The fact that this thing not only start right up but drove after sitting for 4 years is amazing goes to show how well things were truly made back in the day

i would like to see someone try to start a 6.7 after sitting

I hope you start using it soon.I like this old dump truck.

I grow up in a trucking family the old trucks sounds a hell lot better the new trucks too much computers in them now

There's something so oddly satisfying about an old diesel cold start.

The air starter sounds so cool when it first engages

They don’t make vehicles that sound like that anymore. I definitely agree that the air starter sounds pretty cool.

That thing sounds AWESOME that lope & turbo whistle is great.

Not likely. Those older motors have no hp or torque compared to any motor 10 years newer than this one. It’s called technology. The only thing about these older ones is that yes they sound nice and mean

Not a chance. Newer diesels make double the power. It is more basic, easier to work on and far more reliable though

1967 Chevelle LSx exactly, an old mechanical will run long after a computerized one needs work

That turbo is nearly as big as the engine itself! Love it

that is one of the best sounding 6 cylinder diesels i have ever listened too pure diesel magic

Always loved those Freightliners. I would love one of those just to make my neighbors mad. Because they get angry when we start a Chevy C10.

Not bad for a truck that has been sitting for four years great job Tyler 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

I don't know much about diesels all I know is that I love how that thing sounds! I'm starting to like diesels even more!

Love the Dayton wheels on it!

That is one extremely healthy engine. Runs without a skip. No knocks no ticks. And on top of that it’s got 80psi of oil pressure at idle

Great sounding truck!! What a beast to turn around, damn!!

Got the dump truck running sitting there 4 years long time good engine need to move forward found new home start business awesome video keep up the good work friend bless you happy holidays Christmas

YAYY! Thanks so much Tyler!!! Good sounding truck!

Them cummins those things can sit for years but fresh fluids and batteries that'll start like they've been sitting overnight

Started like it sat overnight 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

What an incredible Tyler truck, I'd like to take a ride on it someday.

Put some air in the tires and let’s work 💪

Lee Majors yeah make sure you spend about 20 grand to replace all the dry rotted air lines and brake chambers. Oh wait, gonna cost more than 20k. Truck hasn’t seen grease and everything including all brake components, u joints and everything else is rusted. Truck would fall apart pulling a load and once you get rolling it won’t stop. It’s a scrap truck

popwarhomie Air stsarters are old old school. They were the height of cool during the 70's and 80's. Pain in the ass unless you had a perfectly air tight air system,otherwise they wouldn't hold enough pressure overnight. Needed something like 60 or 70 psi to turn the motor over.

holy shit thats a nice sound

You nearly got me man 😂 4 years SITTING not 4 years since last start! I'd say 40 minutes since last start

Man this really made my day!

Sounds great tyler

Cummins never dies

I have a friend his family has 10 dump trucks that have been sitting up for ten years. and they don't want to sale none of them. they guys father past away. and in his will it says they have to keep all of them no matter what. they can't sale the, part them out. so they have to get them.back running and the grand son gets them on his 21 birthday .

Sex to my ears hearing the ole' school Cummins running.

That would make a great farm truck. Thanks

That was awesome

thats awesome its got an air starter just like my IH dump truck !

what a cool sound !! YEAH!!

The old Cummins cutoff's had a manual bypass screw you could run in to let the engine run without a battery. Maybe this didn't have it. Can't beat the old rigs to death with a stick!

Just a Cummins that starts like that after 4 years💪🏻

Love it!

did you have to build up the air with a separate compressor? When they had air starters how did they start them if the air has leaked down overnight? just curious

The ole girl is hazing like crazy.

I freaking love it in the min 8.46

That fucking turbo sounds like pure music 🎶 bro

Music to my ears

god that sounds good. :)

with some tlc it could be put back to work good old truck

Air starters and their parts take up a lot of room and must be maintained. Most large diesel ocean going ships use air starters since they have the room and can generate the kind of high pressure it takes to start a 100,000 HP Diesel engine. Air is more reliable than electric start. Imagine the old submarines with electric motors, most of the ships hold was stuffed with massively heavy batteries that needed charging which meant the sub needed to come up for air. A very dangerous maneuver during war time.

How come the thing sat for 4 years? Was there a mechanical problem? It sounds good.

what manufacture year is the truck?

Ok thanks Bro

air starter? i drive a 2004 international eagle tri-axle but i am not familiar with air start. i guess if the air tank is empty you have to jump start it with an air compressor? how much air has to be in the system for it to be able to be started?

@robbie150

7 жыл бұрын

it needs about 90psi to the tank to use the starter and it lost air pressure due to a bad piping but we fixed it once you start it builds pressure to the tank with a air compressor

I like it

That rig sounds beautiful. I just love diesel power. Love air starts. They wing that engine over with ease. I have a 1990 12v Cummins Dodge 1-ton and will drive that as long as she goes. I bought a brand new Dodge in 2010 with the 6.7 cummins and only drove it a year before I sold it. I understand trying to be environmentally friendly, but the pollution requirements by the government on these engines rob them of so much power and not to mention are very costly to replace anything. All a 12v needs to get easy HP and torque is a boost elbow to go along with a fuel plate, some afc tuning, 3k governor springs and bump the timing to 16 degrees. Thanks for the vid, love seeing these old diesels get put back to work! What year is that Freightliner? (I apologize if this was already answered.)
