Komatsu WA180 Rod Knock!

[@garbage_man_]

She's in the big scrapyard in the sky now.

@@spankthemonkey3437 It's probably not worth rebuilding the engine on such an old piece of machinery.

[@pibbanon1987]

As you said, That volvo you guys got was the new king of the scrapyard. It seems to have completely overthrown the previous king!

[@MXguy95]

I just hope that Volvo holds together for awhile. This machine here gave me 13 good years! And would have been alot longer if I had known about its other issues. But alas, I cant change the past. But I can move forward.

[@pibbanon1987]

@@MXguy95 Sounds like it had a pretty good run. The Volvo l90d seemed like it had a lot of life left in the video, I have faith it will last. You know far better than me, though.

I had an old ford 300 inline with a rod knock drove it for 2 years before it blew up

[@pibbanon1987]

That's pretty lucky.

Damnit man! I am surprised you didn't pull it up to the shop to work on it. It's no creampuff but Komatsu equipment is usually pretty good.

[@jasonvoorhees6657]

You should put a Detroit in it we had a loader that had a cat in it lasted forever but when it went out we found a 453 Detroit out of a skidder it's been very reliable

[@coreythefam6455]

You can tell it’s rod knock cause when’s it gets warmer it tends to be louder unlike when it’s cold and u can hear the rings gouging the cylinder walls like a screeching sound

[@BeamerTheFox]

i saw over 12.000 hours on that clock, 12.000 long hard hours with like no upkeep.... good machines those komatsu's

[@mjmcomputers]

Crack each injector line open one at a time and see if one of them makes the noise go away. If it does swap that Injector with another cylinder then repeat cracking the lines loose. If the knock stays at the same cylinder then it is a lower end knock. If it moves then it’s a bad injector. With it getting as hot as it did, doesn’t look too promising though.

[@jaredlyons3453]

It's not that bad that knock let's you know its running lol!

It's always a sad day when you're old faithful finally gives up and dies, but she can now rest and be remembered as you pass by and catch her in other videos, for all the good hard work she's done over the years, REST IN PEACE old girl.

[@MXguy95]

Garry Walker 13 years of faithful service. Long summer hours in the hot sun. Cold winter mornings shuffling cars around. Probably a million pounds of engine blocks moved. She’s pushed snow, dirt and rock. Helped spread asphalt for our driveway and dig out a few other stuck machines... this old girl pod her weight in gold for profits.... it’s not the end I hope. I’m going to try and find another engine. Or see if this one is salvageable. Let’s take a moment of silence for her...

[@MrGazzw]

@@MXguy95 Well a good bit of heart surgery or if needed and can be found, a heart transplant for her would do wonders and then she could give you another 13 years of good hard loyal work. Just out of curiosity, it's 16.30 (4.30pm) here in England, what's the time difference there bud.

[@GarageDoorGuy89]

justsomeguytoyou theoretically old age can be a diagnosis. Everything wears out eventually. just because something is properly maintained doesn’t mean that it isn’t going to fail at some point in the future. Even the most well maintained vehicles end up in the junk yard eventually, if the owner chooses not to do an engine rebuild when necessary.
