Detroit Diesel 8v92 Cold Start Idle 1975 Kenworth Dumptruck

Startup with no block heater. I usually keep it plugged in because it’s easier on the starter, battery’s etc...Please comment if you are interested in seeing more content.

Esse barulho desse motor 2 tempos é muito bom.

Obrigada

Beautiful truck. Finally someone who knows how to start a cold Detroit. Crank until it tries to fire. Stop and wait a few seconds to let cylinders warm Up from partial firing. Then try again. That was not hard on the starter, or motor. Would love to hear some videos of it working hard pulling loads.

[@Aboutthatbuslife]

And driving for sure

[@donvalharris9819]

I love that grumble it has when it just starts up almost like it can't decide if it wants to wake up. Awesome

[@toddgittins5692]

1/4 can of starting fluid.

[@nthgth]

How do the cylinders warm up if you're just stopped and waiting?

[@kenworth9999]

@nthgth the cylinder gods rub sticks together creating friction

[@yoda1809]

Gotta admit i really have a soft spot for these old detroits mostly because you never ever see and hear them i my part of the world Keep em trucking

[@shanewatkins5322]

Now that is a real diesel engine. Back when they made stuff to last. Wish we could hear more of these on the road today.

i LOVE THE BLOWER SURGE AT START UP. Nothing beats the sounds of the Ole 2 Stroke diesels

Oh mercy. You said it! I can listen to that alllll day long! Sounds like America firing up

[@EngineEngineer]

It's not blower surge, that only affects Supercharged petrols. This is just the governor hunting, common on all diesels with a large flywheel

[@charlesb4267]

Its hard to find just anybody mechanic wise who knows there stuff on the older two cycle detroit engines due to how long they have been out of production. I wonder if there is any video a mechanic has made on all the tricks to set the valves/injectors/jakes and the rack as I have a 8V92 silver tip which I am sure could use a going over as it can't lift a load like I think it should. Oh and as to the starting of those old two cycles, like another said about waiting after cranking over for a very short period of time. I've seen guys crank and crank and they will not respond to that. I'd say only crank over for 3 to 5 seconds and then wait at least 15 seconds if not longer, try again and repeat as necessary as sometimes in cooler weather it will take two or three goes like that but all with minimal cranking time. It gets that compression heat built up a chance to soak into the metal of the cylinder and head and these detroits really respond to that even better then typical four stroke diesels. I hate to use starting fluid on any engine unless there is no alternative ( obviously the block heater is the go to and plan ahead with it plugged in if at all possible if one is near power )

Are these really practical nowadays? This vs like a 07 series 60 pre emissions truck. Which would be better?

[@kenworth9999]

Definitely not practical nowadays, series 60 would be ideal, or any modern inline 6 4 stroke diesel.

It's a 68 1700 4x4. Came rigged up with single rear wheels and a Chevy 8 foot bed from the 90s. I returned it to the proper duals and am almost done with a custom 8 x 8 flatbed made from 4 x 6 beams. Plan to build a camper on the flatbed and run away from home soon, but we'll have to see how the 7.17 gears do with proper sized tires and the front axle unlocked. I love it, it's my first IH and first real truck.

@@kenworth9999 correct that's why in that real bone chilling cold years and years ago when these things were over the road vehicles they would just run all weekend you didn't shut them off.
