I love these 3406 Cats in the Peterbilt 359 sounds absolutely Beautiful great job Guys!!

[@caseyn720]

Definitely good practice to put a towel in front of the turbo on cranking.

[@carsandmoods3593]

man that sound took me back to an 80s Peterbilt 359

[@michaelfreeland2791]

Love the sound of precup

[@jxaxrxlx]

Awesome donk! How a Diesel engine should sound👍🏻

[@Sailucia]

Right? That was such a fun engine rebuild. Hearing it fire up no issues and sound normal was such a satisfying moment!

[@jxaxrxlx]

Always have my heart in the back of my throat when firing an engine up after a rebuild 😂

[@carlmason4153]

Why are you standing in front of the front pulley on the initial fire up of a overhauled engine, can you trust it ????

[@jacobhaussmann90]

Why is he putting a paper towel over the turbo its not a carburetor

[@radhouanebenzirar9327]

Peace be upon you What is the reason for water mixing with diesel in the C18 engine?

[@caboverbenny]

Injector Orings if its in yoour Radiator

[@philmckrakin6752]

[@clewashingtonwashington1086]

Where does the the tachometer cable plugs into?

[@realmccoy9597]

Where the transfer pump is right before the injection pump.

[@clewashingtonwashington1086]

What exactly was the blue cloth doing ?

[@timdixon9224]

Gas on a rag to start it.

[@James-kd7dc]

He's awfully game holding that cloth there like that. Make a good day bad quick if that go sucked into the engine.

[@Darth-Nihilus1]

Direct injected or per combustion?

[@zeeshan_engineering_services]

Hmmm it's definitely looks pre combustion PC type as per long shaft drive of fuel injection pump.

[@michaelfreeland2791]

Long shaft drive doesn't make the difference. Difference are precombution chaimbers in the head and different pistons.

[@redline9536]

​@zeeshan_engineering_services I have a 3406A DI. The only way to tell is in the head. Alot were P.C. engine's though.

[@apoloherrera2868]

That motor get it, D8R, I get, all, specification, 's machine.

[@huvvy]

They had a 3406 b dipshit

[@robbiemiller9391]

Why does everyone have to crank the holy hell out of the starter? Give it a rest fellas

[@vicpetrishak1077]

If the mechanics would has pressurized the fuel system correctly it would have started in seconds .

[@carlmason4153]

As a Cat engineer, yes it would, not rocket science is it ???@@vicpetrishak1077

[@huvvy]

U are one if them can't crank for more than 3 seconds and right as it makes any kind of rattle u have to quit cranking go fuck urself ringworm
