I know guys that were overweight and the DOT made them wait for another truck to come so they could offload enough to get legal.
It isn't that simple. There are way too many variables with hauling livestock and things dont' always go smoothly.
I had a ticking sound on my old truck with an N14 that ended up being a flat spot on a cam lobe. My truck didn't run rough though, it just ticked.
My 9900 did the same thing. I replaced the solenoid on the firewall, batteries, cables, starter, and the key switch. None of this helped so I just...
All the trucks and trailers where I work have Crossfires installed on the duals. I can't speak for everyone but my truck & trailer and the truck...
It ran too low RPMs at 55-60 for my liking when loaded.
It's allows you to go fast and use less fuel. I think at slower speeds the Double over might actually hurt you because the engine is running too low.
the truck in my Avatar had a 13 double over and for me it was a waste. I didn't use top gear unless I was running over 65.
Did you just buy the truck? I'm only asking because if you did maybe the previous owner bypassed the DEF system and just didn't tell anyone.
I would idle mine at 800-900 rpm minimum and if it was really cold I'd go to 1000 rpm to help keep the engine warmer.
The place I work at has 6spd Allisons in the newer dumps and they have been working great. Some of them are paired up with pups so they do haul...
I know a couple of people that have used a bar of soap and it worked for them. The one guy ran the truck with the soap "fix" for a couple of...
I talked to dad and I guess a wrist pin broke. Supposedly Detroit is going to pay for part of the O/H. I'm glad I got out of trucking so I don't...
My dad's 2012 FL with the DD13 has been nothing but trouble(mostly emissions related stuff) and now with only 525k on it it's in the shop for a...
Probably has either a 12.7 Detroit or a 6NZ C15. Like posted above you'll should have a lot less issues with the glider, as long as it was...
Noticed the AC compressor on my Sterling work truck runs when the dash selector is in the vent/floor position but it does not run when in either...
I had the same problem with the high/low selector and the air switch just needed to be rebuilt. I guess they can get gummed up from oil in the system.
How about swapping the whole elbow over? At 1500* you'd have some major failures going on.
I live in northern Iowa
Sold my truck and found these sensors, both new in wrapper(one wrapper has been opened and there is an o-ring in it, other wrapper is unopened and...
