Guess all is well. It does seem like keeping fuel out of the cab is a good idea, even if it is not historically correct.

[@chuckyf-u2395]

As a young man, I would think Matt would be able to pump that thing all day 🤣😅😂

[@donkeeton7897]

The white painted cat engines just like our company's cabovers had.

[@freighttrainjoe]

Orwell sounds so good!

[@carlloar3619]

Steve that is a beautiful truck! Going down the road👍

[@jamescummings7246]

Nice job Steve nice job training Matt well too that's good I like to see that teaching the young inside to do this stuff. What's next you going to get rid of that rusty old rim and tire?

[@maxracingteam23]

Chrome don’t get ya home

[@neilmcintosh1200]

You can't see it when your'e in it!

[@kennyspry5189]

DAMN Orwell looks Good coming down the road even with the Ugly Rim lol. Awesome video as always

[@richardhoneywell7411]

Glad to see you and Matt working on Orwell. Sounds great as it should one more problem fixed,

[@Chuck59ish]

Oh No! A modern fuel gauge in a Peterbilt! What's the world coming to?

[@michelchartrand7257]

C'mon Steve,when are you gonna change or paint that rusty wheel on Orwell ? :-)

[@gregorystewart6539]

This weekend a good project would be to paint the drive wheels. Gloss white rustoleum. Put down the red oxide primer first and use a brush for both applications. It goes on and finishes silky smooth. Be sure to stir the contents thoroughly to get the solids mixed in the paint.

[@jacquesleblanc602]

Get a transducer for the fuel pressure, then you can go electric from the rail to gauge.

[@scarlett-walker4908]

definitely go with the electric one steve, don't make the same mistake twice

[@tiredoldmechanic1791]

I suspect your problem with the gauges was an over pressure problem. You may have solved that with the relief valve.

[@kennethperian4370]

Good job putting on the pump, sounds great running 3406B motor. That’s the motor I got 3406B , I am going to go Thur the motor to make sure it is running good. Well see y’all next time have a great one see ya by.

[@tommyhall8301]

Good to see you an Orwell again buddy

[@THEGERVILLEVIEW]

My question got deleted? Hope not

[@THEGERVILLEVIEW]

If you can help me out figuring this out. I got a 1990 377 with a 3406B Cat. I lose power going up any hill, regardless if I am loaded or empty. I've replaced all of the fuel lines and turbo and air to air. No boost leaks and no exhaust leaks. I did replaced the fuel transfer pump. CAN you help out bro? Thanks

[@juliansibblies9374]

Good day my 3406 keep cutting off I change all the lines new prime pump we're can I check now

[@tonyalejandro6309]

What can be the symptoms of a bad fuel transfer pump ? My 3406 sputters for like 5 seconds when loaded in a slope

[@timatwell3728]

Sounds good Steve and Matt now if you could get the gauges fixed. are there any electric ones ? that would keep fuel out but y'all stay safe keep the video's coming

[@freesicily]

I subscribed on this channel too. I love the mechanical part.

[@johngoldsmith6629]

If you don't put a snubber in your fuel psi line. A mechanical gauge will not last. Cat has a TEN article July of 1985 to address this problem. Put a bunch in. The one I like to use is a 7S3795, had better luck with this one.

[@edreeder9853]

When the black smoke is not comming out of that b model , somethings not right, I drove one for many years , thats just how it is, My R model Mack with a 300, and 6 spd. was the same way but worse. Means your in the power band. Looks great !!!!

[@gregholmes3661]

You gotta take time and paint the back rims

[@nickcesario6360]

what was truck doin to make you replace the pump?

[@charlesfanderson8368]

Why does Orwell belch black smoke?

[@johngoldsmith6629]

Mechanical engine with the FRC set rich.

[@mikeschumann7832]

Okay now that left out side front drive wheel don't pull Orwell out of the shop till that's done .....rahure

[@robpeters5204]

You still have the yellow Pete. You should keep it and put the Detroit into it. Make for a bad ass show rig! There has been a lot of Pete cab overs on utube lately!

[@jeffbyrd7976]

Is the yellow Pete the new home of the buzzin duzzin? :)

[@jbbatulis3513]

Great work

[@djstoffe5553]

What final drive ratio you have on Orwell ?.

[@michaellangdonful]

Is that the 7FB??

[@jeovannijackson7169]

Hey what serial number turbo is it

[@windsorwill2261]

Orwell sounds a little stronger definitely...pulling harder

[@kizerbread]

Still got that yellow 352 hanging out huh

[@mikemartinsr5350]

Electric is definitely the way to go!

[@kendalalexander9666]

What up Steve

[@snipermex13]

How much pressure fuel pressure are you supposed to see at the top of the filter with a gauge ?

[@rubenayala2203]

Awsome truck. N stay from the chinesiom.lol

[@todddavis3233]

Saw another Peterbilt parked at outside the shop. When are you starting to overhaul it ? Does it get the Motor in the shop that you are rebuilding ?

[@maxracingteam23]

It’s sold but abandoned at Steve’s shop

[@mikeschumann7832]

I like the air intake and battery box set up love it 👍

[@بشارالمعموري-ن4ح]

1st good luck

[@ZZ-topp]

Who cares

[@frfrpr]

Orwell sounds good.

[@leebolinsky]

I love that sound

[@morriswilliams3142]

Orwell sounds whole lot better

[@jreid641]

I had not idea how complicated a diesel’s fuel system is.

[@Addddam21]

Please for god sake change out those rims.

[@mintyman1968]

New wheels cost a lot of 💰

[@skycowboy_7391]

@@mintyman1968 you can get them used all over the place dirt cheap

[@Nxsai]

I like the rusty wheel. Looks cool

[@Addddam21]

I bought used wheels and they where in great condition, for 50 dollars a rim, then got them polished. You can find them at any semi junk yard

[@ToyManFlyer1100]

OK, yalls... Lemme help you out...KZbin is all about " Interaction "... If thangs were perfect, yalls would be bored and not " interact"...Or complain...All KZbinrs leave summin undone for you to whine and complaints about... Thus mo" "Interaction"... Plus, I thinks he likes the rims like that...Shows he's not a " perfect" guy, just like the truck... That'll be $300.00 USD for my analysis... Cash Only...No chx, charge, or credit cards...He he..!!!

[@larryb1867]

When are you coming to fix your sound in the truck?? It's bad

[@williamshort4267]

Time to retire that black smoke beast put a DEF system on it lol

[@vernondeadmond740]

You don't want a DEF system more trouble than it's worth. Our company has a truck in the shop for an SCR sensor International says it will be 3 weeks before the part will be in to fix it the truck has 150,000 miles on it. DEF systems are a money maker for truck service companies. You can't just replace the sensor you have to replace the entire unit that the sensor is in. Cost around $850 bucks before labor plus the cost you loose not making money because the wheels are not turning. I would rather have money going up in smoke versus trying to get parts to fix it.

Put a clock in the hole,and ride!
