    Big Truck PLEASE HELP!! I HAVE 2008 HINO W/DPF PROBLEMS.

    Does the fan clutch come on? You'll hear it cycle on and off as you're driving. Does the coolant level stay put, or are you having to add coolant? The radiator fins can get clogged, and it won't be noticeable at all until you get some stuff out of the way. You can try removing the...

    Best lower cost 26 foot box truck

    While I'm not a huge fan of that Ford chassis, the engine is pretty good. It'll need new injectors occasionally and the lift pumps like to burn up. They're also slugs.

    All of the classic DT466's are 10 years old at this point.

    Best lower cost 26 foot box truck

    I have a bunch of friends that deliver appliances. By far, the most popular trucks are international 4300's, with DT466 engines and Allison transmissions. There the most popular because they're common and relatively cheap. The tuck-under liftgate is the most popular, because you can run that...

    DEF Parts Diagram

    There is no printout. Everything is in electronic format. The dealership in your area accesses this information online. I suppose they could print you off pictures of the diagrams, but the diagrams do not have names or part numbers on them. Clicking the picture opens a link with part...

    Mechanical Something weird happen

    It sounds like a relief valve popped off. These are installed in case there's a governor problem and the air pressure pumps up dangerously high. 120 psi is within the realm of normal, so it's probably not the governor. Sent from my XT1585 using EO Forums mobile app

    Mechanical The best fluid for the Allison transmission

    Well, we get it through the Hino parts distribution center (I think). I've gotten Mobil 1 synthetic ATF that meets this spec from Napa before. Gotta call around. Sent from my XT1585 using EO Forums mobile app

    Mechanical The best fluid for the Allison transmission

    The fluid should meet Allison TES-295 specifications. My shop uses bp Autran Syn 295. Be aware that there are deep and shallow transmission pans (you most likely have a deep pan, but who knows) and there are two different internal filters out there. A short filter in a deep pan will fall...

    Help any idea? MBE 900 oil pressure

    It's sort of suspicious that they resealed the oil cooler and now there's an oil pressure problem. Or it could be totally legit. It'd be nice if they took pictures. I always take pics of sketchy stuff, if for no other reason than covering my ass. Sent from my XT1585 using EO Forums mobile app

    Ud 1800

    I guess the TCM didn't come with the transmission? If you want 6th gear, you'll need to visit an Allison dealer. Expect them to be very weird about this, and for it to be fairly expensive.
