    6BG1t isuzu

    Never done a swap out like that, but I got one in a Link Belt 290 hoe with a little over 12,000 very hard hours and no problems at all. A very strong engine in my opinion. A very strong engine and with a few different HP options through the computer.

    2840 John Deer

    On this style pump how would I do this? Also I was told by someone that this is or was one the engines John Deer had troubled with. Is that true? It is not worked every day, it is a weekend worker, so I’m not like planning on cranking the fuel all that much. We just want to get a little more...

    2840 John Deer

    I got a friend of mine that has a 2840 John Deer and he was asking me if there is any way to get a little more HP out of it. I believe it is a 1977. I told him we probably could tweak the pump by turning the screws on it. Is this true in this case? He has also told me he see a little blue smoke...

    Another roll over.

    Yep that's right another roll over. Same driver nine months later on his side again. Driver said the load froze in the noise. But he later told me and some other drivers he it jammed up and he tried to rock the truck. I did not see the truck on its side but I did get these pictures after it was...

    Seen the underside of a T800 lately?

    Sad part about our latest roll over is it was the same guy. 2nd time in 9 months. I promise I will get the pics up this weekend.

    Man I hate that when that happens. I just had to deal with that last week. Had a driver flip a truck? Truck and trailer went over. I got some pics but haven't had the time to post them. I will try and get them up soon.

    Roehl trucking

    I use to deal with them on a regular basis for about a year while the company I am with was changing hands. I use to unload 2 to 3 of there trucks a week. All the drivers I ever talked to liked the company and have been there for 10 or so years. Always had great equipment, trucks and trailers...

    Fuel additive question?

    Iv started to add a little every time I fill up. I usually get about 14 to gallons, and in to that I add 8 oz of the 2 stroke oil and 4 oz of power service. So far so good, It seem to be a little more response and I picked up a 1 mpg just playen around in the city.

    Need more horse power for my Mack.

    I called 2 Mack dealers today and they said they have not heard of any such program for the 460. But one dealer told me that in mid 2006 that Mack was going to release some new engines, HP rating from 480 to around 550.

    Need more horse power for my Mack.

    I got a 2003 Mack Vision w/ a 460 Mack engine and a 13 speed. I want to get a little more horse power out of it. I don't know if the Mack computers can be reprogramed or not like the Cat's and the Cummins computers and engines. What can you do with a Mack to get a few more puppies out of it...
