    Truck shut of due to no coolant.

    It’s questionable. Building from empty tanks, it can take a while as there’s lots of storage volume. Never timed it, but an easy 3 minutes or more at base idle. Pistons and liners are not my primary concern, the head is. The c12 head is a big weak point in regards to heat, they won’t tolerate...

    MK23 transfer case oil?

    To reclarify, the t case takes HDO40, which in layman’s terms is heavy duty oil otherwise known as diesel oil. Micah Adams put a video out on YouTube, use 15-40 diesel oil Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    It’s quite the giggle cruising up the grades with my crazy tune at 65k gross at 60mph. These trucks would be so much more capable without being gear bound Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    It’s my truck really, airing down properly to not beat me or the truck to death, and my rig weighing in at 32,000 it’s rough on tires with the rocks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    923A2 ticking

    Buy yourself a 12v Cummins barring tool, Pull the valve cover on the engine cold, and run the valve lash. Chances are it’s terribly out of adjustment and never been done Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Dirty fuel system

    I have a distinct disliking of the “average know it all” whom dumps any and all flammable liquids into a deuces fuel tank without so much as even attempting to filter it with zero concept of micron ratings on fuel filters Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Fuel

    No sir, my fuel systems are not. I’m very experienced with waste oils, centrifuging the “proper way” via preheating, settling, cutting with pump gas, and getting my fuel down to less than 1 micron contamination. Too many take the easy route of “well my engine has an oil filter so it’s good to go...

    Fuel

    My friend i gotta pick at you, you’re sharing sound advise, but i have ran many a multi fuel on 90% waste oil and 10% pump gas in our hot Georgia summers. But it’s not recommended Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    M939A2 Shifting issues

    Out-#%€£ing-standing, glad to hear and it’ll be running like a raped ape for many more years now. If you want a little more go-juice, consider turning the main fuel up and low-boost fueling up a smidge too Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Elijah95s wrecker project

    Sometimes green iron disease will make you sick, but with all the trauma I’ve been through over the past year honestly these raggedy rigs are my escape. So todays project: Truck has always been hard to start, surging idle, random light sputtering, wild rev-hunting when using the crane throttle...

    Elijah95s wrecker project

    The other day i needed the truck for a small project, checked the fluids under the hood, and hopped in the cab, hit the clutch and brakes only to slam straight to the floor. The rear-rear axle wheel cylinders gave out. Ordered (6) new wheel cylinders, inner-outer wheel seals, hub gaskets and...

    Helped a buddy get his 20’ shipping container moved across his property yesterday during the downpour, speaking of which can someone quit bribing the weatherman for all the rain we’ve been receiving every weekend? Keep this up and I’ll have to only work my day job on rainy-days to get caught up...

    Service manual? What are all these teal stickers on every part?

    Our tcase is something like a 1.36 underdrive case 24/7. Single speed A 1:1 t case would net you something like 77mph top speed if i remember correctly. @DeMilitarized ran the calculations at one time i believe Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Need opinion - Dirty/old coolant or oil/coolant mix?
