    M923A2 - Won't build air after 60PSI

    Is there a main valve to turn air off to the CTIS system on a M923A2 truck. I stopped the leak and the pressure does go up to 90 psi and just stops. But not leaks. I am thinking the air governer needs to be adjusted as it is new (replaced some 1 year ago).

    M923A2 - Won't build air after 60PSI

    Sorry about the late response. I use an air compressor to pressurize the trucks air system. At 65/70 PSI, I discovered a leak under the radiator. Probing around, I found a broken hose leaking air. I am in the process of tracing it. A visual inspection of the airline break, it does look like...

    M923A2 - Won't build air after 60PSI

    It is a M923A21. Had the Cummings 8.3 engine. I had the CTIS removed. I am suspecting we may have damaged this airline when we pulled and had the engine overhauled back in 2022. I use this truck maybe twice a year. Ill check tonight on the airline placements. Thanks!

    M923A2 - Won't build air after 60PSI

    I have been working on and off with an air problem on my M923A2. My truck will not go past 60 PSI on idle and 90 PSI when I have the RPMs at 1800. When the truck is under power (on the road), it will reach 120 PSI. I have replaced the governor, air compressor and air dryer – same issue. I...

    M923A2 Fan Clutch Repair - Any Clutch Gurus Out There?

    Found a new fan clutch for $1100. Now to head back to Death Valley and work on the truck in +95F temps. Truck will have a new radiator, new fan impeller and new fan clutch. Hopefully this will all be behind me. Do plan to switch over to an aluminum radiator here shortly.

    M923A2 Fan Clutch Repair - Any Clutch Gurus Out There?

    Yeah, figured as much. Once I discovered the bent shaft, I knew it was over and a new one was in order. I pm the individual here who said he had a few but no response yet. Yes, ordered a new fan impeller. Other was damaged.

    M923A2 Fan Clutch Repair - Any Clutch Gurus Out There?

    Not sure what you mean by fan number. I did call kit masters and they could not help with any of the numbers I provided them from the TM's. They sent me a picture of what "they" thought, but it was not the right kit.

    I priced out an aluminum radiator and the cost was close to $1700. Checked with two radiator shops. Not sure how you came to $700, but very interested.GIJOEL

    M923A2 Fan Clutch Repair - Any Clutch Gurus Out There?

    Had a catastrophic failure with the air clutch. The failure caused the radiator fan impeller to break loose and cut deep into my radiator. Regrettably, I was 100 miles away from any major help. In order to get it to a safe location, I manage to pinch and fold the fins/ribs of the radiator as...

    Frying Alternators

    Will that work on the M923A2 engine? Anyways, I can purchase a 400 AMP 12/24VDC alternator. What would happen if I replaced the one that fired with one of these? Could I cook my batteries?

    We ran a new wire from alternator to isolator. So it cant be a short.

    Frying Alternators

    I am at my wits end... I have fried two alternators and cant figure out way. I have an original 60AMP M923A2 alternator installed in truck. From this, I took the B+ lead from alternator directly to a battery isolator which goes to two different battery banks. First battery bank is composed...

    Battery Isolator hook up

    Thanks! That is what we thought. I may upgrade to a 100AMP alternator. Circuit breaks will be installed all around... I learned that a long time ago!

    Battery Isolator hook up

    I may have cause some confusion with my original post. I plan to run two battery banks. One will be primary for the truck and the secondary will be for the camper. I purchase the battery isolator as to charge the primary bank first and the camper bank secondary. Since I am using the 24V...

    Battery Isolator hook up

    I'm in installing a battery isolator on an M923/A2 truck. Reviewing the manuals, we "think" we have it figured out... but because we have some doubt, I decided to confirm it here. Can someone please provide instructions on what wire lead, from alternator, is to be removed and hooked up to...
