d6-9u gets new injectors.

Installing new injectors in the d6, and the knock is finally found.

[@mrmiscast]

No doubt, Jeff is a class act... He's one of those "Forgot more than most people have ever learned" sortof guys...

[@Digginok]

Yup

[@Jpaydirt]

@@Digginok yup

[@rudycarlson8245]

@@Digginok did you get those new injectors from caterpillar or are they rebuilt ones?

[@Jpaydirt]

That's unbelievable that it would run with that much play LOL

[@Digginok]

Well caterpillars are the best right?

[@waynep343]

On the injection tester cup. Figure out if you can get a bolt and a nut of the same thread. Chuck it in the lathe. Drill thru the middle. Get a stainless steel drinking cup. Figure out how to mount the prefilter to the bolt head. Fixed. As for the cat. Somebody will want it. Or C&C equipment will pick it up on a return trip from dropping off a machine.

[@Digginok]

Well…. Fixing the fuel bowl is not complicated, but it’s the principle of me thinking a 70$ injector tester would be a good investment. They are sending a replacement, hopefully it will not cause me to start the lathe! Thanks for watching!

[@thomaspetroff9117]

Nice job finding your knock. Took the long way to get there, but you found it. I agree need to pull the cap and see how bad. We all know what the crank will look Like, you've come this far. Don't scrap it, list it. I would do purple wave before market place. So many tire kickers when you list something. I've got a 74 50 ton LoadKing Easy Fold I would like to sell, but the tire kickers Wear me out. Keep us posted and Yes Jeff is a national treasure. TGP

[@Digginok]

Yeah I should have done the obvious first, but sometimes you get in a certain direction and keep going till ya know where you went wrong. Good advice on the sell!

[@greggb1416]

Yep, after you came back at the end of the video…, I thought to myself Frank ain’t leaving it at that… I figured we would be seeing another video post next weekend, with the pan off, and Frank live streaming to “Jeff” video images of the crank. That is…, the “Frank” we all know. Great video series here “backhoeman”, Thank you sir.

[@Digginok]

We will see! Thanks for watching

[@malcolmyarnold6172]

Hi mate love watching you work on the old d6 and giving me some hints on the old girl keep up the good work

[@Digginok]

Thanks for watching!

[@terrellscaife2411]

That’s a neat old tractor

[@albertmcalister9066]

Love the videos. I say there is a 50/50 chance that Jeff and you talk you into fixing the 9.

[@Digginok]

I’d say the odds are not in your favor! 😂

[@ohhpaul7364]

well dang, Frank. Do you think the crankshaft is done too? Doesn't take long with no bearings on the rods. That Jeff Anderson really is something else, been watching him since he did the Super Slot Dozing video. I had no idea what it was and I am glad I took the chance on a random video that day.

[@Digginok]

We shall see? Jeff’s alright

[@peterkaks4395]

Am out in Kleinburg ON and I have been watching your videos and then watch Jeff and what a great vibe of you two sharing knowledge. You will surely learn so much off Jeff . He has seen it and fixed so many different machines in his life . Am sure you will figure out the knock

[@Digginok]

Thanks for watching! Always something to learn

[@Blazefork]

Cracked piston skirt or noodled out small end on a rod possibly or a spun rod brg.

[@hpda44]

Great video. It would be fun to see you repair that engine, but sometimes you have to when call it quits.

[@Digginok]

Assets sometimes become a liability, gotta know when sometimes. 😂 thanks for watching

[@richardphelan8414]

Area diesel service for your injector ,Pump and Turbo needs ,Highly recommended .

[@Digginok]

Thanks for the info

[@alexosborne5629]

Certainly testing your patience, Frank ! There was a lot of play on the rod, my initial thought was the piston hitting the top of the chamber, but that is just an uneducated guess.....

[@Digginok]

Very well could be interference with piston and head at that slack!

[@farronmccathern1849]

My son has a 9U with a good engine it hasn't in about 4 years but does run well, he is wanting to sell it but hasn't listed it anyplace. its located near Clinton if interested give me a shout back!

[@roberthansen3546]

Would it be possible take off the side covers and rack the connecting rods and see if you you can feel rod bearing or wrist pin slack.

[@georgeenriquez612]

Jeff a good guy

[@Digginok]

Yup!

[@robertsprafke9376]

I’m wondering if you took a laser temp gauge and checked the exhaust temperature of each cylinder to locate the problem cylinder?

[@EdgarLuisCosta]

Yes, take the crankcase cover and see if it's a big damage or not.

[@EdgarLuisCosta]

Maybe the problem is the connecting rods bottom bearings with too much wear or the crankshaft.

[@memyselfandifarmer]

Dogs and scrap price are the best.

[@OldredfordReilly]

I wouldn't scrap it seeing that it will run. Worst case of needing a new crank and rods is probably cist prohibitive. Would make a good parts machine.

[@Digginok]

Good points!

[@oldfarmer4700]

Vevor or is just about like harbor freight. I think of their tools like a one time use. I bought a transmission jack and a pipe threader from harbor freight and both after I used them weren’t good enough for a second time use. Visor bought a vacuum pump and set of gauges for AC and knobs on the gauges broke and pump got hot and quit pumping the second time I used it. But stuff is cheap enough just buy again when I may need again in 5 or ten years.

[@Digginok]

Yep, one time use tools. Sometimes that’s enough.

[@blackdogEarthworxLLC]

I don't know those engines at all, but is there a chance the problem could be in the valve train/cam/cam followers? Maybe even a gear tooth in the front cover? I'm not familiar with how those engines are built. Just thinking out loud.

[@geesss8675]

What was is your oil pressure?

[@skipwaelty3974]

They're all good till they're ain't I guess . Still partial to IH. Thumbs up on the diagnostics.

[@charlessander5312]

Sounds like A John deere !

[@garyharrington5300]

Hey get a borescope ,pull the precup and inspect the liner at bdc

[@sixtoes2313]

👍

[@chadlevingston8135]

Sounds like maybe a wrist pin bushing coming out or smashed

[@jakkranch3396]

Sorry for your luck Frank

[@TimKincaid-ki2uv]

Your a man of interests on that ,inquiring minds . ????

[@gradyyokeley9930]

If you will get you some old convayor belt it works better than boards

[@charlessander5312]

Herring Bob White as well !

[@bradjenkins932]

When l worked in the coal mines, they would put leather in them.

[@TimKincaid-ki2uv]

Run and load back on trailer

[@briangarland9883]

If I lived closer to you I'd probably take it off your hands. Good farm machine if nothing else.

[@Digginok]

Freight is cheap!

[@TsunauticusIV]

Rebuild her

[@Digginok]

Easy to say, but that can get pretty pricey. I’d love to rebuild it and several other machines. But as an investment, it don’t add up sadly.

[@TsunauticusIV]

@@Digginok might be the kind of project that gets your channel a bunch of new viewers/subscribers. Could be an investment for the channel. But I totally understand. It would be a risk. Might not pay off at all.

[@Digginok]

@@TsunauticusIVyou are exactly right!

[@Digginok]

@TsunauticusIV also I have done a full rebuild of a TD8E engine , torque converter and transmission on my channel. So far those vids have not paid a whole lot. But there is always a chance something will take off and make money on the tube I suppose?

[@bombardier3qtrlbpsi]

Vevor would be better if it said.... Made in the USA

[@Digginok]

It would likely say made in the us with imported parts! 😂

[@michaelhalfman9844]

Given that Jeff has 3 D9's and a D7 none of which are mobile and your D69U is I think getting his approval is not needed.
