Chris also don’t forget your air leak by the dipstick, also the old Mack 6 speed the old saying was you could smoke a cigarette between shifts 😅, thats the bad thing about the old 6 speed has that leg before turbo spools up for the power to come back. The second run what i could hear it sounded better, turn your idle up to 800 and get your tack cable fixed that will help as well with you watching it when shifting. When you are warming it up idle up to 1200 if you let it slobber it wont get hot enough to burn clean. Trust me i ran Mack’s all my life had 28 of them… nothing is tougher than a bulldog!!!

By the looks of exhaust manifold looks more like coming from cylinders of unburnt fuel or leaking past the rings now that you have a new cylinder head on 1 thru 3, I don't think turbo to blame seeing as last season truck was smoke free except normal acceleration smoke. I wonder if you have a timing issue as last year it was easy cold starting now you have hard starting problems. I,m placing my bet on fuel timing problem. I think 1 thru 3 pushing oil past rings.

Mack semi trucks, never die they just live on in other trucks, that need their transplants which makes them better than before Mr. Duffy you and your team are the Mack, Semi truck doctors of New York, The worst thing is that you would have to take the whole engine completely out of the semi-truck again just like the Kenworth in the same fashion instead of particular repairs and many more gremlins to find out on the Mack semi-truck. Both semi-trucks are pretty much at the same stage to get the are talking to you and tell me it is time to work on all of my little gremlins that are making me ill and I Duffy, please fix them and I'll be good again big Red is saying I loved you threw a hard time with your family now it is time to love me know.

@peterjackson98318 ай бұрын
Are you sure the oil isn't leaking from the front cylinders? The oil appears to be coming out of the exhaust manifold and not the turbo. Probably rings in one of the front cylinders. Do not consider the turbos interchangeable either especially if the exhaust turbine and compressor housings are different. They are usaully VERY specific to each engine application and matched to fuel systems and settings etc. Make sure you check with the dealer to see if they interchange as you could be setting yourself up for a whole new set of heartaches.
@DuffyAg8 ай бұрын
E6 engine and e7 are usually 100% interchangeable. If I call a mack dealership on a e6 mack it's like talking to the experts on youtube they actually have no idea. And I guess you will have to see if after switching turbo that was feeding oil into the engine it runs properly. Wait actually we showed that at the end of the video that it was running properly

Hi Chris before I start no I am not self thought mechanic I fully qualified motor mechanic I worked on cars, truck's, and earth moving equipment For many years rebuild so many cars trucks repaired so much earth moving equipment. Now your truck gas an air leak on engine or we call it vacum. Your tako meter is fluctuating and when it stop still for few seconds I notice it's idling high. U would check your vacum with vacum gauge and then try to find leak .Or get that tacometer fixed or replaced get that engine tune in proply it's idling to high and your disel income it's to high that's way it smoking black smoke . Light smoke is oil burning that is n o t a good sign it could be several things gone wrong. You don't take care of your trucks what I seen so far only when they stop. And you just repair to get it back on road , with your work truck must be 100% at all time band aid fix is not the way to go I know it cost but that's your fault for letting it go that far. I had my own trucks on road so I know what is like but if you service them on time re p air when you pick up problem early cost less. So don't tell me or you haven't farmed no I haven't farmed but I did all sorts of truck driving more than you have in your life time you still need to work 30 years before you catch up with me. Guys like you with big chip on there shoulders we call would bee's so don't tell prop l e they don't know if you don't know them I don't know way I watch your chanel but more I watch it n o w more it upsets me just the way you do things the way you carry on .
