions on fuel adjust

    It's not a screw but more of a stud attached to a guide plate. Most of the time the OP breaks off the stud because the wrench was in contact with both nuts and they twisted it off. As said above just make sure the two wrenches are very thin and hold the inner nut from turning when turning the...

    Air lines cut.....tranny shifts early

    Yea most of the time when I drive a manual transmission I shift real close to the Governor to get the ground speed up fast. If I am just leaving the house and all the temps are not up yet I do the light pedal and let her shift at lower RPM. You might have to adjust the soft pedal and bring it up...

    Air lines cut.....tranny shifts early

    I took my Allison governor controlled out to fuel her up. The first to second shift was at 1600rpm doing a soft touch pedal and my hard pedal is 2100. I was playing around after I got fuel and was just soft pedaling and there was a small down hill. The last shift came in at 1000rpm because of...

    Air lines cut.....tranny shifts early

    Looks like the vents would work as long as your not fording but one would think you should have run vent lines.

    Start up problem

    The fuel control has to move free to operate the truck. To start the truck the fuel control has to be as far forward or the 7 O'clock position before it will start. This is wide open and when it starts the governor pulls it back to idle or 5 O'clock. If the fuel control is sticky but not frozen...

    problem air in fuel system

    Would seem that if air is a problem then it would have to be between the in tank pickup and the booster pump. How was the primary filter gasket on the bolt that holds that canister to the base?

    Air lines cut.....tranny shifts early

    What is your rpm when soft pedal? 1400/1500 does not seem to low for saving fuel. Was reading where someone said 1850/1900 rpm but that to me is too high for soft pedal if 2100 rpm is the governor. I lock my gears as you said if I need more braking or in town light to light also off road to keep...

    Air lines cut.....tranny shifts early

    On mine when the transmission is working correct if you give it part throttle it will shift early and if you put the peddle to the metal it should shift at close to 2000rpm for harder pulls. Think maybe you need to make sure the truck is road worthy then go out and drive it and see how she does...
