Yep, Speedco does oil analysis but be sure the sample they use is from your truck. Had one done and they gave me a print out for someone elses truck. They said it was just becauce they put the wrong truck info in the computor when they did the printout. So I asked how did they know for sure this...

Thanks for you guy's replies. In all the replacements I've had done no one has been able to give me a reason why for all the failures. Yes, after the previous repair to the one I just had done they did put the check valve on so juries still out on that "fix" since I still had a...

Havent seen anyone talk about this persistant problem. I am on replacement number five in five years owning my Freightliner M2-106. Just replaced both after having it done 8 months ago. I know there are a lot of you folks out there who have experienced the joys of buying and adding coolent to...

Hey guys, got email from EO about new A/C from Espar. Apparently battery operated. Checked their website and it does not show this new product. Have'nt called them yet. I have seen other battery powered units in internet sites. Anyone have any experience with this type of unit.

Still wondering if anyone has had to do a Mercedes MB900 engine rebuild. I posted this earlier but had no replies so I guess no one has had to.

Thanks guys for your input. Mounting,wiring,fuel tank,gen set (diesel or gas) a lot to consider. Getting it done's the hard part but with all the idling laws popping up, it seems like a neccesity. Thanks again.

x06col: Gee sorry for being so stupid, guess your a genius huh!!

To "always confused": Thanks for your reply. Where did you mount the generator and gas tank? Just wondering about the safety of having a gasoline tank on the truck.

Just wondering if anyone has done an overhaul on MBE900 Engine and what it cost.

Is there anyone out there installed who has had a roof top air conditioner and diesel gen set installed on their straight truck? Need help/advise to do this. Seems this would be cheaper and more efficient that the expensive APU's out there. Thanks

Thanks again everyone. Decided to pay the standard $400 to remove to save aggrivation but now having second thoughts. Air freshener?? Well, maybe it worth a try.

Thanks everyone so far for your imput. I have removed lettering with a blow dryer and a heat gun with relative ease (though somewhat time consuming)but have not tried the big logos. I did some internet searching and came up with a product that they claim at least, removes large graffix. You wipe...

I'm sure this has been asked before, but does anyone have any magical method to remove company logos, markings etc. from the box and sleeper on a straight truck? Any help will be appreciated.

Sorry if I caused an uproar. It's just with the state of the business right now I thought it was cause for concern. Sitting here at home first team on Nashville board since yesterday and two trucks, one team and a single have gone out that were below us on the board. Ummmmm!!?

Just saw an advertisement for Panther team drivers on EO. This is not for O/O's but obviously for drivers because it posts rates for drivers,not trucks. Anyone know what's the deal here? Are they now going to own their own fleet? If so, this scares the hell out of me being a one truck team. I...
