Hello there
I am pretty new concerning cummins and parts...
Im going to buy a Bluebird FE 3600. Its a 1998 5.9 cummins 12v with a MT643 Allison Transmission.
I would be glad if somebody could give me some informations concerning the engine and the trans.
All I found in here was about the engine build in a Dodge. Can somebody give me some hints how it is going to be maintained, whats really necessary todo, maybe some motor specifications concerning proper oil etc. (btw. I am living in Spain, so if somebody knows a good oil that can also be bought in Europe...)
I would be also thankful if somebody could tell me about the trans. How reliable is it ??
At the moment its rotten up. (First and fourth drive doesnt shift)
What can I further do to give them some performance??

well thanks for that hint guess its the first thing Im going to do! Just dont understand how it can be manufactured this way
concerning the oil: shipping would double the price I guess... What kind of oil is normally used? synthetic 15W40 or mineral?
