    Blown head gasket?

    there is no air in system only antifreeze so I don't see how soapy water would find anything? the bloc chek only requires 2 or 3 pumps to show what it finds, very quick. it will find a gasket leak that you don't even know about. sounds like you have nothing wrong.

    Blown head gasket?

    block-chek is the only thing that will tell you positively head gasket combustion leak. I know I said that already but it is like magic. Now your problem could be many things including the tester leaking down. The pressure or coolant is going somewhere, my money is on the tester leaking. Did...

    Blown head gasket?

    Buy a bloc-check kit. Cheap and you will use it again somewhere. It has blue fluid that turns yellow with gasses of combustion. It is fool proof and will detect an extremely small leak, one that you would not even know about. Used it for 40 years or more.

    Crimper model numbers

    go to that auction site and search for 'crimper SN-48B' This is the basic crimper that will do uninsulated terminals. If you go to ali express there are hundreds more. I have 5 or 6 of these as well as automated machines that strip and crimp from reels of terminals, a real time saver.

    LMTV Air Conditioner AC Main Unit Gen1 and Gen2 Details

The 4 pin plug is 12 volt illumination and 24 volt for the blower and 2 ground wires. I need to know where in...

    LMTV Air Conditioner AC Main Unit Gen1 and Gen2 Details

    on a 06 A1R, where is the 24 v supply that the 2 wire plug goes to? that is the orange and black wires. I have the evaporator coil from a MRAP which is rated 33,070 BTU, the gen 2 is just a little larger so I would assume at least that rating. Thanks, Tom

    Gen2 a/c wiring

    I have a 06 A1R and wonder if at least the power supply connector is in the harness of the truck for the A/C unit. The blower and lights connector is the same one as just the heater uses, but it also needs 24 volt from the PDP. I have the schematic for the unit but since it is an A1R nothing...

    Has anyone done an in-frame 3116 rebuild?

    OK, well you have to be old to know this, but if this is a low hour engine and you are only concerned with re seating the rings, take the intake off, disable the fan, get a box of BonAmi and with the intake disconnected dust it into the engine at an idle. This WILL work for compression and oil...

    blow by is always the top ring. you need to do a leak down test to see what you have wrong before taking it apart.

    M1078 Starter Replacement

    New cat starter for 3116 is about $200 with no core since it is new. But it is considerably smaller and probably not water proof.

    CAT 3116 A/C pully not really needed? LMTV FMTV

    Because he didn't have a clue about hydraulics. A proper priority valve with a pressure relief would have been fine. But I agree a belt is best.
