    M920 made it home!

    Scar59 thank you sir! Im gonna try to save it rather than swapping it out for sure. I suspect either the lower liner seals or the oil cooler to be the culprit. I know that usually oil cooler failure will cause oil in the water scenario as the oil pressure is higher but the previous owner...

    M920 made it home!

    KK thank you sir! When Im at that point I will certainly shoot you a PM. I read several of the m920 specific threads I found before I purchased it and the Hemtt wheels seem to the the wheel of choice. I understand some modification of the drum is required. But im a good ways away from tires at...

    Truck transported from SE Nebraska to West Texas

    KK I actually found several people willing to tackle the job for the $2,000 budget. I also had many that were substantially higher. The highest estimate I got was 4300$. The biggest challenge I had was coordinating the pickup with the sellers schedule. He requested a 3 day notice before pickup...

    M923 White smoke and knocking

    Yeah I would like to avoid putting any Windows in my block if I Can . Thats crazy that it let go after only knocking for 3 seconds maybe it had been knocking for awhile? Hope my engine doesn't wind up the same. Was that the wrist pin or crankshaft side of that rod?

    M923 White smoke and knocking

    Gimpy thanks for the advice. I do plan to have the injectors cleaned and adjused but I was hoping to figure out the knock before I invested any substantial amount of money into this engine. Maybe ill just bite the bullet and take them to get serviced. Is it possible that a stuck or badly firing...
