    Need Assistance! MEP-003 failure!

    If the charging/control circuit breaker is tripped, it may be a bad noise suppressor on one of the fuel pumps. Seen it before. They can be eliminated completely. Test first.

    Broke Down in Billings Montana - Need to find a shop that can replace wheel cylinders

    Here is a front seal number for the crankshaft. It was listed on the old cross reference list on the site. Might save you time, if you need it. 417350 Simply google " 417350 seal"

    Did the 12 volt conversion. Made a funny video of the first start. Enjoy.

    That sounded like a lot of cranking. It took 5 seconds. I would expect it to take half that or less. What did you convert to 12 volts? Nice video, did you actually meet Gandhi?

    No turn signals on M927

    Want to feel even less dumb? Read the basic operators manual(-10), before touching the truck again. I guarantee you will learn more than you ever thought you would. It can help you save money too.

    Deuce hard start

    Stop using ether. Confirm the hydraulic head is timed correctly. 5 minutes on ether, it may be too late to save this one. Several members have installed the HH 180 out and used ether, only to find they ruined the engine. Same symtoms as you descibe.

    ATF red dye?

    I'm wondering to what extent did they test. I'd like to know the science of this situation. Not that this would hold up in court but, think of the hundreds of gallons of fuel we do buy and use in off road equipment(mowers, tractors, generators etc...) that we do pay road tax on. In this...

    Broke Down in Billings Montana - Need to find a shop that can replace wheel cylinders

    A manifold heater can not pump fuel into the base while the engine is running. It's impossible. Is your FDC bypassed? Diluted oil would be my suspicion. Front crank seals leak and make a mess, as well as rear main seals. Whatever you do, be sure to provide any shop that does work on it...

    How do I know if my M927 was rebuilt

    Tags in the door are mostly MWO tags, they are not indicative of a "rebuild". Post pictures, not links. That link will go dead eventually. This is a site rule.
