1980 Peterbilt 359 EXHD Caterpillar 3408 - Episode 3 - She only smokes when she drinks

I'm always looking for old classic semi trucks to save and restore. I'm also always looking for trucks or parts Detroit Diesel related. If you have one that needs to be saved or you know of one you can drop me an email at the following address: [e-mail]
Be sure to check out our website ol2stroker.com for truck parts and merch!

Thank you for the hard work and patience you put into these videos for our entertainment. I feel like not a lot of people tell KZbinrs that. I know to some it's a paycheck but if it's like any other job...the pay isn't worth it. So thank you very much bud. Much love from West Virginia 👍✌️🙏🙏

Hey Wayne it's always nice to work on junk........ Especially when it's a SCREAMIN DETROIT

[@kleetus92]

The other reason the fuel tank didn't go boom was it was a diesel fuel tank... it's vapor pressure is way higher than that of gasoline. Unless you get a diesel tank super hot, I personally would even blink at it.

my friend has a really old 87?western star dump truck 3 axle i think one axle was added on.its cool cause its a long nose roof cap has surface rust couple pin holes starting.anyways it was made one year pretty rare i gueuss.he took it off road cause dot was hassling him been sitting awhile but it still runs.it looks like a pete has chrome horns on top pretyy cool old truck.its a 13 speed.i think its life started as a day cab small window in back which tells me it never had a sleeper.

So is that long nose 359 Pete named "Junk"? I've noticed three times now that you every time you worked on that rig, you've stated that you're working on "junk"

[@Ol2Stroker]

Everything I got is junk!!

[@tomkrisel4493]

Was surprised to hear you playing oldies. Thought you are too young to like then. I'm 74 and thought anyone more than 10 years younger doesn't like them. I think I would've cleaned up the tank a little before putting it back on. Maybe sanded the corrosion from the bands off and sprayed carb cleaner on the oily spots. Of course, I don't have the ambition you have.

[@Ol2Stroker]

I just need it to hold fuel and run right now. This truck will come back apart again.

[@regal105]

I always weld a washer to the bolt first. Then A nut to the washer. I find the washer welds to the broken bolt better

[@Ol2Stroker]

I've seen guys do that too, I've never tried that though

[@tommyhall2768]

Hey Wayne good to see you again buddy

[@larrywalker7759]

Regarding the return to tank fuel line configured with a "dip tube"...........the main intention of that is to have the warmed returning fuel re-enter the tank near the fuel pick up tube. Usually both the pick up and the return tubes are inside a baffled sort of enclosure called the "hot box". This helps prevent fuel gelling in the suction lines and primary filter (and waxing of the primary filter media) during cold weather. It does not guarantee gelling and waxing won't occur, but it lessens the chances.

[@billywhite3020]

You going to have a great truck when you are done

[@thestihladdict1743]

Nice music Wayne. 10:44 😂😂😂😂

[@Ol2Stroker]

[@BenSymington]

[@anger806]

recently I've started welding flat washers to snapped bolts to get a lot more heat and metal into the bolt, from there i weld a nut onto the washer which gives a bunch of extra surface area to weld to. great results so far

[@ricksmith4736]

I thought you were wasting your time on that tank, you proved me wrong, but you have some great skills to repair junk..... LOL.... Glad you are on the cat truck..... My favorite of your stable..... Women..... LOL... don't ask me, been divorced 29 years from my first... My dogs have been much better pals..

[@jasonbirch1182]

You didnt memtion that diesel and gasoline are VERY VERY different. Diesel doesn't just constantly offgas flamable vapors like gasoline.

[@hoists1829]

Awesome video

[@donwiley1055]

Good job and a great video keep up the hard work

[@Hard_Right]

i'm sure you already know this but to anyone else , never weld to a tank without making sure it's vented , ya know the old heat/pressure thing

[@Hard_Right]

ok i just made it to the 14:30 mark ... i'll shut up now 😂

As a former h/d truck and forklift tech of 18yrs., minor detail opinions: * apply a skin coat of anaerobic sealer on either side of that sender gasket * never seize on the screw threads to counteract galvanic corrosion

[@DouglasWoodard-n5s]

Is there any reason why the fuel tanks look like they are closer to the back wheels than most other Peterbilts

[@rickgowens184]

Those are called “fat bob” tanks… 150 gallons still but much larger diameter instead of longer and skinnier… also much lower ground clearance

[@rickgowens184]

In 1980, trucks were still dealing with archaic length laws so it’s probably fairly short wheelbase, thus not much room between tanks and front drive axle

[@DouglasWoodard-n5s]

@@rickgowens184what I’m referring to is the distance from the battery box to the tank is huge. The tank is further back than on most trucks with that size tank. That wheelbase is still around 260 inches
