That marvel mystery oil was draining straight into the oil pan through the oil return galleys. If you want it in the cylinders, you need to pull the injectors.

[@chevafootbrave7875]

Best way Pull it to a hill Roll it down. Use clutch to break the speed down. When the thing rolls freely, engine in gear 🤨 turning freely, simply stop the truck and shoot in starting fluid, as one crank it

If it was the 8v92 Detroit...it would have fired right up. Ive seen a Buzzin' Dozen in one of these..they used it to haul gigantic loads up in northern Canada. They used 2 stroke Detroits in these mainly in the colder areas, Cummins in the warmer areas.

[@bertgrau3934]

If the engine was/is locked up it wouldn't make any difference, I have seen 2 stroke Detroits that locked up do to lack of oil, or water in the oil to say IF it was a Detroit it would fire up is an incorrect assumption.

[@netrioter]

@@bertgrau3934 Well look at the 53/71/92 DDC expert...how many years experience do you have working on them? Drop some knowledge on us.

[@bertgrau3934]

@@netrioter I was in the trucking business for 44 years, I have lots of experience with lots of different engine makes, Detroit, Cummins, cat, Perkins, Mercedes, and Volvo. The only Detroit that made real power was the 92 and the 12V71 they were both low fuel mileage engines. I've seen the newer Cummins , (15 liter) after 1 million miles tend to throw a rod. Don't know why. The cat had problems with the cylinder liners not being the correct deck height, which would cause the head gasket blow that was the newer engines as well. The older cats were better, but would Break the bank when they did Break down. The older Mack's were good engines, the newer Mack engines weren't bad either, when Volvo took over Mack, the quality went out the door. Don't know about the Volvo engine now, maybe Volvo got the bugs worked out. The Mercedes 16 liter V8 is a good engine as well, runs strong and dependable, but gets horrible fuel mileage. ( can't get that engine in the USA , can't pass USA EPA requirements) live in the USA but I drove both Mercedes and Volvo in Kuwait, and Iraq. The Volvo engine used in their European trucks seem to be much better than the American engines as well. The one thing I like about the 2 stroke Detroits, is the noise they make. The fuel mileage is bad, and the power is down.

If I'm not mistaken, '84 was the last A model 900, then in '85 came the 900 B model, then as a prototype for the James Bond movie was the first 900 L model in '89 which was the 007 W900L. The original plan was to not mass produce the 900L, rather use the prototype and/or however many it took to make the movie, however, Kenworth saw how popular they were among the trucking industry through the public eye and decided to continue the model for the working man. Thank God!

I can only speak for Australian W models i first drove one in the mid 80s it had a black 400 cummins, a fifteen speed road ranger 1810 driveline, with 44000 lb diffs on a Hendriksen suspension, it was the best truck I ever drove I loved that truck. carted 80,000 kgs {80 ton} of wheat on two trailers in to the Bin at Walgett NSW . It would easily blow the doors of any 400 mack , especially in the hills believe it or not. you could change gears so fast it was awesome no clutch required. I noticed your truck had a late model gearstick. in Australia some of them came out with a 13 speed R/R. .but would have been with the big chrome knob and a sliding range change and splitter button. most of the trucks on the east coast had cummins motors and 15 speed R/R on the west coast 13speed R/R . I drove 3 different one over the years they where all awesome. Why do American trucks always have lawn mower tanks, it must drive you mad fueling up all the time. how do you get on when your out in the back blocks carting 6 decks of cattle or something like that. plus they look odd. .the view over big bonnet was awesome . as good as the view over the bonnet of a Western Star ,Heritage series. another awesome truck..

[@_lolbit_6700]

You should get a hold of jentry& sons he is looking for one on youtube .

[@garyfeltus9801]

All depends what it had for a trany . The right gearing yes it could do 130 mph . This one is definitely a no-go. . Great video guys as they all are.

[@Hfoutdoorsyt]

Thanks Phillip. We appreciate it

[@bertgrau3934]

After all, it was abandoned for a reason. What we don't know and is also possible, the transmission, and/or drive axles could have major problems as well. The owner could have figured its not worth fixing. The owner may have still owed money for it . A lot of possible reasons for leaving the truck.

[@taskinyucekurt]

Do you remember you both got same truck in last july? it was runing tho. Btw, you poured marvel mistery oil to the cylinder head, but here is the thing, you cant reach to the cylinders from head esp in diesels there is no another hole except injectors. You have to pull injectoıs out to put some oil in to the compression chamber. Your marvel mistery oil went in to nowhere but crank case. Remember oil filling neck is on top the cylinder head cover, oil goes to crank case then oil pan. Of course if it is not making oil itself smiles. Always fun to watch your videos esp when wiley is in there too, Good job guys...

There is a way of turning the engine over use the gearbox take the gearbox in first gear bolt a bar to the prop flange can sticker a come along on it it will either slip the clutch or break the engine free or if you're feeling dangerous you can try pouring boiling oil into each cylinder but that's best done in a workshop with the engine out
