best videos on KZbin!!!! and all that shit

[@JUSTINSTURGILLTRUCKING]

Jimmy Neidl thanks dude

[@chessiesystemrailfanman3741]

Lol, and all that shit!!

[@geofflewis4815]

Hello Justin brilliant video, rebuilding the Caterpillar Engine, I am not a Mechanic, I am a Carpenter, but really enjoyed watching you and Jim rebuilding the engine. Well explained. Geoff Lewis, Wales, UK. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@Ahmad-du7kz]

I value the importance of this type and style of hands on with valuable information and details along with the skills shown. Please consider continuing doing even more videos of this class and category. Appreciate your understanding and knowledge. Thank you so very much.

[@blakehughes435]

Excellent work 👍🏼 I used to work on these engines daily at my last job. Removing those rocker assembly's is a pain in the butt.. cat actually make a tool .. part number 124-2946.It's used for lifting the rocker assembly's with one hand and holds all the arms in place. It cost like $300 AUD but I used it daily..Awesome work ! Keep the video coming 👍🏼

[@Runndeep]

You guys did a sweet job, I grinned like the grinch when that beast came alive. Smooth running

[@honda_doc6826]

Great video series. Like how you showed from taking it apart, cleaning, new parts description, final assembly, to start up. Also great commentary on how each of the steps on what you are doing. Looking forward to your next video.

[@JUSTINSTURGILLTRUCKING]

George Vearling thanks

[@ismetmerdzic5550]

Great series, one of the better videos I’ve watched. Simple the best, due to the fact of showing the process from start to finish. Would like to see you do a Detroit 60 series.

[@speeddr2000]

Good job man love this video series ! When i rebuild outboard engines i pull the feed pump fuse and turn it over a few times to build oil pressure. instead of starting with no oil

[@isaaccharles2638]

Great videos brother learning a lot I am a journeyman heavy equipment mechanic with seven years of heavy duty truck and earth moving equipment experience planning to get my cdl and become fully certified thanks God bless

[@knarfseyer]

Nothing like a purring CAT!!!

[@sweetmatthew662]

Love the clacking of a CAT 3406!

[@asapautosolutions]

Thanks for the great videos. Excellent editing skills! I am an automotive tech that had the good fortune to do some line work on a few busses w/Cat and International motors. Also my dad was a truck driver and I did some ride-alongs as a kid. I will always have a place in my heart for the "big rigs". This was very interesting. Thanks for letting us tag along.

[@leonardzielewski7251]

like the speed of the video with the narrative. Good touch

[@petermec8007]

I love this guy, all the cussing calling the engineers bunch of idiots just like I do when I work on cars, I've been an auto mechanic for over 25 years.

[@stacyboots1818]

Peter Mec my dad was an owner operator for 47 years.He hated the engineers too.He often screamed dirty bastardly cocksucking sons of bitches. He's been dead 21 years. Never thought i would miss the old man but i do.

[@ThedailyDriveTn]

seems like Jim is the brains of the operation...

[@jaredharbin5968]

Thank you and KT3406E for your help. You guys have reignited my love for rebuilding old things like new.

[@DGordyy]

Thoroughly enjoyed the series, thanks !

[@PhuLe-jy1kx]

whenever you go to put the rockers on there you could zip tie one set together so they won't roll around everywhere like how you were having trouble with! works great when going back on with any rocket lever shaft

[@albierossouw3809]

A Job well done and very clean working

[@davidyoung6608]

Congrats on finish on the Catapillar.

[@JUSTINSTURGILLTRUCKING]

David Young thanks

[@mark.bradshaw6096]

I think the engineering of the radiator support bracket would be more down to the truck manufacturer more so than CAT as they wouldn’t have had any input into its design 👍

[@sydsyd]

Great rebuild and footage! Excellent work

[@darrelladams1055]

I appreciate all the effort you put into this. Very informative and interesting. I loved every minute of it!

[@jerm33291]

Good job. I like the detail you go into and explain everything. Great vid

[@JUSTINSTURGILLTRUCKING]

JERM C thanks dude

[@JUSTINSTURGILLTRUCKING]

JERM C

[@lmtsmt847]

I'm goin through the ase truck series now I'm digging these videos thanks for sharing

[@MrUltraworld]

Really great video series. I learned a ton and have a new appreciation for this kind of work. Thank You.

[@stacyboots1818]

I like that you put detroit diesel peanutbutter in this cat engine.

[@cwniehaus6487]

i think i would have replaced the turbo as well. u said there was water in the oil, as well as the obvious moisture(steam) in the exhaust stream. who knows what shape the seals are like after being subjected to water. just my thoughts.

[@mcozpda3392]

The best video about diesel engine Cat .. greetings from Mexico ...

[@samrugtiv3839]

Job well done junkie and Jim

[@asmautollc]

Great stuff. Speed seems about right & aligns with commentary well.

[@JUSTINSTURGILLTRUCKING]

Ausmus Marburger thanks dude

[@gordangard994]

MANS WORKING IN TRUE RELIGIONS DEFFO THUMBS UP

[@danielscampton2132]

Hello, I know this video is just a year old on KZbin but the information rebuilding that CAT engine was great ! I work on car engines and their is a big difference between them , all in all great vid Jim and you did a great job! Overalls would be better next time ? LOL

[@ScagSWZU]

For the injector connectors I always use my Snapon cts761 and put the clutch on 3 and I've never had any problems

[@JUSTINSTURGILLTRUCKING]

ScagSWZU that's a good idea

[@pkranz937]

The radiator bracket is a Peterbilt thing. If you look at a KW, the A model ties the rad to the firewall, and the B model to the frame rails.

[@danielhofer7386]

Yes it's a Peterbilt thing can't go to the fire wall because the cab is a uni-bult cab

[@billcarp3523]

Second video of this guy that I've watched. 'And all that shit!' I like this guy.

[@AZ-lv8rp]

I think I need to get into the diesel business instead of cars so I can wear true religion and Jordan’s for work lol

[@parsleyslet]

do more of these. this series was badass

[@grizzlywintergreendeinema7783]

Do more like this I loved it I learned so much thank u

[@vatrucker915]

By far one of the best videos on KZbin love your content‼️‼️‼️ thanks it’s definitely been a major help 🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@darrenmessenger5655]

Great video series interesting to watch 👍🏼

[@mikemayfield7716]

I think after all that engine work I myself would have also replaced the turbo

[@bzbcustoms4520]

this was a great video really clear u spent some time with it I would like to thank u for your hard work on and off camera.you Sean to be vary mechanically capable for all the doubters it's pretty awesome too see ya shut them down

[@charliebowman785]

Guys you are amazing! great video. Thanks for sharing. Sorry, I never saw when you connected fuel lines to injectors (if so); I suppose you did it. Great sound of the engine running. My compliments. Greetings from Mexico.

[@antoniomarqueses6453]

,,00000

[@Gregg0112]

I thought if you had a 3/8 torque wrench which scale was from 5 to 100 ft lbs the most accurate portion would be in the middle and the least accurate the lowest and highest torque settings?

[@joshdemmitt795]

good ol cat in a 379

[@roblgordon]

Cool to see you work buddy! Love these videos, and I am in no way a mechanic of any kind lol.

[@johngoldsmith6629]

Give you a C- on your rebuild. You say brake lash is .028, Jake does not show that spec on any Cat engine. If exhaust set at .030 and brake is at .028 your lash on the exhaust is now incorrect. You must back off brake screw before adjusting valve lash. Among many mistakes I see.

[@christopherkraemer]

John Goldsmith why don’t you just pound sand

[@briansmyla8696]

I know this is an old video, and I just watched the part where you didn't bother to torque the exhaust manifold to spec. I'm curious to know if you experienced broken studs or blown gaskets down the road? Engineers publish torque specs based on their calculations of tensile strength of the bolts, and fatigue from thermal expansion cycles. Their calculations are designed to keep the bolt tension within an acceptable range based on temperature cycling. I'm always watching the battle between the engineers and the owner operators with boots on the ground! :)

[@moparmania86]

I laughed when you talked about how dirty you were and how you hated to get dirty cause it gets your tools dirty hahaha. Damn when I am done working I am usually covered head to toe with shit. Some people can work all day and hardly get shit on them somehow but not me. And as far as getting tools dirty.... That's what they are made for, not for keeping in a showcase... Only in this modern day can mechanics tools be bought just for collectors items Jesus. And I actually purposely wipe oil and grease on a lot of my tools just so they won't rust. I rather have a grimy tool than a Rusty one. I have to work outside and in all weather up north so everything always gets Rusty anyways... Then people wonder why I don't want to buy snap on wrench sets and shit....

[@ronracz9145]

Awesome video Justin 👍

[@mrmedeval4]

Love how he’s complaining about getting his hands dirty he should se what I look like after a long day working on big trucks lol I’m covered

[@kevingib100]

The Snap-On Junkie!!! Killer job on the entire series. Knowing nothing about trucks, I thought this was a great concept to start with and it proved to be a huge success. Look how much sexier everything looks nice and painted, if you hadn't done the rebuild it would have been lipstick on a pig . Now hurry up and get me my stickers :-)

[@nedalhachmi297]

Great video . 👍

[@thebossmancody0025]

Awesome channel man! I really liked these series of videos you guys did an awesome job

[@basstec2004]

HEY, GREAT STUFF , KEEP TRUCKING BUDDY.

[@mikeallensonntag]

This was awesome video, I think only thing bothered me is part you didnt torque to yield that one part and just hammered them in as far as you can go with impact. I think it was rod caps if I remember right. Thats expensive job to take risk like that. Idk just saying. Nice video I really enjoyed it.

[@kevingib100]

How does the heat inside the rocker cover impact the injector wiring? Do they use something different from automotive SXL high temp wire? The motor runs so much better than when it arrived and the shop doesn't fill with smoke in 15 seconds now.

[@JUSTINSTURGILLTRUCKING]

Kevin Gibson you have the the the wires they use on or about the same automotive type wires I didn't see anything special about them and yeah I'm glad it doesn't feel the shop with smoke it does run a lot better I think the customer we will be happy with it

[@harrykanhura4178]

Dude, thanks for making these videos! I really enjoy your work!

[@lukereynolds9907]

Great no bullshit videos man keep it up

[@48estados58]

Great video Justin.👍👍

[@robertanderson-ve1uv]

I was just wondering, why on the start up was the small blue pipe on the turbo bent over double and tied off with a plastic cable tie???

[@snap-onman5088]

awesome video...the engine sounds great man! nice job!

[@JUSTINSTURGILLTRUCKING]

snap-on man thanks dude

[@edwardmartinez199]

Love your work keep it up.

[@HillyBillyWoodworks]

Great video 👍👍

[@jonathoncopeland7492]

How come you didn't paint the covers for timing gears. See you painted the block and head.

[@mdlee52]

My only regret about this video is that you didn't have the thing I bought you when you filmed the video; it would have come in handy. Thumbs way up!

[@scottedwards9962]

I see they zip tied that waste gate closed!!! Haha

[@pentagonlandscaping]

Great video man, love watching these video's appreciate the time you put into it. We're both in the same line of work, got a shop like you, and I always get asked why I have tens of thousands of dollars in tools, but they're looooooong paid for not having to go to a shop. My shop is no where as tidy as yours, once I tidy it up ill throw together a video of all the shit I have, you've inspired me! Keep on keeping on!

[@dslinger7897]

I figured it out after Jim explained it with words and shit. Fuck where's my 1/4 inch driver for this fuckin shit! Absolutely glorious!

[@springer3783]

Love a workshop where smoking is ok

[@briansmyla8696]

lol the rocker arm assemblies are a PITA. We all struggle with those.

[@dk4life100]

*Im a honda tech at the dealer so obv i have no interest in diesel but i like and watch your videos anyway, keep up the good content and tools/ toolbox stuff!!! good shit. and i just realized you are doing this dirty work in some true religions!! must be nice lol*

[@fil1329]

Honda makes great power plants for automotive and some performance stuff too But no match for the diesel and industrial built engines ......look what they are capable off.....over 1000000 miles plus what the pull or push lol

[@kevinrdee9273]

great stuff guys. what litre is this engine 14 litre?.. its a tough job for too tough guys respect!

[@morrishouser2173]

VERY INFORMATIVE. IREALLY ENJOYED IT

[@FloridaNomad]

great vid. Makes me want to rebuild a cat for my self and find a truck to put it in.

[@mofozi571]

Looks pretty!!

[@tam1381]

Nice job Junkie but a magnetic tray would be safer when doing the valve cover.

[@joseacevedo5354]

I wish I had your mechanical skill

[@cflorez562]

haha you mentioned Oregon. I live in Portland.

[@scottpearsontoolsmore185]

nope just makes me look back at my first one I did. I do believe your doing a great job.love the Molly lube it's came a long way.

[@JUSTINSTURGILLTRUCKING]

Scott Pearson yeah I really like that Molly lube stuff it's some badass shit it's sticks really good I like it thanks for watching my video

[@scottpearsontoolsmore185]

I try to watch everything you put up. I have been waiting for this one and watching some of your older videos.

[@JUSTINSTURGILLTRUCKING]

Scott Pearson yeah glad I got this done for you Scott it took me a couple probably about five hours to get it all edited together

[@braveheart4625]

thanks for the great video. Sir can u give me transmission rebuild video?

[@arthurskim7898]

A diesel mechanic by trade (Detroit 53/71 series - Cummings V & VT-903's ) but haven't turned a wrench in 26 years. You make me miss it... I have Snap-On standard and metric but my boxes just sit out in the garage. Looking at your tools :) :) :) Thank you!

[@ianwindley1555]

Excellent as always keep it up

[@rossbaines8199]

getting oil and grease on your hands shows all the work hours that have been put in the project

[@0drdefcon0]

i've always wondered what was in these engines, what does one all together weigh?

[@tallone09]

Close to 7000 pounds

[@sylvestersavage1580]

great video series,

[@1micYT]

Two questions here. How many total hours did this job take you? Also, I thought I needed an overhaul and bought a Interstate Mcbee kit. Are they any good, in your opinion?

[@javierruiz1322]

Excellent work

[@rushcummins8257]

good job

[@stephenstewart9242]

Hey u know that soap called Cascade automatic dish washing soap works great for removing all of that oil residue inside ur cooling system ! “U got a good video goin on”

[@bobbyjackson2061]

I have been watching from the start good videos !

[@RC-Heli835]

What does a build like this cost parts and labor? Awesome vid!

[@robertdavis6708]

Man this was a fun view. You guys ROCK!

[@juanmanuelaraujosimancas5313]

Buen trabajo chicos congratulations !!

[@MrRyanrk12]

did you counter bore since it blew head gasket

[@JUSTINSTURGILLTRUCKING]

Ryan Kennedy yes it's in the teardown video that I showed it there how you doing

[@MechanicTechnicianRepair]

good. trabajo amigo excellent

[@charliebowman785]

What about doing a video on the same but now with an engine on a Kenworth K100 aerodyne? In fact, I really don't know which engine goes with it. You will laugh at me but the only reference I have is my scale model truck from many years now. Keep up this great work.

[@moneymac2864]

nice work...I'm impressed...

[@JUSTINSTURGILLTRUCKING]

Money Mac thank you

[@rajendrakumar8419]

hello jim I am raj from new Zealand I love .enjoyed your detailed engine rebuild , would you care to do a 14 cat engine , trouble shooting , thank you jim
