Now that I really think about it that makes perfect sense. The exhaust pressure governor is there to keep the engine/exhaust temp higher at idle...
That would be great if it was just the belt but it sounds more severe unfortunately. I should mention that if I just press the accelerator...
2007 Volvo 780 D12 engine. This is a weird one. On cold starts I hear a squealing noise coming from the passenger side of the engine. It doesn't...
http://andrustrans.com Seemed like an ok outfit to me. When I still lived in Vegas I was considering them. They only run the west, but you need...
"decent OTR companies"? No such thing...you'd have better luck looking for Jimmy Hoffa. But based on where you live, you might want to check out...
I'm driving an 07 right now. It has a D12, not a D13.[ATTACH]
