How To Rebuild A 5.9 Cummins 12v Diesel (PART 1) ---- tear down video

[@Saileahgaz]

Just the series I've been waiting for! Lots of content on KZbin covering this and that related to 12V's, but not an in depth start to finish rebuild. My request as you progress is: keep the information coming, try not to skip steps or gloss over explanations as so many do. I get it, you cant go over EVERY detail, but know that I for one really appreciate all the information I can get. I've got the garage, the tools and the ambition... your series will help boost my confidence and tackle my 97 12V that has so much blow-by I feel like I've got 2 exhaust pipes! lol. Subscribed.

[@CUTTERUPROB]

This is what I hoping for. Non is this is hard. Just need the info. Thanks for watching

[@theavglenngineer3577]

[@caymanite_rc_construction]

Thanks for these videos bro. I'm in the process off rebuilding my 97 12v as well. Cam retainer bolts backed out and broke the cam gear and cam retainer. Think kdp had a part to play too because it ain't in its hole lol. Bent my push rods pretty sure that my valves are bent but haven't pulled them out the head. Keep the series going man they are greatly appreciated man

[@CUTTERUPROB]

Ya sucks when that happens. Thanks for watching!

[@2eyedjack433]

Tha ks for taking the time to make all the content you put out, its been great. I have a 12 valve thas going to have to come apart, probably next summer. But this will be a good guide. Thanks again.

[@CUTTERUPROB]

Glad the video’s are helpful

Good job explaining things

[@ronsre-creations5289]

Great info rob. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. It'll come in handy in the not to distant future.

[@CUTTERUPROB]

🙏

[@jocker621021]

Excellent explanation 👌 🎉

[@dirkrowe1614]

Rob, appreciate the minty walkthroughs! With 3200 rpm spring on 60lb springs, are there any further precautions to take aside from better oil as you said? This is for a non i/c 90 5.9 w250. I’m doing a full rebuild with 155 bowls 150hp injectors, BW 362sxe, arp studs, and ve rebuild.

[@CUTTERUPROB]

Oil temp is a big thing to watch.

[@onemanoperation5459]

Hey Rob Quick question regarding the parts washer, what would be the best way to clean the block, head, cam, etc in case you don’t have the big washer available? Thanks man once again for your time and for sharing your knowledge! Best on KZbin, hands down!!!

[@CUTTERUPROB]

thanks for watching. power washer works. diesel and brush works. lot of different

[@jeffjohnson2884]

great video we,put a 6.7 on a 06 runs bad at low idle do we need to swap inlectors that makes no sence to me. thanks for any advice

[@CUTTERUPROB]

if your running the 06 injector it wold run bad , spray angle is wrong

[@tommygreist9560]

Great tutorial videos....How'd the turbo look?I'm just wondering if it had something to do with the damage. I am leaning more towards a fuel issue though.....I'm looking at the whole series now....thanks.

[@CUTTERUPROB]

Turbo from that engine was right full on metal. That injector had a crack in the nozzle

[@ZHPBrent]

Thanks for sharing, great info

[@CUTTERUPROB]

Thanks for watching!

[@graydongrice7699]

Hey Rob, what’s that engine stand your using?

[@CUTTERUPROB]

The yellow one is just a 2000lbs one

[@davewhipple4815]

This one doesn't have that large round cylinder on it for the coolent?

[@CUTTERUPROB]

What we talking about here

[@freddyespinoza8533]

Where exactly are you in Canada ? I'm in BC and would love for you to take a look at my Fummins have a bit of a problem with power. I can't figure it out.

[@petervanguilder6276]

What would be the best/easiest cummins swap for a gmc? I'd like a 6.7 but don't that will be a easy as a p pump 12v

[@CUTTERUPROB]

At this point they’re all pretty easy. Just the commonrail will cost more as there is wiring and programming needed

[@petervanguilder6276]

@@CUTTERUPROB can it be ran on a p pump so I can run black diesel?

[@CUTTERUPROB]

@@petervanguilder6276 yep sure can. But at that point way cheaper to run a 12v

[@petervanguilder6276]

@@CUTTERUPROB no benefits to having the 6.7 converted over?

[@CUTTERUPROB]

@@petervanguilder6276 there is but the extra money unless you really want one doesn’t make sense

[@roofer4kidz913]

Can you tell me what the 2 bolt bracket in the timing cover below the water pump is for? Thanks for sharing these videos! Liked and subscribed! From Connecticut 👍

[@CUTTERUPROB]

The two studs ? If so there for the crank sensor

[@roofer4kidz913]

Yup that’s the bracket on the studs...would a 95 12valve 5speed have that sensor? Thanks!

[@CUTTERUPROB]

@@roofer4kidz913 no problem

[@isaiahbanda7036]

My 6th injector got stuck inside and when pulling only the top half came off. that being said the bottom is left to be stuck inside and will not come up would i have to tear it down the to head or is there a way of getting it out ? 93/5.9

[@CUTTERUPROB]

Pretty hard to get them out when they do that. Likely will have to pull the head off

[@brandonlarson9321]

So what's your preference a 12valve or a 24valve Cummins

[@CUTTERUPROB]

Depends on what your doing

[@kentedgar442]

How much would you charge to rebuild one that threw a bearing?

[@CUTTERUPROB]

Hard to tell you with out having it apart for a inspection

[@warlitolibrando1821]

Sir how to check blowby?

[@CUTTERUPROB]

I will have to do a video

[@dirt-rippers1018]

Nice

Would rather listen to you working with some commentary then that horrible sound you call music

[@CUTTERUPROB]

working on doing some better for the time lapse parts. my editing software is limited.

[@CUTTERUPROB]
