Is there any interest in a deep dive into Cat C12 oil systems, specifically oil flow / oil pressure? I got an MTVR about 8 months ago, and its oil pressure seemed a bit low to me, and also a bit "odd"... i work w commercial trucks everyday (mostly garbage trucks in the 30-40k GVWR size range)...

Note - i just put another one over there, its only a couple pages, but very useful. Shows engine diagram w sensors / electrical devices pointed out, along w the wiring for each... including wiring colors, including hot v common, and what connector they use. This is for C12s / MTVRs (also C10s...

This is a simple (only a couple pages) document, but a very useful one, it shows an engine diagram w sensors, delectrical devices pointed out, and the associated wiring that goes along w them... in color even. For example it even shows the wiring for each individual injector.... including what...

Got valve put in, seemed to work great. The side of the system that had big leak, (primary / secondary), thats gone now. Was using shop air to pressurize truck system, only was doing one of the systems (the one that had a big leak). That big leak is gone now (it was bad enough that when you...

Ok, i've uploaded at least 5. The C12 troubleshooting manual is 26mb, I'll have to think through what i want to do with that one. I dont have a dropbox account, i'm happy to get this file to someone who does have an ability to host. I might get drop box account or something similar. I'll...

Covers assembly, detail of jake brakes for Cat 12s.... some relevance to C10s... might relate to 3196's, 3176s, but thats a guess I know my MTVR has 312A jakes on it

Fact maintenance intervals for Cat C12, somewhat applies to C10s as well (and more distantly to 3196, 3176)

Cat factory manual covering C12 engines (fit MTVR). Is kind of hard to explain, is set up kind of like a big picture overview of whats new / changed with these engines for technical people. Also feels like a detailed sales presentation. Take a look and you'll see what i mean. Some...

Uploading currently. Think i've got the biggest ones uploaded, all downhill from there, i think :)

Cat factory manual covering detailed specs of C12 engines (fit MTVR) Some applicability to C10s, tho dont know if they are ever used for .mil stuff. Successor engine to the 3196, and thereby 3176 as well (3196 was upgraded to be C12, 3176 into C10.... C12/10 share a lot of heritage, hence...

The biggest one (I think) is 14.8 mb according to windows explorer I'll try sending them through the link provided. Mainly just wanted to know where to put them (or try to anyways). If needed, i might do dropbox, will have to think about that. Steelsoldiers has been very good to me, I'd like...

Hi everybody Ive got several Cat C12 factory service manuals in .pdf format id like to share. Ive recently done a lot of work on my C12 (in 03 AMK25), and this stuff was invaluable for that. I did some maintenance (like running overhead, adjusting valves / injectors / jakes). I also did some...

Went ahead and splurged a bit, bought brand new haldex/midland valve from napa. Have in hand now, prob be tomorrow before i get it on. Had to drive a ways to get it, but happy to have. Wanna get my air brake leaks taken care of, and the dash valve had huge leak that overwhelmed everything...

Can someone tell me what valve to buy to replace my dash brake valve? (Controls parking, trailer brakes). Mines got serious leak. I may try to clean it a bit, just to see what the effect is, but im not going to risk having that valve go bad again, i want new one When it comes to air brakes, i...

This is veryinteresting. Going to look into these. Ill admit, im a big fan of HIDs...i really prefer those to LEDS. But, thats when u have housing made for hids... not just putting HID bulb in housing meant for halogen bulb. That just makes the visual equivalent of a flamethrower. Throws so...
