Definitely don't want to be doing any engine work because I messed up the coolant flush lol, no barn/pole-shed to work under lol. I never ever heard of the yellow/orange fluid before... definitely a newb to diesel engines that's for sure. Is that what you're running now? The green with SCA's...

- Is this the better option of the two? Organic-Acid over Conventional? I'm not sure what the standard would be. - How regular are we talking? Annually or does it go per mileage / engine-hours? - Do the ELC fluids already have the SCA's in them? I'm not sure about all this so am just...

Excellent, ty so much. Did you run the engine when you filled it up with hose-water / dish-soap to get everything churned up? Or did you just do a fill-and-drain until it came out clean?

Is the Green Low-Silicate Coolant already deluded? Or does it come in a concentrate and then you have to do the calculation per water ratio? I'm used to only adding Prestone 50/50 to all my vehicles for initial fill-up and top-off lol.

This is amazing and I'm certain this will bail out someone in the future who is nervous about doing this kind of work, A+ job Sir! Also to note, Amazon has some good 600 ft/lb torque wrenches for around $120, I picked one up to do the wheel lugs and I'm sure I'll be using it somewhere down the...

Dang I wish I was closer to you I would 100% give you a hand wrenching on it, that's the best way to learn lol. Good luck Sir

When able can you post more pics of the repair? I would love to see more removal/install pics 🙏

How did you do a manual setup for the CTIS? Do you just let it air up to Highway and then unplug the controller? I thought unplugging the controller lets all the release valves open? :unsure: Help a newb understand please lol.

To note on the switch order, I actually took off and painted the battery switch BRIGHT ASS RED as a visual reminder to not kill the engine with that switch first lol. Edit: I was actually going to do a "glow in the dark" green fluorescent to distinguish between the ignition and battery switch...

Hello and Good Day Gents, Just to preface this, I am in the TM (9-2320-272-24-1 section 3-150 “Coolant System Maintenance” so I have the Technical portion of the process in-hand. However, I have a few questions regarding the coolant system and am requesting some advice / wisdom from those who...

So driver side is for all air and aux items (like wipers / CTIS / etc.) and passenger side is just dedicated to brakes? Does that include the parking brake on the passenger side?

A newb question incoming, where do you hook up the truck to for pressurization? Is it the front passenger glad-hand connection?

Yeah it is quite a pickle to be in, also I realized if I change tire sizes now that would be 7 tires needed bc of the spare too lol, so I’m ok with the two fronts being a different brand for now if possible. I sent a message to Eastern Surplus yesterday they are actually only 40 minutes from my...

Ok good bc I wasn't sure due to them being a difference size (changing from 14.00R20 to 395/85r20 Mv/T ) if it would mess that system up, including highway PSI rating.

I hear you and definitely appreciate the information, 100% in consideration. If I did go with the option for the 395/85r20 Mv/T what happens with my CTIS system? Does it all translate over?

Thank you for the information, I don't know if I'm ready to replace all 6 tires at once when I really just have to replace 2, not sure that is a good option $ wise right now. I'll keep this in mind for the future when the 4 rear-axle tires start showing signs of failing, maybe I'll try to find...

How did you convert to that size? Will that tire size fit the same wheel-rim that I currently have for the 14.00r20? Are they the exact same size IE: can I run 395/85r20 Mv/T up front and keep the Four 14.00R20 on the back axles? Trying to make a good long-term move so I'll take any advice.

Hello and Good Day Gents, I need to replace both of my steering tires (Michelin 14.00R20 XZL) due to dry rot, had to install my spare tire on the drivers-side due to a small air-leak I noticed while out. The spare is also leaking too (Goodyear 14.00R20 Unisteel) so I need at least 2 (possibly 3...

Hello and Good Day Friends, I've been looking for a while and finally pulled the trigger and purchased a 1990 BMY M923A2, I have a bunch of questions about it lol. Mainly, looking to see what I should be doing as preventative-maintenance as the previous maintenance is not known (engine oil +...
