    September 19, 2021 at 8:15 pm in reply to: Ugly fix revisited

    We left Freightliner NW on Thursday 5K poorer and with 6 new injectors. No improvement in smoke. After 400 miles we’re back in FL NW parking lot to be first in Monday morning. During the trip I removed the ugly fix and smoke immediately lessened. Still some but not nearly as bad. Several months ago we had a 147 code (VNT blades not responding). FL NW reminded me of this since it was the only code active or inactive. The tech who originally read the code opined it could be a failing EGR valve. FL NW disagreed. Ugly fix remains uninstalled for now but power loss and lower oil pressure were immediately apparent with removal. Will negotiate for new EGR valve without labor. Will advise. Comments welcome.

    Hmmm…never considered that it was a drain from another source, but that would make sense. In that case, I suppose that I can just plug it?

    May 19, 2021 at 9:54 pm in reply to: OTR idler bearing

    Decided to change 2 more the idler pulley bearings. One in the 5″ double groove pulley for the OTR ac compressor. The other is for the clutch fan. The Prevost pt# is 507014 – $18 ea. Dimension is 20mm x 52mm x 22.2mm. Another pt# is 5304 2RS, available online from many retailer. JAF brand pt# w-304-2Rs, like I used before, will also work.

    Your results may vary.

    Guys, it is a mess at the bridge! I need to go over the old bridge early next week to pick up my car being serviced in West Memphis, AR.

    The ‘new’ bridge was fine when I went over it 2 weeks ago! 🙂

    The old bridge has two lanes on each side whereas the new bridge has 3 on each side….. it certainly is a bottleneck!

    Safe travels!

    Well hell, that SEA site sure would have been good for me don’t want to go to the Bay Area. Maybe Jeff at Coburg can get a handle on it, start there anyway.

    Thanks for checking Bernie
