Yes, in 24v. I am in MI, so doesn't matter what our $ trades at. Price is in recent classifieds, I think it breaks rules if I post it here. It is 20% of your stated clutch cost. Killer deal. I can swap out the pinion gear to fit your engine.
Correct. It was slipping though. Rear main was pouring like a fountain, so soaked the inside of the flywheel housing and then possibly the friction disc. Or, the pressure plate springs weakened up. Either way, free for the taking if anybody wants it. Just pay shipping, or it gets screwed to...
Understood. I didn't know this, thank you. Is this solenoid the only thing actuated by the push button in the end of the T case shift lever? I think that button is also somehow tied to the torque converter? Mine is slightly goofy, if I push the chrome button in while at an idle in neutral...
I disagree 50%, but, let's see what happens. If it blows the pistons out the bottom of the pan and the head gasket is hanging out the sides of the block, then I will come crawling back with my tail between my legs. I don't think anybody here has done it yet. That is the exciting part.
Thanks for input and agree to all. Deep study of RV boards (same root engine) shows up to 16 degrees is safe for stock sealing architecture. I'm willing to try it, and will post results when it happens.
A little more on this please. This part is not required on M939's unless it is a 936 wrecker? Then why is it installed on all other 92x's? On my 925A2, this is doing nothing, or is my reading of this incorrect (maybe)?
Nope. Spin your timing to 16 and let us know what happens. Too cold to do it here in MI right now.
Volvo charge air cooler that 4xdesign used is part number is 8181250. Used with a Detroit Diesel Series 60, but other engines also in the same chassis (WIA).
Wildchild467 has as high as a 95% leak down rate on his freshly rebuilt LDT/S hybrid engine with those pistons/rings, we just measured it last night with a new head gasket torqued into place and the rocker shafts left off. Piston tops look good, suspecting broken rings or ring lands. No valve...
Supposedly the story on the crack addict is that was before they had lubricant in it, and it would wear the cylinder/rings to the point where it would lower cranking compression enough to not light off diesel with compression ignition anymore, but only ether. Some say it is a wives tale, others...
Mine is a Horton, and generally well behaved. I have noticed that recently, on a cold start, meaning less than 40F outside, it will be engaged and spinning the fan on initial start up, with zero truck air pressure. I know that is how todays big rigs are as a fail safe, but for ours, the...
Re-ring your stock pistons, use the new liners, flush your fuel system back to pure diesel, and turn fueling/boost down to 5psi. Let it break in and run happy for a while, take leak down data once a month till mid summer. Then, start your changes, while continuing to measure leak down once a...
Not really bud. How have I seen your Issy boost needle repeatedly swing to the stop pin then on your 15psi gauge? You have tripled the boost (on an engine that was initially designed for none, but then allowed 3-7psi for exhaust clean up). If you want to keep it fueled that much, ok, then...
The cylinder kits were brand new. Not saying that means they were good. The sleeves installed fine, no excessive pressure needed and not loose. Didn't measure bore. This is now twice that broken rings have come out of the engine (if these rings are broken, but 95% leak and no visible holes...
Not looking good. We cleaned one head and block decks, and installed a new head gasket torqued to spec. Filled head intake and exhaust ports with water just prior and zero leaks. We only installed one head and took leak down data. #1 was 35%, #2 was 95%, and #3 was 15%. All air was escaping...
Does the manual indicate anything? These are different than what the manual may show though. These may have keystone type rings where they have a taper to them on the inside. You would not know until you pulled one out and looked at the end of one ring closely.
Here are the installed clutch pictures from Wildchild467, since I stuffed his tranny in from overhead while he laid on the floor underneath insulting me:
These are great points, thanks and I'll check mine also. I thought there was another thread that said if you have to air down as he is describing, it could also be incorrectly routed air lines from a depot rebuild, was common? Hats off to the east cost snow. Hope you are making good money on...
