New to the forum....

I just wanted to say hello.
I run a field service truck the the Peterbilt store in Dallas, so if yall have any questions lat me know.

I can also look up vin numbers to check for recalls, truck history, and then some, so just let me know if I can help yall out

 

I don't know how much info I can get you on a truck that old, but I'll give it a shot. shoot me your last 6...

I'll run it through Paccar but most of the stuff on a truck that old has been transfered to paper, with me being in the field I olny have acess to internet, but like I said, I'll give it a go and see what happens....

 

About the only experiance I have with big cams is driving them, I have very little experiance on the mechanical side.

That tach is cable driven, runs out to the fuel pump area, just can't remember exactly where at at the moment.

That hole in the bell housing sounds like the inspection area so you can get to your clutch for adjustment and lube the throwout bearing and such.

If you can shoot me your last six, I can TRY and see what engine the truck orgianally had...

 

I saw your vin after I posted my last post...
I ran it through eportal, but it has been transfered to a microfiche file already, file #12019 if you want to keep that handy for the future...

I called in a favor to a guy at the shop who is going to look that info up on the microfiche, I'll post it as soon as I hear from him....

It'll will probably be a lot eaiser to run a mechanical tach in your case based off of what your telling me, but like I said, I'm not real experianced with the older trucks...

 

orginal engine.....
