Hey guys I'm out in the field and need to add hydraulic fluid to my 1984 m936 medium duty Wrecker. I've looked at the lubricating order and it seems to want me to use a hundred gallons of engine oil (OE/HDO). Does anyone have a civilian counterpart or hydraulic type that will work well in this...
Update: Yes it was the timing. It took them three tries to get it right, but now all is well. The truck runs fine and it is normal. Standby for hurricane Delta.
I bought a new front bumper and right fender for my damaged ones. it'll fit on most any trailer or in a pickup bed. Anyone headed west they could pick it up and drop off? Time isn't terribly critical.
Replaced the Engine Governor Module in accordance with GuyFang's instructions. I still have a few connections to make for some of the other components, but the motor turning on its own power was enough of a win for me today!!
Got the generator up and running today!!! Started right up, runs smooth. Need to finish up a couple of wiring connections and get the distribution box connected up, but overall it sounds great!! Thanks guys!
Okay, so I followed SImp's advice. The header temps are as follows:
Cylinder 1: 370-390 degrees
C2: 370-390
C3: 370-390
C4: 180
C5: 370-390
C6: 240
So maybe I have two bad cylinders? Or do you think it is timing?
Mine is missing. It looks like someone tried to bolt another component in the same space before the govplanet auction to hide the fact that box was missing (not like I would have known anyways). I bought it not running on the cheap. Now I'm going through part by part, and noticed this...
As many of you know, I had a sleeve slip on my 1984 M936 Wrecker with a NHC 250. Honestly the motor ran perfectly until then. I paid a guy to do an in-frame to replace that sleeve. He had it purring like a kitten. It again ran perfectly. Then I drove it ten miles and slipped two more...
I'm looking for the Engine Governor Control Module for my 2010 Fermont 804-B with the Yanmar Turbo Diesel, NSN: 2910-01-371-4356. It is also known as a Woodward Controls, part no 8270-1003. I can't find it anywhere, and my generator is useless without it. Anyone have a lead on a cross-fit...
The motor is actually stamped with "12v" on it, but it is the light/motor that came on the truck from the military. It turns pretty fast, but doesn't seem to get hot or burn.
I've confirmed with my multimeter that I am getting 24.3 volts to the light.
I have a Deitz 7-40 rotating warning beacon on my M936 wrecker. First, I had to rewire almost the whole bed. Now I have the work lights working with LED's installed in each, and I have 24 volts to the warning light plug. Both light systems even turn on and off with the dash switches! So, me...
