How To Set Injector Height On C10 C11 C12 C13 and some C15 Cat Engines.

[@josemera1908]

hi i need the calibration of the motor caterpillar c-13 and the height of the injector thanks

[@alimihi7747]

thanks for this video if you help me how i can get a pdf document how adjust and inspect valve and injector

[@kennethperian4370]

Great job showing and telling, keep up the good work cause I am learning thanks again well see you next time see ya bye.

[@Docoski]

Say, how many cat motors when #1 is on tdc both rockers are tight on the companion cylinder and vis versa? Is this mostly acert c15’s?

[@usmanmechanics2950]

sir i need cat c18 injyctor ajesment

[@pablogrenade4240]

I just traded my sweet obs 7.3 crew cab with munal trans, for a flat top freightliner with c12 in it that has a misfire ... its been very stressful as I need the truck, these videos have helped alot thank you

[@valleyside6030]

@AdeptApe Do you have to pull the jakes off to do the adjustment on a c13 ???

[@Alex0992]

What happens if they forget the injector tool on there?

[@davidspencer1892]

I was wondering if you could add any information on a 3176 and how to install injector cups. Not a lot of information on these motors thanks

[@robertwingate650]

If they are brass like the 3116, there's special tooling for removing and installing them. It's cheaper/faster to simply buy a Cat Reman head that already has them installed vs purchasing tooling to do one head. The brass ones are known to be. PITA sometimes.

[@shortthrow50]

My 2ks c12 cat manual does not mention injector height tool at all. And I have the yellow big injectors. Just says to go to zero lash and then 180 degrees and then that’s it. Can you explain? I have to put my motor back together next week and you saying to use tool is confusing me. What does the tool do? They don’t even make the too For c10 c12 or 13 upon research. Thanks in advance.

[@AdeptApe]

You don't need a special tool. The setting is as you mentioned, zero lash plus 180° additional.

[@jaredg5562]

So what is the purpose of pre loading an injector? Thanks!

[@robertwingate650]

The preload is to keep " lash" out of the valve train and prevent the injector plunger/barrel from hitting the mechanical stop when the injector lobe is on its base circle. If you look closely at the lobe profile for the injector, you can see that it has very agressive ramps on the lobe, any " lash" or looseness would be transmitted to the lobe and roller when the engine is at high speed, and would beat the parts to death over time.

Hello sir i have a little problem with my cat c15 acert twin turbo my engine at idle rocks side to side and the sleeper cab shakes bad while idle and betting 12k rpm and 14k i replace the motor mount thinking it was the engine mounts but that didnt fix it any idea what could it be i mean the truck has power but it feel like and injector is not working right help me out with that man i can send a video of how the engine idle so you can see it moving side to side

[@andrewlechuga4377]

I used this info to adjust a c13 ...I want to donate 13 dollars.. Paypal still the same?

[@garED1678]

Sir how we can adjust the C15?, sorry i have a doubt so need to be turn agian to adjust the injector 6, 5 and 3?. thank you

[@kenanahmad1110]

An engineer, I have a 365 rig that heats up when you're working, if you let the engine work, it just doesn't heat up.

[@automotivetechnologyinorom1160]

Thanks to my brother for this video to sher the skill for any technical activity on the machine.

[@saheradera8432]

what about3176

[@sachinbidwai]

ok, what is the main reson to set injector height, if we not do then what will happen ?pls answer

I have a C13 that one of the #5 cylinder push rods came out and landed safely horizontally along the vertical push rods. I was in a big rush to get truck up and running I am not sure which push rod came out? I put in back in and guessed on the adjustment to see if all would be OK. The engine started and is still running ok as of now. The rod that pop out did not bend and the one adjuster tip on that rod got a little nicked. The driver says all is good until he uses engine brake, the engine brake works, but the check engine light goes on and off when he runs the engine brake. I am about to go in and replace the adjuster and possibly the 5/6 engine brake solenoid pack and (run over-head) adjust all valves and injectors as your videos explains. Why did a push rod pop out? should I replace the engine brake pack for the number 5/6? Parts I got for C13 0LEE09239: 10R-2133 ARM AS Roker, 319-0271 Push Rod- Injector, 10R-6691 Actuator.

[@AdeptApe]

+Rudy Salazar The pushrods don't usually fall out for no reason. The adjustment should be 15 thousands intake and 25 thousands exhaust. The rocker arm is possibly the cause, but my guess would be you have a bad lifter/follower/camshaft that increased the gap the pushrod and that could be the cause of it doing that. Look at that lifter the pushrod sits in very closely, you might want to pull the oil pan and take a look at the cam lobe for that cylinder as well. You may have got lucky and the pushrod may have fallen out, but my guess is you have another problem.

[@jorgecarreno2047]

Car C12: How can the cam follower be taken out without lifting the head?

[@AdeptApe]

You can grab them with a magnet or coat hanger and hold them in the up position, but they can't be removed without removing the cylinder head.

Anyone have manual book c13? Thank u.

Does this technique also apply to the JEP C15 and KRA C15 engines?

[@AdeptApe]

+Joel Lagpacan Those are high horsepower engines for military applications usually. Do they have the four wire pin or two wire?

[@jonathangraber819]

Awesome job, thank you

[@TheRebelOne.]

I enjoy your video's Adept however I have to ask this question. As you work for CAT do they not question the fact that you are giving away mechanical information that could potentially harm their business?

[@AdeptApe]

+0BMM1 I have never had a Cat representative message more or anything to say that. I did have someone comment that they were doing some sort of Caterpillar service information survey and they found my videos helpful. I'm not really giving any top secret info out, just the proper way to do things. I figure that if you own a Cat its nice to have the info out there to perform some of the maintenance yourself if you want to and it makes a better owner, I wouldn't want to own a car that I couldn't at least do maintenance on myself.

[@Jerseytrucker911]

hey man, quick question how reliable are c12 engine and what is the max hp it can e set to.. thanks for the feedback in advance !!

[@AdeptApe]

+Mrvmtm The C12 engine is a reliable and simple engine. Single turbo, pushrods, no emissions items. Now the horsepower can vary greatly based on whether the engine was an RV engine or not. The RV engines with a C12 could be 400+ hp, but a truck version is usually much less. If you know the serial number of the engine you are looking at I can tell you the max horsepower for it.

[@Jerseytrucker911]

thanks for the quick feed back, will get the info. thanks again!!

[@chekelley6861]

What's the purpose of torque striping? Is it to remind yourself that you hit all of them?

[@AdeptApe]

+Che Kelley I usually tell the new the paint locks the bolt/nut in place, but that is just to mess with them. It is really to say "this one is done" so if it's an adjuster then it has been adjusted, if it's a bolt them it had been torqued.

how do you shim the check valve regulator or fuel pressure on an acert C15

does this work on my c15 acert

[@AdeptApe]

+fisnik bojku Nope, I believe you have an MXS so you'll need the height tool, which if you watch the C15 overhead it discusses that.

[@pjwalchshauser1514]

I have a C12 2KS. 365000 miles. What would cause a slight flutter , not necessarily a miss, just between 1300-1500 RPM? No smoke noted. Any input would be appreciated.

Hi. I have been following your tutorials videos a long time ago because of the accuracy and professionalism of their content. But now I am confused about a topic which is the following: I will install the cylinder head on a c15 acert sdp engine and i need to know if I need injector height tool or not. The serial number is sdp104..also the torque specs for the studs of the compression brakes and rocker arms and vva's I really appreciate your information Thank you Merry xmas
