MBE 900 how many miles before valve lash needs to be checked?

[bc2go]

I have a Freightliner with the MBE 900 engine in it. It has 77,380 miles on it. Was the vale lash adjustment suppose to be made at 75k? Thanks

We had that engine in our first truck. It had 961,000 miles on it when we traded it in.

Not sure when you should have the first adjustment done, but I have always tried to do the first one at 100,000, the second one at 500,000 and then every 500,000 after that.

I would recommend contacting a Detroit Diesel shop and asking them what the recommended intervals are just to be sure.

Thanks - I will call DD but knowing the miles you got on yours is helpful. Thanks again!
