I'm not really sure what you're talking about. Bring me up to speed.

I sense you've had a few issues with this particular truck. Edit: I found your update. Ouch. That's the thing that they do that I find inexcusable.

Sounds like the belt/belt tensioner needs some attention. The other problem is the valve cover says CAT C7 on it.

I fixed the transmission problem by replacing the injector on cylinder number three and correctly phasing the driveshaft.

Installing a liftgate in my driveway.

I've heard that these interfaces actually do work, right until something accidently updates. Then it becomes dumpster ballast. I don't know for sure. If used to reflash an ecm and it decides to flake out, things get really expensive.

I dont know of any simple scan tool that works on Hino protocol. That should work on abs and transmission though.

Texa software works with Sprinters, passenger cars, and heavy duty. Also will communicate with various ABS and transmission controllers. It's also $6000. This was probably not helpful.

One of the forums I frequent got rid of their dislike button. No one was mature enough to accept a dislike without bleating about it. Others couldn't constrain themselves and would dislike your entire post history.

The engine is back together, finally. Someone had been in the bottom end before, and some sketchy things were done. Inexplicably, one main bolt looked like it was dragged down a sidewalk until a quarter of one section of the threads were flattened. The circumference of the head's flange was...

Model and year?

If it's the pump, that should be easy enough to solve but I'd do it sooner rather than later. Did they also do a 100 pt check or something like that? Make sure they put everything back together. Like the air filter lid.

I used to work for the military doing night vision/infrared sensor testing. The only thing that would survive for any period of time inside of an M2 Bradley, M60A3, or a HMMWV was a Trip-Lite. Cheap converters had a lifespan measured in minutes. You could get 6 months out of a Trip-lite...

I don't know if the '08s came with an Aisin either, just some of the 4 cylinder trucks did. They're good, but the Allison is bulletproof. I'd drill the holes if there's low power during a regen. Same pattern and drill size as the 6 cylinder trucks. The valve is smaller on these, and the...

Hi there, After looking at this forum, one might suspect that all of these trucks are riddled with problems. Not true, we're only addressing the ones with issues. Plenty of others are running around without problems. Also, you'll notice trends on what goes wrong with them. Like any model...

If everyone who made a mistake was only given one chance, there wouldn't be a single mechanic. I for one dont like making repeat mistakes. Instead I find new and creative ways to :censoredsign: stuff up. There is another fuse box, either above batteries, behind driver's step, or just behind...

P081b Starter disable circuit high. Pretty much this code is set when something is left unplugged or if the starter cut relay has died. The first step is to charge the batteries. If you decide to jump start it, leave the jumper cables on for a while first. Like 15 minutes. They don't like...

Check the room light fuse in the outside fuse panel. Also recharge the batteries before trying to restart it. They do not like low voltage.

I was 100% wrong. Phillips head screwdriver. Access holes on underside of hood. Phillips turns gearwheel. Doing this right now in rest area for first time.
