or actual piston cooling nozzles installed ?
Engine dated 02-92
You betcha Al, at ERIKS . Please tell Erik I sent you.
Hit all the bolts w/ PB Blaster,
Pull the bottom 2 Muffler guard shroud bolts.
Slightly loosen the top 2 (just a bit).
Start at the top pipe w/ a 9/16" Deep on an impact at the clamp.
Remove top pipe.
Pivot muffler guard up pivoting on...
PB Blaster, now sold at HomeDepot is REALLY GOOD STUFF.
It is not mandatory but if you squirt just a taste perhaps a week
before and every time your close to it, letting it seep in and work
will turm you into a believer.
It does not take a LOT! Just enough to wet the threads. You can...
Well, I started at the top AND DANG GOOD THING I DID.
The mufflers uppermost flange was 50% rusted out! Not long and that
top pipe section would be falling onto the roadway, my luck
in front of a motorcyclist so off it all came up to the offending
joint.
I ordered up new gaskets and I am...
Guys I have a pretty good exhaust leak going on. While
it looks fairly straight forward in repair procedures I wanted
to ask a couple of q's perhaps of those whom have been
there done that before me.
The Magenta colored arrow points to the area where I have
a leak. It is from here back where...
If you make a way to pressurized the air system w/o the engine
running you can sometimes do said and hear a leak because the
engine is not running. I added a 1/2" brass tee at a PRV that is
before my Air Dryer, adding in a shrader valve so I can just
connect a shop air line to the truck and...
I added a pipe wrench to my tools for my M925A1.
I was rummaging through mountains of ISO beds cut
off M927 trucks heading to the scrap yard and found
this puppy totally rusted up, not one smidge of paint
left, only a rusted hulk. We took it home and massaged
it back to life, re-christened the...
I will try to come w/ my M925A1 .
I would love to convoy but that word is VERY BAD if used in the
wrong way w/ a patrol officer IMO. The way I understand it "convoys"
w/ the exception of legit Military, are "illegal" and should something bad
happen and a couple guys were to say they have been...
Thanx for the comment and critique' CT !
Glad to meet ya btw...
Did you see the gussets, the deals w/ stars cut into them inside left and right?
The 7" tall triangles ? The drops and gussets are .5" thick too.
Very observant FN!
I designed a hitch, had the parts water jet cut and bolted
them on along w/ a weld on cross bar 16,000 rated and
it came out quite nice. I'm not ready to release anything
yet, a minor hickup to remedy.
I will have pics when I am 100% w/ it ...
Some of the guys at...
When you drain your air tanks, the 4 valves on the PS
do you get air out of all 4 ports?
Do you get air, high pressure out of the PS rear gladhand?
Are all gladhands valve or capped?
I am NO PRO by far FWIW. I would like to know what
you find ...
My M925A1 is off about 8-9 mph as well.
It is pretty much standard on these trucks I am told.
Get a GPS and look at your spped with that. my new
magellan says I roll at 68.3-4 MPH on a flat road, pedal
to the metal.
It is more fun at about 50 real speed though...IMO
