FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM RECONFIGURATION TO COMPLY WITH ENGINE EMISSION STANDARDS CAUSE HIGHER ENGINE VIBRATION LEVELS WHICH LEAD TO EARLY WEAR AND COMPLETE FAILURE OF THE SECONDARY THROTTLE RETURN MECHANISM.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IN THE EVENT THE PRIMARY THROTTLE RETURN FAILS, FAILURE OF THE SECONDARY THROTTLE RETURN SYSTEM WOULD NOT PROVIDE PROTECTION AGAINST LOSS OF THROTTLE CONTROL.
Remedy: A NEW PRODUCTION SECONDARY THROTTLE RETURN SYSTEM CONFIGURATION WILL BE INSTALLED.
THE DRIVESHAFT TO THE FRONT DRIVING AXLE IS SECURED TO A BRACKET USING TWO PILLOW BLOCKS. THESE BLOCKS ARE OF INSUFFICIENT STRENGTH TO SUPPORT THE DRIVESHAFT AND COULD FAIL.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: PILLOW BLOCK FAILURE ALLOWS THE DRIVELINE (JACKSHAFT)TO DROP DOWN ONTO THE ROADWAY AND CREATE A SAFETY HAZARD TO OTHER VEHICLES.
Remedy: MACK WILL INSTALL THICKER PILLOW BLOCKS AND SUPPORT U-BOLTS.
