    Clutch replacement NV5600

    Paul I transported 30ft to 40ft boats, combined weight of trailer and boat anywhere between 10k and 18k. S. Fl. to Long Island N. Y. That puts a truck through hell. Long runs on cruise, then traffic jams with 10 to 15 mph stop&go with alot of uphill starts plus the strain of backing 40ft...

    Clutch replacement NV5600

    I have been using South Bend since 1999, just replaced a ofe at 300,000mi. It looked like it could go another 40 to 50k easy. Reason for pulling was to replace release bearing and pilot bearing. The most important part is the pilot bearing. If you let it get too bad it will eat the input shaft...

    Tired of waiting for Fluidampr answer

    I have a little ting in mine too, Doesn`t bother me since I can`t hear it when I am driving and I don`t spend a lot of time standing outside listening to all the rattles that a 2nd Gen 24V will make. I am very pleased with the improvements it has made for me. I have over 30k since installation...

    If your truck came with the NV5600 when it was new, it is an HO. The only offered the HO and NV5600 as a package. The HO engine has a 17 to 1 compression, the standard is 16. 5 to 1. Good Luck

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Oil Leak

    Odds are your leak comes from timing cover and or front main seal. This should be around a 4 to 5hr job. the timing cover does not have a gasket, it is sealed with a bead of Cummins gasket sealer. The job is not real complicated and this a normal repair on 2nd gen. they pass 150000mi. Look for a...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Pulsating Trottle Peddle

    Check your vac. lines. 99 cruise is vac. controlled. If it only does this with the cruise on it is more than likely it is some were in the vac. system. The vac. servo is located under the drivers side batt. tray. Merry Christmas Capt Phil

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Pulsating Trottle Peddle

    Just replaced mine, fourth time in 675k. Rock Auto has one for 249. 00 that is plug and play. Geno`s has apps sensor only for 169. 00. That one requires calibration after install. They both will need you to set the pedal. This is very simple. Turn on ign. switch and VERY SLOWLY press the pedal...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Harmonic Balancer Question

    Yes it can. Installed mine last week, 1800mi. later towing 14000lb 5`er, I wish I had done it long ago. You won`t believe how much vibration it takes out of the 6-speed. Good Luck Capt. Phil

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) funny cruise control

    On the 01. 5 six speed with the Cummins Exhaust Brake, the position of the go pedal is picked up from the ECM, not from micro-switch under the pedal. Problem could also be a sticking relay which is in the power dist. panel under the hood. Good Luck Capt. Phil

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) funny cruise control

    2001. 5 cruise is handled by the ecm. I have a similar problem on rare occasions, could be the J-brake lying to the ecm. Just a thought. Good Luck Capt. Phil
