    M923 shift point

    As it is now, I have to let up to get it to shift. I may try turning up the rpm, but is there no way of reducing the rpm of the shifts. I have be in some A1s and some of them shifted a very low rpms even though the 855 will only turn 2100 The 8.3 has plenty of power, to not have to spin the guts...

    M923 shift point

    I've got a m923A2 that will almost not shift out of 3rd gear. The manuals state the trans should shift at 300 rpm below max governed speed, but mine shifts right at the governed speed, all other shifts seem to be timed fine. I have searched and read several threads on adjusting the shifts via...

    Injector pump

    I just put a used injector pump on my deuce and as soon as I got the air bled, it cranked and went to full throttle, and I shut it down with the engine stop cable. but as soon as you crank the engine it goes to wide open throttle. I believe the governor is stuck at wide open, how can I fix this?

    GMC Hydramatic

    I've had good luck with running tractor transmission/hydraulic fluid, in auto transmissions, it can take much more heat before it starts to break down and it won't foam up, it also is much grabbier than most fluid, It is made to run in big power shift tranmissions in scrapers front end loaders...

    Engine Missing

    I didn't lose the plunger I put everything back together and it still seeps fuel and misses, do you know if there is supposed to be a washer type gasket on the bolt, because I don't have one on the bolt and no matter how tight I get the bolt it still leaks. Thanks

    Engine Missing

    My engine is now missing at idle up to 1500rpm, and 2100 to 2300 rpm but above that it still runs smooth, a 12 point 7/16 bolt on the side of the hydraulic head seems to be seeping fuel it is very tight but has no gasket, I don't know if it needs one though, I pulled the bolt out and there was a...

    Engine Missing

    Well today I rigged up a working fuel pump to the truck and I got a good amount of fuel pressure to the injector pump and the truck is still missing, Could the hydraulic head be the cause of the missing, but wouldn't it miss at all rpm, I'm stumped,

    New to the world of the Deuce

    I also tried to get more power from the Multifuel,the stock injectors flow plenty, If you max out the injector pump adjustment the EGTs will easly race faster than the rpm and that is with the bigger D model turbo, I thought adding timming would lower EGTs and it did but it also raised...

    Engine Missing

    My engine is missing/sputtering at about 1100 to 1400 rpm while under no load and at 2400 to 2600rpm while driving in overdrive, I have had my injectors rebuilt ,but my intank pump isn't working, I figure the high rpm stuttering is from starving for fuel, but why is it stuttering at only 1100 to...
