Ok, so I need to adjust the linkage (throttle and/or trans) to get it to shift into 5th gear. Can anybody tell what is the procedure for adjusting said linkage(s)?
Is there certain or specific steps that need to be followed to get the proper adjustment?
Yes, all other lights work, although I did have to replace 3 marker light bulbs when I first got the truck, but they all light up and function properly, just not the headlights?!
No I haven't changed it. I just might try that. Thank you for the suggestion.
I have tried the switches in every position, but to no avail. Robert (Those Military Guys) told me to check the the wires to see if I was getting any volts through the wires with my volt meter, which there is 24v on the low and high on both the left and right.
Thanks for the response. No, I...
When I purchased my 923A2 it had 2 series 75 12v batteries that the previous owner (he thought the old batts. were 4 - 6v and that 2 - 12v would work better) had installed 3 months prior. Three months after purchase (6 months total) they were dead. Wouldn't hold a charge. Low and behold I...
Thanks for the link. I'm going to follow the procedures outlined in that thread. Hopefully that will put my truck back on track?!
Thanks for the response and info. I did not think about the torque converter locking up. That may very well be the "shift" I am counting?!
Thanks for the response...
I have no headlights on my 923 and the blue bright light indicator stay on when I turn the light switch on. All wires are connected properly (#'s matching), but the left side headlight is burned out.
I bought the HID headlight kit from Those Mil Guys (TMG), but I do not want to put them in...
I will look at it and see. Thanks for the info, much appreciated! I, too, will look for those posts on adjusting the cable. If you find them, can you please forward them to me?
Thanks,
I hear and feel it shifting through the five gears, but I will give it a look. Where is the cable from the injection pump to the Trans located? I know where the pump is located.
Yes to all questions.
Engine gets up to 23-24 rpm at 45 mph in 5th gear, drops to 21-22 rpm at 40 mph in 4th gear. The turbo does spool up and down properly as well.
Turbo does spin freely. I checked it when I had to clean the oil out of the intake and turbo cooler from air filter being...
Hey Guys,
This is Tactical Nomad. I am the guy with the M923A2 that I'm having trouble with. Robert (Those Military Guys) has been a great help over the phone, but I am having issues with my 5-ton.
I have owned many Ford 6.9L & 7.3L 3/4 & 1-ton diesels, and I have experience with the Cummins...
