Here ya go comparing apples to oranges. and just WHAT WAS THE CPL setting on the 855 , probably like 315 or maybe a castrated 325 . and NEVER had been put in service , and next your going to say what are you talking about . Well you had the 90 NOTHING twisten 348 ponys so someone had there fingers in it . and the fact that you had it buzzen more RPM's then the six . Let me get my grubby fingers under the valve cover of the 855 and pop the ball out of the pump and change just ONE spring in that pump then tell me how the 90 nothing pulls . Been down this road many times back in the day , we had 318 double breasted Yamaha's out pulling them . . NO cummins has ever left the factory set to full spec.s and ALL need PUT IN SERVICE . EVEN the DODGE pick ups need done and hardly any have had this done . They liked you to do this after 15000 miles on a big truck and before around 500 hours . The difference after being PUT IN SERVICE is day and NIGHT . When i got my Dodge 3500 it had 62 thousand on it and had NEVER had this done as i took it up to a friend that was service manager at the Cummins store and he ran the S/N . and when i aske Bobby when he wanted to do it he looked at me and said why you know Cummins ya just need a few items . Well since the 5.9 and 8.3 are used in Ag i bought the Cummins service tool kit and took and afternoon and did mine and it was a Day and night difference and three more MPG . Just like on the 855's after i run the overheads . The only thing about the 90 Nothings was they sounded COOL and were Like a City girl they taklked big intown but ya get them out in the country and they did not do much.

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
