[@johnholl7717]

I know that the guy building the pump was camera shy, but thank him for allowing you to film his work. He is very talented.

[@dans_Learning_Curve]

He did a very good job despite being camera shy!!

[@k1n2g4]

He gave us an excellent explaination and view of the proces.. his face wouldn't add anything to this video.. wouldn't even call it camera shy this way.

[@Watchyn_Yarwood]

I hope he is aware of how much his talent is appreciated. Such a joy to watch someone who is so expert in their field.

[@howardgoetz7931]

And he is articulate and has a good voice. Enjoyed listening to him.

[@pauldiesel4582]

I think this skilled worker has no need to worry about AI or a robot replacing him anytime in our lifetime.

[@berniefudge4716]

Area Diesel is fortunate to have such talented employees.

[@SWHBOYCE]

...Agreed !!!

[@Watchyn_Yarwood]

Agree 100%!!!

[@petersmith5199]

Worth their weight in gold I would think! Pay em' well!

[@thomasmiller5502]

I am glad you are keeping the old iron running.

[@jeffreydunham2798]

The guy in this video perfectly exemplifies what knowledge, skill, and experience can accomplish if used intelligently. Great work, great video.

[@AreaDieselService]

Thanks for watching!

[@tedheierman1181]

It's really nice to see somebody "rebuilding" a part instead of tossing it in the a landfill and replacing the entire component!

[@elijah3807]

That has very little to do with skill set versus a throw away society in general. This pump comes from a time we were not throw away.

[@Machinist1755]

You have some real masters down there. They take pride in their work and you don't see much of that anymore.

[@paulhammond7489]

We all have some skills, but clearly there are those that have tuned their skill set to a much higher level. Nice to watch a 'Skilled' operator doing their thing...

[@paulwest3905]

Area Diesel to the rescue! Good to see you guys working with Matt once again, love watching the pros get it done.

[@madusan1]

Everyone has their own comfort level for being filmed. That being said, please pass on to the tech that I appreciate the knowledge and ability he has and showed. Of course, I would expect no less from Area Diesel Service 😊. Respect and cheers from Vancouver, Canada!

[@LyleBrand]

at least matt didnt send you a basket case this time.

[@ronmimnaugh7674]

Don't ever mess with that! unless you want to. Words to live by.

[@Midcon77]

I'm just amazed how complex such a relatively small engine component is. The expertise of your team is amazing! Great video!

[@AreaDieselService]

Thank you very much!

[@t.w.3]

What's more impressive imho is that many of these pumps were designed with little to no CFD.. Amazing mechanical wonders.

[@Liverpool270]

Take my hat off to guys who can do this like they are making a cup of coffee - skilled tradesmen

[@bladerunner6282]

another excellent description of the innerworkings of complex device. :)

[@jimdean7335]

Between you, Matt, and Sam I’m learning more about diesels than I ever thought I should know. And I love it. Keep it up.

[@SWHBOYCE]

Don't forget Mr. Clint at C+C Equipment !!!...Mr. Curt knows them too !!😃...

[@jmwarden1]

and C&C Equipment

[@georgehughes8698]

Excellent presentation on the full process of rebuilding a PT pump! I enjoy seeing professionals doing it the right way.

[@sirmister4411]

Finishing up a Cummins pump with a CAT shirt on. Wow a kick in the pants lol.

[@latisimusd]

What a Great team! Most won't get the deep details. Easy to watch and I like each one I see - it's a grin for me.😄

[@bobhudson6659]

Well done all. You showed what needs to be done to get pump back to factory quality. Also showed us in detail what to do, and why, and what not to do, and why. Great quality everywhere in knowledge, skill, workmanship and parts. Camera shy fellow did an excellent job and you can certainly see see this is not his first rodeo. He can remember exactly what part goes where and in what sequence. I am not in that league, though I have been trying for many years. Can get all the bits together and working just fine but many times it is one step forward and two steps back because I got something out of sequence. It is a bit far to send you any of my stuff (I am in Land Down Under) but for anyone in your neck of the woods, would certainly recommend ADS. 72 yr supposedly retired mechanic/machinist/welder/fabricator etc. Still have a 16M x 8M shed at home with lots of toys in it 'cause neighbours and others bring me stuff - they say they want to stave off dementia in me - haha. They certainly challenge me regularly.

[@stephenreiner1523]

Thanks for the extensive narrative.

[@AreaDieselService]

Thanks for listening

[@willb3018]

I knew nothing about these pumps. What an incredibly tedious process. Fun to watch pros doing their thing. Appreciate showing all this detail. I now know enough to know why everyone sends their stuff to you.

[@tomahoks]

Love this s&it. Much better than TV.

[@jaygraham5407]

Who needs TV??

[@stuartlast8156]

Professionalism all over !! 👏👏

[@OvalNowhere]

This fellow has given one of the very finest explanations of anything I have ever observed. He's outstanding. No bull, with him or from me. Thanks! I really thought this was a fine explanation of the pump!

[@OvalNowhere]

So, after writing the above, I checked out the other comments. There was a lot of agreement!

[@chadwynia5021]

They are probably happy to get a pump from Matt in one piece

[@chewyinTejas]

Not all heroes wear capes…

[@bobbrink3635]

🎉very interesting the things you guys do to bring all this old stuff back to working condition. I'm glad Matt showed us who and what you do so we can watch the action. Thank you for all you do and thank you for showing us.

[@JlerchTampa]

1:05:50 "Don't ever mess with that (screw), unless you want to." Love you guys!

[@Geoff-pd9qh]

You can see the experience oosing out there🎉

[@gilbertelliott5755]

The skill of a Swiss watch maker... outstanding...

[@Sircraig7963]

Shout out to the crew at AREA DIESEL, As a retired Marine Engineer, I found your video very professional & informative , as always its a pleasure to watch skilled operators undertaking their chosen profession. Congratulations to Area Diesel for a job well done . Respect....!

[@Jacks_Mehoff]

Awesome content and support graphics……. Thank you

[@AntonioClaudioMichael]

Great explanations as always On how these Pumps Work came over from Diesel Creek Channel 4:00 I have seen lots of videos from you guys over the years from other youtube Creators i was watching @Area Diesel Service

[@nattydreadlocks1973]

The tech should get on camera. He'd be a rock star.

[@lordcaptainvonthrust3rd]

Thanks Matt Always love to see stuff from ADS And a big thumbs up to the talented team at Area Diesel Service for your expertise and entertaining content 👍

[@AreaDieselService]

Our pleasure!

[@jeansimongat]

Thank you area diesel service for the video. ❤

[@jamescole1786]

Love the 3D animated graphics as Curtis, at the parts counter, identifies numerous internal components while pointing/touching the various 'knobs' outside of the Cummins mfg PT injector pump. The graphics & EZ to follow explination was worth the $1500 just to watch & listen! 'Ole Matt (Diesel Creek) gotta love your ADS total rebuild, calibration/testing, new injectors, paint & Swag! Another very professional presentation! 💪👍✅️😊🍺

[@stevebartle3893]

He sure makes that look easy. I'm thinking there is a pretty good learning curve on those.

[@robdeaton9910]

You guys rock, you do a great job of explaining what the heck is going on. I found you through Matt (Diesel Creek) and Mike from (Dirt Perfect). You guys do great work and I enjoy your videos.😊😊

[@jamesgrieve1336]

Good viewing - Injector pump strip/inspect/refurb are rare to see. This was really nicely done. Pleasure to watch.

[@bcbloc02]

My NTA420 small cam put 612 to the tires back in the 90s. It has been doing that ever since hauling grain at 80k plus pounds no issues. Keep rail pressure below 300 and things should be ok.

[@steevalen-eq1cd]

HE MAKES IT LOOK LIKE A WALK IN THE PARK . I THINK ONE COULD SAY HE HAS DONE ONE OR TWO OF THEM 😂😂

[@HANKTHEDANKEST]

Remember when you were a kid, and you'd catch a Jetsons/Flintstones crossover on the ol' rabbit ears? This is like that, but much better. Really cool that Matt's truck comes from such a neat place and job, and rad that you're able to help get the rig going again.

[@garyh3823]

Totally appreciate how you explain everything. Love the diagrams and graphs and everything yall put into this video!!

[@trevorvanbremen4718]

Absolutely LOVED the comment "But don't ever mess with that... Unless you want to" (You even gave Matt a 'ballpark' of how MUCH to 'mess with it'. i.e. a full turn is a BUNCH, so go half / quarter turn!) Customers are human... And Matt is 'more human' than most!

[@denissharp2471]

Hello from the UK, having driven a fair few Cummings powered trucks in my 46 year career, I learned so much about the fuel injection pumps fitted to the two big cam engines fitted to British ERF trucks I once drove back in the day. Absolutely fascinating viewing and expertly narrated too, you both made it totally understandable. I shall look forward to seeing this on Matt's rebuilt engine. Well done to Area Diesel for this vid.

[@scott_small]

Thanks for the step by step, and please pass thanks to the tech that let us shoulder-surf!

[@jaygraham5407]

Absolutely phenomenal video. Now I know the rest of the story of the Cummins PT pump. THANK YOU

[@adhdrebel982]

It's good to find a diesel pump shop that does a video of pt rebuilds and does simple service - owner shade tree insights THANKS ! GUYS I have a L10 Cummins with turbo and PT pump self taught to service and simple maintenance before I found you.

[@DavidBall-v5i]

Informative. How a PT pump works in a nutshell. Thanks!!!😊❤

[@waynebrundidge206]

I always enjoy watching the tear down and rebuilding of the equipment.

[@SWHBOYCE]

Always informative !!...Great rebuild !!....

[@howardfallfall2710]

Hi fascinating to see these pumps repaired I had a big cam in my leyland roadtrain here in the uk rated at 320 bhp and it went like a sewing machine it’s great to see your man rebuild this pt pump he’s great to watch let’s see more of his work he’s a star keep up the brilliant work best regs Howie in the uk 👍

[@Tony-tj1yq]

thank you so much, man you are awesome

[@josephshultz6726]

Excellent work. Really impressive. Enjoyed the comment " don't ever mess with that, unless you want to"

[@marvinjohnson867]

Great job guys, can't wait to see Matt get this project done and hauling some equipment.

[@alanfarenden8244]

Dont ever mess with this, unless you want to! Brilliant.Thanks Curtis.

[@garysoykin2783]

It's just incredible the knowledge your company has

[@nevillegoddard4966]

I'll bet Matty is gonna enjoy this video at least as much as I did! You guys are absolute gurus! This pump is gonna run like a Swiss watch on Matty's autocar! Thanks for making such a professional video, & doing such a professional job!

[@ronaldclark7746]

Thanks for doing these

[@AreaDieselService]

More to come!

[@tonyshepherd39]

Another great video ! Thanks for sharing !👍

[@AreaDieselService]

Thanks for watching!

[@robdeaton9910]

Oh I almost forgot about Clinton from C & C Equipment, he has mentioned you as well.😊

[@wazza33racer]

Clessy Cummins, invented both the "Jake brake" and the PT fuel pump. Both are marvels of mechanical genius. The PT pump and unit injectors used in the NTC Cummins engines were unmatched for being low cost to maintain and very rugged. Nothing else came close, by comparison all the inline conventional pumps were economically hideous to fix. One unique feature of the PT pump, is that if an idiot driver over revved the engine down hills badly enough, it had a failure mode that caused the engine to stop. Great way to identify a bad driver and fire them. I can remember, people spending US $10,000 dollars in the 1990's to fix Bosch pumps on V8 Mack engines.

[@michaeldove5472]

Thanks for showing the details of rebuilding a fuel injection pump. Very interesting for all of us that don't see these that often. I know that you folks have a very reputation, ive heard about you guys from several different sources.

[@garymessina1609]

Great job great explanation great video thanks Curtis and crew

[@Ian-n5v]

You make a great video Well done Cheers

Confident professionals sharing their trade and passion. Thanks for sharing such detailed videos. Your precision and care is awesome to watch!

[@douglasallman1039]

I enjoy watching you guys work. Awesome. I know without a doubt that if I have anything diesel related, I am going to you guys.

[@FAL0perator]

Great work gents, excellent collaboration with diesel creek!

[@robco6997]

Great rebuild and loved the mention of the "HOLD MY BEER SCREW"

[@MrPlod999]

Really nice to see how you make it back to top-ticket.

[@johnhutchins9788]

I have always wanted to know more about how the PT pump works. This is probably the most informative video I’ve seen. Thank you and your team this video!!!!

[@AreaDieselService]

Glad it was helpful!

[@jmsmaxwell]

Love the channel and detailed breakdown of what you do and why!

[@MWestern-m4g]

Fantastic. Thanks for all you do. Rockin it in Carlinville!

[@JPTV3000]

AreaDieselService Dear KZbin OOOMMMGGG 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯👎🤯 I watch this entire video from beginning to end and I am BLOWN AWAY 👍👍👍👍👍 I also own a 1988 FLC Bigcam400 Semi truck.... I'm speechless

[@CapnBubbaa]

Great Video...Very educational...

[@AreaDieselService]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@jonstaum8297]

Great vid, clear description of the work througout and good clarification. Keep it up!

[@clarencewiles963]

I was looking forward to this one.

[@kirkbowman7452]

Fantastic explanation with the supporting animation

[@kennyk3989]

Outstanding job!!! If I ever needed work done you’d definitely be on my speed dial. Stay safe

[@jeremycable51]

Mr camera shy is a absolute beast excellent work my friend

[@davecollins6113]

Been about 48 yrs since I last watched someone rebuild one of those pumps, worked at Cummins for a couple of yrs, did our own rebuilds back then, before Cummins Recon existed, they'd do batches of whatever component they had a few of to do at the time, one week may be fuel pumps, one wk could be injectors, or a mix of lube pumps, water pumps, compressors, accessory drives, Cummins fan hubs, Schweitzer fan hubs. We wouldn't sell buttons across the counter to someone that didn't have a pump stand, had lots of requests though. Cummins Recon didn't really happen til mid 80's. Still a few H models around back then, had disc pumps on them, still sold NT262 conversion kits for the old 220's. Was there for BC1 unveil and BC2 unveil.

[@tdotw77]

42:55 "Get it wet a little bit" "Slip it right down in there!" 🤷🏻‍♂️👍🏻👌🏻👈🏻😂😂🤔🤦🏻‍♂️ Couldn't resist!

[@LAP1050]

That was very interesting. Watching the technician work his craft knowing that he’s just rebuilt the heart ❤️ of the engine it will serve has to be very satisfying and he certifies ✍️ it to be on spec… Good job Sir 👍🇺🇸 Curtis, don’t sell yourself short, you did an excellent job explaining the process 👏 Can’t wait to hear the AutoCar come to life. Thank you ! It’s no wonder Matt speaks so highly about “Area Diesel Service”

[@randydobson1863]

hello Area Diesel Service & it's is Randy and i like yours video is cool & Thanks Area Diesel Service & Friends Randy

[@bigbossman3877]

That constructor's twin, that you see in the silver spade photo is still in service, working at Seneca Landfill now.

[@wes11bravo]

A diesel injection pump that reliably functions with accuracy and precision for years of hard use with minimal maintenance simply by virtue of its excellent mechanical design and build quality impresses me more than its equivalent run by a computer. Once again, you guys impress me with your knowledge and skill. I will not hesitate to give ADS a call when I find an old M1008 6.2 Squarebody to work on.

[@fergusmoloney]

Brilliant video.

[@emilschw8924]

It is interesting to think that pre-1990's diesel injectors and pumps was designed without any computers or CAD software... Only in the later part of the 1980s was there CAD and computer software... Hats off to those engineers who visualized and designed those engines, injectors and pumps! T

[@gt1man931]

I came in to this video knowing jack squat about these but now I don't feel quite as lost when looking at YT channels where guys like Matt are wrenching on their stuff. A really well done presentation without filling it with hard to understand technobabble.

[@tarheelpatch3386]

Converted many Disc injector pumps with adapter and a pt pump

[@richardturk7162]

I had a big cam 400 in a 77 Pete 359. Mine had the old style pump and it was turned up a bit.

[@philliphall5198]

I still have all my tools because I worked for Cummins for 25 years I enjoyed it very much and still remember all the torque specs and I’m 73 now

[@slabrankle9588]

I admire this sort of mechanical expertise. These guys can build anything.

[@robertkaplan1146]

Thanks for this video. Well made and explained and it gives the customer appreciation for all the work required for the rebuild. I need to get mine serviced next week. Currently running a 400 Cummins in a K123 Kenworth Cab over 1976 vintage. Truck runs like a charm. Cheers from Australia.

[@LarryO777]

A very informative video and well produced. Thank you. I love to see the work of true master craftsmen. You are a dying breed!

[@markandkimmacadam2854]

You guys do great work.

[@AreaDieselService]

Thank you!

[@shawnleek4970]

Outstanding video! I am subscribed to Matt and watch all his work. The knowledge in your shop must be crazy. It would be a great place to hang out and just help out where needed. Drive on and be safe out there.

[@bryancooper2699]

Awesome video . I hope to see him install it soon and get it running
