I added some pics to the original post. The blue things you see attached to the air lines are the ride controls, you put one of those inline on each sleeper airbag, and there is something similar for the rear airbags, except in the rear they screw directly into the airbag. Anyway it hard to...

The truck had air ride in the back already and three small airbags on the sleeper. Dovel sells little brass valves that you put on each of the existing airbags. From what I can tell theses air control slow the rate at which air moves in and out of the bag, stabilising the ride. For the...

DE-0061/EV-0061 I think this is the model we have.

I have a norcold in my sleeper, it has a real freezer, I can fit 17 lean quizine dinners and a box of jimmy dean sausage and egg biscuits. It was built into the sleeper by AA. It has been very reliable and we are very happy with it. I couldn't tell you the model number though.

Refrigerant Support Fluids - Enviro-Safe Products these guys sell ac stuff you dont need a license to use. I kept having multiple issues with my carrier ac, compressors burning out, leaks etc. I switched to their es-22 refrigerant, put in a can of stop leak and 1 shot of oil, I have...

Multiple burnt out compressors. Tells me NO OIL in system. This is highly likely as Ive never seen a tech actually put compressor oil in. They always assume it is sitting in the condenser. It is probably NOT which is why you keep burning up compressors. you probably need to add about 3...

The more I think about it, I started having these over temp issues when the new fuel was everywhere. Its probably just that. LOL at least I have a new water pump (EVen though I didn't need it)

Ur right it may be the new fuel. I just drained and replaced my coolant with EVANS NPG+, according to my ecu the highest engine temp has been 225, which i think is bullcrap, because i have boiled over a few times. anyway, the EVans coolant should solve the boilover problem as it has no...

I have a hino 338, which rides like a hay wagon, not anymore though. The donvel kit is fairly easy to install but you do have to drill your truck frame which is no pick-nic. other than that it was pretty straight forward. If you're in texas donvel will install them for you. I did my...

I recently installed the Donvel air bags and air controllers on my truck. The whole kit came to around 1k. I did the installation myself, it took about 10 hours, mainly because I had issues getting some old seized fittings loose. After about a week of using them I can say I wish I had heard...

Well, I have replaced the water pump, the thermostat, and have a radiator with less than 30k on it. And I'm still running hot and boiling out on hills. This is very unusual, used to be the truck was totally cold blooded. I could pull the grapevine in summer with a full load without...

come on over to fecc I turn down 3 or four loads a day!!!! Were so busy I'm going KRAZY!!! Of course you will have to run those loads for less than a buck a mile!!!!! (No its not busy here)

check alternator voltage. if it is really bad then its a coinincidence, buy if you ecu is shorted displaying wrong error codes, then they prolly drilled into some wires or overloade it somehow. It is highly unlikely, they could have damged the actual alternator, but they could have jacked...

look at the engine control unit behind the engine, it has a bunch of lights on it. corresponding to different faults, none of the bottom four should be lit if things are OK This sounds like 3 things maybe - Clogged fuel filter, broken throttle selonoid(this is right on the front, it pulls...

cac is new and condenser is not. The hino has a huge gap between the cac and radiator, so the would be tons of airflow even if cac and condenser were clugged with bugs. I have not replaced the thermostat, I did pull it out to look at it though, lol it looked fine Unfortunately I dint have...

::Marvel Mystery Oil:: there you go

marvel mystery oil in the crankcase is mainly a flush instead of a oil additive, you pour it in run the engine a while and then drain. I think it is genrally meant as a fuel additive, which is what i have mainly used it for in the past. LOL I stand corrected they say you can run it in the...

I test my oil, I have a gulf coast by pass filter, and I send the samples to titan labs, and they send the results to gulf coast, who forwards them to me along with any comments. they knew I had the head off without being told because of the oil sample. I also use the AMESOIL sampling amesoil...

My engine has been running heating up quicker than normal as of late. Normally my HINO has ice in it's veins, but around 380k I started having to drop gears in the hills to keep the heat off the engine. I'm fairly sure its not the fan clutch, as the last time it heated up, I did the rolled...

Thats too bad I was hoping they would tank and put thier Obama voting employees out on the street. Is that harsh?
