    Adjust FDC on the fly???

    Can your truck do this? Ok, I have only ever driven my truck, it’s an m52a2 with the 5 ton multi-fuel, it’s after cooled the injection pump is adjustable on the fly by a cable on the dash and the waist gate on the turbo has been blocked off.

    900 series fan clutch on a LDT deuce?

    The adapter is very simple to construct, the costly part is the fan, you can buy a junkyard fan with clutch for $50-$75, but then you need to replace the clutch b/c it is 15 years old, new clutch is $65. So its going to cost you about $30 for the adapter and new bolts, Project total will be...

    900 series fan clutch on a LDT deuce?

    OK, finally here on the pictures. You all made me worry that it might be out of ballance by welding, so this is how I re-did the clutch. As you can see there is no welding, I made the adapter by using a washer and a center bolt from a leafspring pack, and a 1 1/2" set coller. As for trimming...

    900 series fan clutch on a LDT deuce?

    I just installed a viscous fan clutch on my M52A2 Miltifuel yesterday, Took the stock fan off, went to a local junk yard and looked around till I found a match, the bolt pattern was right but the pilot hub was not, so I measured the hub = 1 1/2" bought a 1 1/2" set collar, welded it to the hub...

    Why 2650rpm max?

    Pulling a load I maintain 25 psi of boost. My truck has a Intercooler installed and it makes a huge difference. I never let the egts go over 1200.

    Why 2650rpm max?

    All the different ideas on here and no one has thought about the down pressure on a turbo charged engine. While reving under a load my LDS 465 1a has 10-25 psi of boost, soo the turbos drive pressure is at least 20 PSI. with this pushing down on the piston all the time either boost or drive...

    Multifuel on 50% UMO :)

    [ I've run up to 90% WMO and I've never gotten smoke like that. What am I doing wrong?:roll: on my truck I have reworked the fuel density compinsator AKA (FDC). I have an adjustment on my dash to control the max fuel on the fly. I just adjust for the load, tempature and type of fuel. All I...

    Multifuel on 50% UMO :)

    Yes the more oil the blacker the smoke, on stright #2 the smoke is a dark gray. I have run 90% umo, with no problems, @ 90% oil all you can hear of the motor is the fan, its very quite and does not have that normal knock to it. The only reasion I had only 50% is b/c I was given some free...

    OK well here is the video, the truck made me worry at first, pulling the 9K pound empty trailer it topped out at 53 mph. with the 30K excavator on it it topped out at 53 mph, go figure???? It could have pulled a lot more, the brakes worked great, and the air pressure never seamed to drop. In...
