    I have a 2005 international 9400i with CAT C13 acert with Eaton Fuller trans. Sometimes during acceleration I hear a sputtering air noise, it happens right after the air compressor reaches 125 Psi and the air dryer purges. I thought it was the air dryer so I replaced it , but it is still doing it . Does anyone know what this could be?

    I am a technician student working on a project to put togeter a long haul truck that is going to be the most efficient, reliable, driver comfortable etc. This truck is supposed to make a trip from B.C to Ontario hauling produce then back to B.C with frozen meat. I was orginally thinking of the fuller 18 speed but is that overkill? Is an automatic transmission even an option?
