I had a vibration issue at speeds over 40mph that would clear up when I switched the front axle on (18,000 miles on odo). Due to this, I immediately started looking at the front driveshaft, and suspected something in the U-joints or splined slip joint. I could move the spline joint some when...
Cummins part number 3911446, Screw, Banjo Connector, M12 x 1.5 x 24. I looked this up for my M925A2/Cummins 8.3L via my engine serial number on Cummins free Quickserve website. Yours will be the same. Looks like $20 or so. There shows to be a small plug in the end of it, maybe for a pressure...
I think as long as you read the instructions carefully, and then loosen the clamp while containing the can in the jaws of a large vice for extra safety measure, it would be fine. They say they contain enough spring pressure to physically kill you. I think as others have said, NAPA sells the...
The stock alternators are junk. The pulley may he spinning free on the shaft, or the front bearing is bad and gets loud when loaded by belt tension. Your replacement choices are in the price range of $89 and up. You can get a Chinese unit with a one year warranty and near stock output for the...
On the cheap and dual function, you can use a medium tow bar as an A frame crane. Tie it back somehow along each side of the cab toward the front bumper or something even stronger. Then use an elecfric winch mounted just hehind the rear of your cab, and you should be styling. I made extension...
Sometimes to do this on a V belt setup, it is easiest to drive the second alternator from the first one, meaning, you basically have a machine shop weld a 3rd pulley groove onto your existing alternator pulley, and then drive your newly added 12v alternator from the 3rd groove of the original...
I'd check the fuel tank dip tube and its junction to the tank fitting. An issue there would not show up on your air pressure test. If ok, try to run the engine on a hose from a remote fuel supply to determine if the issue is vehicle side or engine side.
Sounds like it. Is that the reason they went with the flat bottom on them, to reduce the quantity of oil needed to tumble down the axle tube? I would guess as long as the ring gear is picking it up, it would get slung everywhere and travel down the axle shaft and tube, eventually reaching the...
I'm building up one of my PortaCharger gasoline powered high current DC battery chargers in OD and black to bring to the show. It will have a slave cable connector on the end of its detachable 20' cable. It uses a Honda GX commercial OHV engine and a self regulating 24v alternator which can...
All that, and post #2 wasn't too far off, diagnosed from states away! I don't blame you for trying though. If I lived closer I'd have no problem signing up to help.
