    • I click 👍on *all* videos I watch as that is the only way I am able to show my appreciation for the entertaining and education content provided to my rapidly declining old brain. If you look at the number of Views and then the number of 👍is is a disappointing 5% to 10% of the view numbers. I don't understand why a single mouse click is so hard for those who watch the videos to provide the Content Creator a small token of their appreciation for their work. 🤷‍♂ Um @Mark_I_Am, do you like Green Eggs and Ham? 🤦‍♂ (Sorry but my primitive brain couldn't resist.) I enjoyed Mr Geisel's books 63 years ago and I got to relive that enjoyment again when I read those same books to my daughter before bed time. My only regret was that she absolutely loved _Fox in Socks_ which was a bas-turd of a tongue twister to read almost every night. Apologies for going off topic and babbling but it was some happy memories for me. I hope sir that you have a great day, week, month, year and life. 👍

  • Most of the time shims are placed under the springs to adjust spring tension. Once the valves are assembled you use a tool to test how much pressure it takes to open the valve. If the spring has a low tension you place shims under the sprigs until they are within tolerance. If too many shims are needed then the springs need replacing. I explained that to a master mechanic who was rebuilding a D8 engine after it caught fire and he told me to mind my own business, but when they started the dozer up it blew the turbo completely off the engine.

    • Great lesson for the shop and for life in general: just because somebody "less experienced" comes along and points out a mistake you made, doesn't mean you're being personally indicted as a trades or craftsperson--it just means you're human and you messed up. "Hey, good one new guy. Thanks!" would've led to a turbo *not* blowing up in this case. But hey, then we'd have been deprived a valuable workshop parable, so where's the fun in that? I bet that "master" mechanic paid a bit more attention to procedure after that... I'd hope so, anyway.

  • I worked for Georgia Power out of high school for two years with the High Tension Line Construction Division. We had an identical Autocar, except it was 4-wheel drive. It had a Hugh B. Williams hole auger mounted on the bed. That Autocar would go anywhere on the line; it was amazing. I think the truck was 1968, but it had a huge Cat engine. What was so impressive about that digger truck was everything. The hole auger was used to plant guy wire anchors and dig up to a 52-inch hole 12 feet deep. The really cool part was the Williams digger had a Ford 289 HO with headers pointing up with clapper covers with 4V carb. The ID tag listed 300HP. This was back in 1972.

  • The shims compensate for the change in valve stem height which occurs when the valves are ground and seated to their final installed height in their respective seats. The more the seat and valve are reground or machined, the more the valves stem will travel up into the guide which results in the grooves that retain the upper spring retainer and keeper to travel beyond to top face of the head. This can cause the springs to be less compressed. The shims are used to take up that dimension and if not checked then insufficient spring pressure could result one the keepers falling out in the closed position under operation. You need to keep the valves organized and matched to the where they came out as the end of the valve stems are typically faced to maintain the specific deck height to keep the rocker geometry correct after they are ground and matched to each seat.

  • You use shims to set the assembled height of the valve springs. Many things can cause that distance to change. When you get to the reassembly phase, install the valve, retainer and keepers, then measure from the spring seat to the retainer and use shims to bring them up to spec. Shims come in .015", .030" and .060". All the springs should have that spring seat (dimpled backing plate) to keep them centered. You should also measure the springs at the assembled height and make sure they have enough seat pressure. You can make a poorman's spring tester with a bathroom scale and an arbor press or even a drill press.

  • Not sure how far along you are on the project now, but I'll offer a few pieces of info I've gathered on these engines. Make sure to get your cam followers shimmed correctly for the engine setup you have (injectors, compression ratio, turbo and how you have your PT pump setup will influence this). The second is with the PT pump itself, there are different sizes of gears, 3/4", 1" and 1 1/4", picking which size depends mostly on how you drive. If you drive a Cummins like its supposed to (high rpms) the smaller pump will be fine, but if you want lower end lugging power, the larger pumps are a good option, just make sure you have a pyrometer to keep an eye on egts if you go this route. I'm not sure how familiar your buddy is with these engines in non stock configuration, but if he isn't, find someone that is that can walk you through all the ins and outs of setting one up correctly, otherwise the engine won't have a long life.

You’re doing right taking all the plugs out of the block and cleaning it really well. I would also consider replacing those piston cooling nozzles, or at least cleaning and verifying their spray pattern. I’ve never touch a Cummins before, but I’d imagine they’re just tubes with orifices in the end. If that silicone got in there, it won’t cool and/or lubricate the piston pack. That may even be why number one liner was scored.

    • Yep was thinking the same thing. I picked up a heavy duty industrial scissor lift table at auction cheap since it was old and 3 phase operation. Sometimes that stuff can be had way cheaper than the smaller single phase ones since Joe Homeowner will pass on it. Run it with a Chinesium drive with single phase 240V input and converts to 3 phase output. Works great. If a unit was 480V will also have to move some wiring on the internal controls transformer(s) and pump wiring to low voltage setting and maybe a fuse change but easy enough to do.

  • I really like your DIY working man overhauls. After investing your own muscle and sweat, hearing the thing run afterwards is very satisfying. You might consider a flash rust inhibitor solution for your new parts washer. It prevents oxidation in all those areas you can't reach.

  • And here it is ladies and gentlemen! Big Cam teardown! Right on Matt! Does your new Temco washer come with an oil skimmer? It will prolong the life of the cleaning solution and reduce bad odours.

  • It does matter where the rocker boxes go , those gaskets are shims and that helps fuel timing, and if your planning on reusing the cam then I would put them back in the same order..

  • Nice parts washer, that should help out a lot. Setting here watching and the thought occurred to me just how far you have come and how that progress is allowing you to do so much more and with more comfort and ease. The single, and I my estimation, best improvement you have made is that shop, beautiful building that is allowing you to not be bound by weather and seasons in your efforts to rescue older equipment. Looking forward to the overhead crane installation in the future, however far down the road that will be, that will be one of those” wished I could have gotten to it sooner” moments. Thanks for the update, appreciate your effort in recording these videos Mat.

  • It amazing how similar this engine is to the 30s model H.I worked on a lot of them from 40 and 50s era. Basic stuff in the same area. Worled a lot on the od Single and doubke disc injector pumps those thing could be a pain if the disc go scratched or run dry. The pt pump was a dream converted many disc pumps to pt pumps .Keep up the good work love to see this kind of stuff.Oh i was grown and out of the house when this truck was built.We had a couple of constructors from the mid 70s we used in Railroad Salvage work cleaning up derailments.
