When you fill those filters, plug the center hole and fill from the outside holes. Don't want unfiltered fuel getting to the injector pump. JD filters come with a neat funnel that blocks the center hole and fills the filter from the outside in, thus leaving filtered fuel in the center of the filter.

A suggestion when changing filters of any kind. Use a sharp punch, or chisel to punch a hole in the bottom of the filter to be removed, then loosen it, and let it drain for a minute. Now you can unscrew the empty filter without getting covered in HOT oil. Love the videos.

I used to work at Baltimore Mack Trucks and we had many a road service call. Many times when it was a fuel issue, other than being frozen, it was a shop rag in the fuel tank that would block the flow. Everyone learned to have a flashlight with good batteries and an old wire coat hanger so you could inspect the tank with the cap off. Funny how often this occurs. On another topic, I am very glad you had the dump body supported when raised. At Mack, this was instilled into us. We had a customer, 2 brothers, and one of them was killed when the hydraulic line failed and the dump body basically cut him in half over the frame rail. It was just a quick adjustment he was making and it cost him his life. The truck was maybe 3 years old.

When you do your next oil change, Pierce a hole in the bottom of the oil filter first thing and allow it to drain into a pan. It saves a lot of mess running down your arm. I actually built a special tool out of a round rod and flat bar for punching the hole. Works great.

I operated 2 Hitachi excavators that both starved for fuel because they had plastic screens inside banjo fittings upstream of the fuel filters and in places that were fairly hard to reach. Both plastic screens clogged with debris from the fuel tank like pine needles quite easily, but they had the distinctive characteristic of effecting full throttle operation at first and progressing to lower throttle operation as the clog became total. After cleaning, I moved one of the screens to a location that was easier to reach.

On these machines, you should check/adjust the harmonic modulator valve just in front of the turkey gasket.

Failure to do so will result in uneven turkey gasket pressures and cause premature collapse of the spine valve ring cap...!

I've got a 2001 DT466 with a bad lift pump so I did the add a Schrader valve to a spare fuel cap and pressurize the tank. You only need 5 - 10 psi. Works great. International says NOT to pre-fill the fuel filters. You will have air in-between the filters as well as before and after. The air will compress when trying to prime and lead to major frustration. If you leave the filters empty and then push fuel through all at once with the bleeder open - bang! International does say to pre-fill the oil filters. Keep at it.

I’m a snow plow fleet mechanic and they are low milage. But run hard and usually put away wet and salty and sandy. You might have a small leak in your fuel line causing you to lose your prime too.

Good fix made harder by the weather. At least it wasn't freezing rain! @ 24:00 it looks like you need a bit of balin wire to secure that horn, hanging on the radiator shroud 😁

The visor would look good. I agree that it's a pain chasing a fuel problem. See you put new planks on the bump box. The ol' truck sounds good, brings back a lot of memories. Keep up the good work.

Just for giggles, take the fuel pump you removed from the dump truck and dismantle the inlet and outlet fittings along with the plunger assembly. See if there is a brass screen in there. Most piston pumps have one. Check to see if the screen is plugged. This seems to be a consistent problem as the pumps get older. Carb cleaner works great as a solvent.

When you’re changing oil and you know you have the right filter take a nail or screw driver and punch a hole in the bottom of the filter . That way the out will run out the bottom and you won’t have a mess.

Prefill your filters by pouring fluid in the outer ring of holes. The filtered fluid exits out the center.

Seems likely. Either a little too long between fuel filter changes or some other damage to the filter media, and got just enough grit in the lift pump to stick the check valve.

Clogged fuel filters can wring off the fuel pump shaft. Don't use fuel drain to top off filters, use clean fuel. Check for another bleeder on hp pump. Crack hp lines to bleed.

Looks like I was your last commenter too, just watched this one because I brought home a cornbinder dump truck very similar to yours. Older but so much the same, turboed DT466. Mine has the rotary injector pump instead of the inline. Drove nearly 300 miles at 60mph, never missed a beat. Something to be said for heavy built construction, slow but sure...

I drive a Louisville single axle plow truck with a Frink reverse angle dump box to accommodate the six ton salt spreader. It was so rusty from the continuous salt loads. Everything on that truck rusted. You could never get ahead of the rust. So good on you to only salvage parts and not the sugar creek truck Great virals as always Mike

Love the videos Matt. I am not a diesel guy but am learning alot watching you. Question: Surprised you never filled the oil filters with oil before installing them. You do fill the fuel filters to reduce cranking times, so why not fill the oil filters to reduce run time while the engine runs to fill the filters. While filling the filters, the engine is starving for oil until they are filled. It may only be seconds, but with the higher compression of diesels and the loads imparted to rods, bearings , those seconds are worth trying to save. I always fill the oil filter of my Chevy V-8s. My theory is: New oil, while unfiltered and poured into the oil filter, is better than no oil at all while the engine is cranked and running to build oil pressure.

I had an old F350 that I added a dump bed system. It would die once in awhile. The gas tank was inside the cab behind the seat. Ice would freeze in the tank at night. After driving some it would melt from the heater running in the cab. The water would collect in the sediment bowl & refreeze & plug the fuel line. Crawl under, take the sediment bowl off, shake out the ice & off you go. For awhile at least. Then repeat.
