CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE!! CAT 773B…lets fix it!! Part 1

[@wbball15]

Q's kitty goes to pieces. Watch the adventure that ensues.

[@Eremon1]

Big machines, big tools and big problems. She'll be up and running in no time. Cheers.

[@TsunauticusIV]

Pretty wild that the truck could run and operate to the point where it was not noticeably broken. Compare that beast to a modern civilian daily driver vehicle… a tiny problem like a funky o2 sensor and the vehicle will cry and complain and de-rate itself to 35mph and run like it just threw a rod. 😂I love old Cat equipment. Stuff was built right.

[@bobbyt2657]

Cats are overbuilt .. They keep going and going until .. like this one, they literally DIE !! Replace the motor and off they go again !!!!

[@bobbyt2657]

And here we go again ... Casey Ladelle to the rescue !!! He is one fine gentleman !!!

[@jeffclark2725]

that will be a great road trip video

[@johncraig406]

hey, Casey LaDelle is one of my favorite channels to watch.... I believe he introduced me to your channel.

[@bobbyt2657]

I hate Casey Ladelle !!! No, I have not ordered the shirt ... the cheap one would fit Riley fine !!!

[@larryjohns8823]

Need to add a weather report to the start of your videos. Working on heavy iron in the cold is brutal 😮

[@oneeyedjack4727]

I've heard it said by other mechanics, "sometimes everything is a hammer". The work has to get done!

[@robertquast9684]

A tear down video showing the destruction would be awesome

[@quintonbartolotta]

Stay tuned

[@emilschw8924]

Was about to ask the same. It will be interesting to see if there's any damage. Going to be really funny if all the oil squirters are in place and that oil squirter was just an extra coming along for the ride 😂

[@williambarry8015]

Thats a technical, hard, dirty job with no toom for error.

[@0dbm]

You did all that on potato and eggs 🥚, excellent work

[@papatomsthoughts]

Too bad about the engine, thats an expensive fix. Being in Northern Alberta, I see these trucks, and much bigger, go by and have been in 9ne of oil field shops, the fact that you are doing what your doing with limited resources is amazing. Great video

[@jeffclark2725]

This gives a new meaning to a cam and lifter swap, Great project, thanks for bringing us along

[@professorfalken4600]

Looking forward to Casey and part 2

[@poorfarmerlogger]

Well that escalated quickly lol. Hopefully the r&r went smoothly as I imagine it’s back up and running now again.

[@earlearl8850]

Great videos!!! As always!! BETTER than Hollywood!!! But everyone knows scrambled eggs rule!!

[@jerryspangler6658]

2 questions, 1 did you drain off some of the extra oil in crank case , 2 why don't you drag a air line out there and air up the air system .

[@petes7796]

Good old Casey to the rescue. great video😅

[@Don_ECHOguy]

Excellent stuff, can't wait for #2

[@bjolley8686]

That’s just crazy. Hope the engine replacement goes smoothly 😮

[@lucmarchand617]

3306 got same ditcher barber-greene with banister pipelines 10 years ago.he found somebody put washers from bolt bin on head yup.he got cat kit rebuild before too late.i am glad pick up on time before seize.😮

[@tdotw77]

🤔🤦🏻‍♂️😅🤷🏻‍♂️

[@Fubarru81]

Glad to see you back !!!!!

[@MikeInBendOregon]

As you said Quinton, good videos for us, definitely not for you... Lookin forward to the swap video. I really like the looks of the 773B

[@roberthutchison6019]

Good to get my iron king fix

[@jasontengan4554]

Right before I left my last company, the same happened to an old 769, boss decided it wasn't worth a new engine, got towed to the parts yard, maybe fix one day!

[@edshelden7590]

Are there any parts salvageable from the old engine? Does CAT have a core exchange?

[@jessev4615]

what a beast great video, speaking of service trucks did u ever use old international service truck u bought used awhile back and did the video were u drove it back across the state to your shop?

[@quintonbartolotta]

Yes I have

[@fredhinck9685]

Bought at auction ????? How many hrs since OH ????

[@johnknudsen3230]

Took a little bit of investigation but hearing casey talk about you made me think I know who that is. So I came to your channel to see if I was right. Yep I never met you but I worked on some your Wheelers with hamms offroad. Lol

[@loghog4392]

I'm a logger. I like to log. A lot. But that means that you have to have equipment that works. And that means that you have to work on equipment. I despise working on equipment. I just subscribed to your channel. (Stupid logger. LOL)

[@CaseyLaDelle]

Well that didn’t take long 😂

[@bobbyt2657]

Where is the video of it all ?????

[@LukeLong-oi4uc]

Great job and content.👍🏼

[@wbball15]

Quinton, can you hook up a fitting to the air tanks to fill from an outside compressor?

[@quintonbartolotta]

These tanks are undneath the cab, with it being a water truck it would take hours to access them since the bed dosent raise

[@quintonbartolotta]

Im eating my words right now, watch part 2 and you will see why

[@henrycarlson7514]

So Wise , Thank You . As a concept would it be practical to do a reman? I know that would take time and cost money. Are rebuild parts avalable?

[@jefferyyoung6836]

That’s the way it goes, 😢 at least you have an another engine available.

[@G-Man-kc2nm]

It may be time to add a bigger bay to your shop! You have been working on some monsters. Hopefully you will tear this engine down to see what happened. Thanks.

[@danimal0921]

WOOOOOO HOOOOOO!!! CRAP'S A FIXIN' TO GET WESTERN ON US!!!!!

[@wildcoyote34]

just out of curiosity which engine is this ,, it looks like a 3412 ,, i own a couple 3408 engines and it looks a lot like them just bigger

[@quintonbartolotta]

Yep 3412

[@wildcoyote34]

@@quintonbartolotta cool , that's one big engine

[@ducewags]

@@wildcoyote34 In the world of CAT, the 3412 is a "mid size" engine.

[@wildcoyote34]

@@ducewags i do know this ,, i've worked on a few bigger engines ,,like a 12V149 ,,always wanted to get my hands on a 3412

[@ducewags]

@@wildcoyote34 3412's fresh rebuilds ready to go, just a phone call away. Well in my area of Minnesota it's a thing.

[@t.l.robinson2162]

Thank you for another great video.

[@SuND4a1]

I came there from Catey's channel. I initially like to watch all these off-road recovery, and found Catey's channel this way. I find his truck recovery activitied to also be really interesting and entertaining. But now that, mining truck maintenance, it only gives me anxiety. I've got the feeling that every part that you remove could squeeze you to death if you do something wrong 😅. It's nerve wracking 🥲. You are doing a heal of a job, I'm not even dreaming of feeling like I could manage it even if I had the knowledge and all the knows-to. I wouldn't trust myself to be enough aware of what I'd be doing. Great job and keep safe.

[@sachord86]

What is a push tube?

[@darrylphipps2221]

Cool Engine Take Apart ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@ps-ic8pm]

What's a new engine cost?

[@quintonbartolotta]

100K plus 50K core

[@knowltek]

3:25 needs a cast iron grill..js. 😂😂😂..🎉🎉🎉..cheers

[@suzylarry1]

that tube may have been the catalyst of the other failures . intently watching

[@tdotw77]

Gotta love that Atomic dcf921! Those things are so nice! Super powerful for the tiny size they are. Dcf900(899 gen 1) is so big, unless you really need the torque & power! 🛠️🔧🔩⛓️👍🏻👌🏻🚜🚚🚧⚠️🛢️

[@heavymachinery2843]

Heavy equipment repair hell yeah 👍

[@localcrew]

Needed an oil change anyway.

[@jacobbuckley8232]

Is that a new shop?

[@DIRTVENTURE]

My little 1pz rebuild looks so small compared to that massive kitty cat

[@EatCarbs]

Pretty cool.. thanks for the video

[@371508129]
