The smoking and the fuel shutoff not working, immediately suggest an alternative fuel source - i.e. crankcase oil. In most cases, leaky turbo oil seals allow the engine to suck oil into the intake through this pathway. If that is the case, closing off the air supply is the only way to stop the...

My Deuce kept puking oil down through the bell housing, especially after spirited runs. Typical was a "burp" after shutdown. She splattered a nice oil puddle in an IMPARK parking lot at work. Good girl. That's pretty much what I think of IMPARK. Clutch started slipping, so that was that...

Looks like an excellent score! Congrats! Sent from my SM-G991W using Tapatalk

Yes. I attached the good ol' Roscommon Equipment Center instructions

I seem to remember that this vent line was to be disconnected at the unit level because of issues. My truck had a mushroom axle breather installed on the cap of the master cylinder. Just disconnect that vent line, put the hose barb on the cap. Your remote reservoir lid is vented, so you are...

@HDN is absolutely correct. My tranny is out and I am waiting for hardware to put the flywheel and clutch back together.....always something! But that way, the PTO gets a new seal and boot!

Yes, 11.9 static is very low. This already low voltage will drop further rapidly into the 10V range when the starter tries to suck massive current. Now...why are the batteries low when the truck was running fine (and was probably driven the day before)? Alternator is charging? One needs to peek...

Check battery terminal connections to ensure they are tight, check battery voltage (each battery should be at 12.5 or thereabouts; if you measure across both, they should be well over 24V). Hook a charger to the batteries. They could simply be low. Yes, it could be a bad starter or starter...

Of course, that already invites suggestions for some modifications! - axle breathers: you can replace them with a hose barb and run a hose up to the frame or above, with a cheap in line gas filter at the end, to prevent water entry. No more issues with sticky axle breathers. Leave enough slack...

Also fuel fired flame cold start heater....

Yes, I agree with that. Eliminating yet another potential hole in in your one-circuit brake system is a good plan. FWIW, you can use any aftermarket air pressure brake switch; the plumbing is simple and the electric connection from the hydraulic switch gets re-used. You will see that the...

Yes, it is in the TM. I know there is a table in the engine rebuild TM. Sent from my SM-G991W using Tapatalk

I got bitten by the "but I just replaced these" a couple of times. Who knows...several fillups and hours of vibration might have shaken some crud loose you didn't even know you had in there. I strongly agree with re-visiting the basic culprits before tearing into the complex stuff! Sent from...

Here are three threads that should give you more ideas: -the air pack can blow air through the vent line and cause what you describe; a leaking cup/seal or incorrectly assembled air pack can cause this - there is a link to other parts of the brake system, i.e. non-functional trailer glad hands...

Try the pedal without having air pressure. Does it still spray? Unhook the vent line, get air pressure and try again? Does it spray now? Pull the boot back at the front of the master cylinder. Does fluid come out?

FWIW, I had to have mine appraised for insurance purposes a few weeks ago. A good excuse for a road trip to the appraiser's office a couple hours away. You can read about mine in the signature. It has no rust and decent paint, is a w/w/ with drop sides and 11.00R20 on Canadian combat rims...

The position of the cab heater is awkward and impedes access to the side of the engine. The different mounting arrangements IMHO are reflections of attempts to make it a little less bad. The system is closed, with a little copper/brass heat exchanger (mini radiator) in the box and it does not...

Not meaning to detract from your very clear question - as someone who works with winches regularly, I suggest that for use on a trailer, any of the commercial solutions (which you can easily get up to the 17,500 or even 19,000 lbs rating) is a better choice than a mechanical truck winch off a...

I'm the Canadian guy that stopped by your place...before COVID....and your pipe tobacco smell reminds me of my late dad. Glad you are back! Sent from my SM-G991W using Tapatalk

I cut one out of a tire inner tube. Works fine.
