    Allis Chalmers M100 motor grader

    What work/repairs have you had to do to your machine? Is there anything that is a continual issue with these machines? Have you found anywhere that has been of any help as far as parts? Or mainly it's taking parts off salvage machines. Do you know how many hours yours has?

    Cummins L-10 manual oil pressure test

    Thanks for including the diagram. Once I looked at it it reminded me that there is a compucheck fitting to check oil pressure on the oil filter housing so I'll probably get a compucheck fitting for my gauge and go that route. Thanks again for the response.

    Cummins L-10 manual oil pressure test

    Looking at a dump truck with a Cummins L-10 engine oil pressure gauge appears inoperable in pictures. So I'm wondering if there is a easy spot to tap into with a manual gauge to test oil pressure. Engine is electronic. Truck is not local to my area.
