A well deserved smile again. This was a better one then the tractor last year. The reason why the high pressure diesel lines are bent like that, is to make sure that the length of the line is the same, in a way they have all the same pressure-loss/delay.

I am jealous, I would love to rebuild an old diesel like that. I have an old Oliver tractor with a Waukesha diesel that is stuck we have dumped all sorts of crap in the cylinders trying to free it up. Haven’t spent too much time on it after that. For painting you can use grease on areas you don’t want painted and it just wipes right off.

22:03 The loops in the injector lines are because they all have to be exactly the same length so injection timing doesn't get messed up. Takes a certain amout of time for each fuel pulse to go through the lines from pump and get to injectors. So if one was longer than others it wouldn't be perfectly injected ontime. Those fuel pumps are the real magic boxes when it comes to these things! How those things shoot exactly where & how much to each cylinder with ignition advances and all, throughout the RPM range, under loads is crazy. Also i like the " basically witch craft" comment about what happens inside a turbo when you were describing it. 😂 I love turbos, especially diesel engine turbos! The Magic box & witch craft makes me happy!👍🏻👌🏻🚜🛠️🔩🔧🛢️💥💨

I don't think you can go wrong with Rotella T-6 after the break-in period. It's not like this is a high reving race engine or something. Maybe even the Rotella T-5 semi-synthetic would be fine too. I don't think the full synthetic oil is absolutely necessary in an engine like this.

Yeah lots of guys are saying just run the t4 since it’s a flat tappet engine 🤷🏻‍♂️

@ekkarzbastlirny5769

Ай бұрын

That's right, the exact reason for this is that diesel, like other liquids, is incompressible only in theory, in reality it compresses by up to one percent at the pressure that is normally injected into the cylinder. With pipes of different lengths, this would be enough to cause such a large inaccuracy in the timing that the engine could be started, but it would not rev up - or in the opposite case, it would practically not be possible to start, because it would only achieve regular operation at higher revolutions. The secondary advantage of this method is that as a spare part it is enough to carry only 1 pipe between the injection pump and the injector - in the event of any malfunction, the spare one simply bends and does not need to be shortened.

Great job on the build. The bends in the injection lines are to make them all the same length.

Injection line loops: so that all lines are the exact same length to maintain the timing relationship cylinder to cylinder.

I have one in a ford l9000 . 300hp air to air. One of our best engines .

Always have a board that you can place over the air intake, that will shut a runaway engine down. that is the quickest way to stop them in that case.

Brilliant job doesn’t matter if jobs is done late as long it’s done right in first place. They one thing when you restore something it’s just like it come off the production line

The bends in the injection lines are to make them all the same length 👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

wow bro, it runs perfect 🎉👍👍 Great Job , that CTP spares are amazing 🔧

21:50 Timing loops. Each line needs to be the same length/volume to minimize timing variation between injectors. Now before somebody says you can't compress a liquid... there is a boat load of entrained air. There is a boat load of surface area of the line that deflects for each injection event. Uniformity improves engine performance.

Sounded good and even. CTP seemed to provide quality parts. No issues, not even minor. They were sending parts to a guy building a 3306 in a residential garage. 6 months is reasonable deliverable. LOL.

Thanks Ed!!

What kind of crazy brake-in does this need!? My last rebuild was an International DT466 and the break-in procedure for seating the rings, in my opinion was impossible without a dyno. It was something like 75% load and cycle the cooling fan half a dozen times as soon as possible no idioling or messing about. Start it check for leaks and smash on it!

the loops in some lines are for length matching. If some lines were longer than others the pressure would be different and the injectors might not fire from low pressure or fail from too high pressure.

Great work and it runs sweetly 😁

ty, the bends are in the lines to make them all the same length. unlike electricity, the pulse of the fuel takes a calculated time to arrive at the injectors. if the lines were at different lengths, the timing would be different at each cylinder.

Injection lines need to be all the same length that's why the short ones have the bends

If you ever want to stop a diesel run away, get yourself a Co2 fire extinguisher. Very effective, more so than the block of wood as you could have an intake gasket leak which will still suck air and keep it running.

Thanks to Costex - sounds like a solid runner! "Past nap time" - did he sleep through all that noise? One alternate trick I've heard to prevent a runaway is a block of wood over the air intake. Verifying the fuel shutoff as you did is the best though.

you did it again. Great job

They put bends in the line because of the pressure they bend and flex and may fracture if its just a single straight line so hence the bend ie the loop it gives them more strength when under operation

Nice work.

the bends in the lines are to ensure that they are all the same length!

Mighty fine job 😊

You finally got there. The older stuff usually isn't compatible with modern oils and coolants.

Mobil ran synthetic in a diesel truck for 100,000 miles without changing it (decades ago), no wear.

The high pressure fuel lines on mechanically injected engines are bent so they are all the same length. If they were different lengths the timing would be off.

I have watched plenty of your videos thus I offer the following.... Raise the fuel tank above the engine. The engines I have seen you work on do not have lift pumps. They put the tank at or above the level of the high pressure pump and in this case especially you are expecting a pump that PUSHES to SUCK. and that is not the same. In this case you may have started at the bleed screw on the filter and fill it from the top down. I can not stress enough that pulling fluid is not pushing fluid and any air between the pump and injectors stops all flow. cheers. you are great mechanic and raising another one too. Bless you for taking your son to the shop and working with him on an engine NOT sitting in the house watching TV and the net. Keep him away from iphone as long as you can.

What all did you do to the engine for it to take nine months. I started on a 955L with a cracked head, pulled the engine and tore it down to the block.

The pits in the liners are from to much water in the cooling system.The water makes tiny air bubbles and they stick to the sleeve and when they pop they start eating away at the liners and you will actually get oil in the water cause the piston coming up on competition stroke and the small amount of oil that fills the hole gets pushed threw in too the cooling system I had a Detroit 60 18 wheeler do it to me years ago
