Awesome truck to work on, my dad has over a million miles on his 03 Peterbilt 379, running strong. He only swapped his CAT engine to a 2013 or 14 Cummins due to CA smog laws which is a huge bummer. I miss listening to the old engine brake too.

[@carlossantiago323]

🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍

[@rp1645]

YES big bummer about Ports in LA area. Will not let a truck on Port property unless it's brand new or has a inspection. Very hard on guys buying a used class 8 to just move cantainer from Port to Port, big demand for that as Ships will unload at one LA port, fast turn around, then they steam to sea. The cantainer just needs to be moved to Long Beach. Good jobs for guy starting out with a affordable used truck. But now he must meet these strict emission standers with his truck, just to go on Dock Port Property. Plus there a charge to truckers for Air pollution, that truckers have no control over.

[@RedneckMechanicsYT]

I worked on a Pete 389 had 1.6 million miles. Been through 3 motor rebuilds. Ran like a top, was in fabulous condition

I said, "but...nothing screams like a Detroit.." The word "but" is a claus, an inserted uncertainty. That was a joke, but I still stand by what I joked about, nothing screams like an olde Detroit, discussion closed....

You guys are great, I enjoy your work, it brings my late big brother and mentor back with me, thank you

[@jarmstrong2843]

A good wasp spray is about 1/4-1/2 cup of Dawn dish soap in a gallon of water in a pump up garden sprayer. Or mix up a small batch for use in a hose fed garden sprayer container. Add the soap to the water; not the water to the soap to keep foaming down. This mixture will knock out the wasps just as fast as the chemical spray stuff and is a lot cheaper. You can also add peppermint extract to the mixture to keep wasps from returning to the nest since they do not like the smell. And you don’t even need a Crescent Wrench or Vise Grips to do this!

[@damarcusstalk1600]

That's a nice ole Pete an it sounds good. That was the first truck i learned to drive 379 Extended Hood 425 cat. Man that thing was a Beast

[@jurgenkuhlmann9194]

Heinz Guderian's tactics against American Killer Wasps: a flamethrower! Lol! But seriously, I have a tip for you: what about applying some grease or Kroil to the terminals? That should ease contact a bit, as you need as much power as possible to get old engines turned over!

[@rexstonbull250]

and they are spot on let's see this run .

[@christophersilsby7829]

The short nose, part of the engine is under the Cab(I would call them the "FOOT WARMER") My Dad used a 1967 INT Day Cab, to haul grain, a 4 hour around trip. How he keep his on the gas, I'll never know, because the heat would heat up the foot

I hear ya

[@daltonfrith7685]

You can tell the difference between a long hood and short hood by the front fenders. If it has a filler panel between the cab and fenders like this truck has it's an extended hood. If the fender goes right into the body it's a short hood.

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

👍

[@robertslaven746]

That is a extended hood 379 tell by hood length behind fender short hood even with back of fender love your content

Да,хороший трак, качество видно сразу!!!

[@ceisarsrepair7958]

A Million Miles??? It's just getting comfortable now! Everything knows it's place, it flows and it works good. We'd get them warm to operating temp, a little higher than idle, and sprinkle Comet like a dust cloud over the air intake, about 4 cups, then drizzle 3 quarts of Automatic transmission fluid down the intake keeping the idle up just a hare, not too much to overrun the engine. With all the smoke there wasn't a mosquito for miles😂, but the comet broke loose all the caked oil and grime on the rings while gently honing the cylinder walls, and the ATF goes through and washes it clean as well as removing carbon around the valves and injector tip. Usually wakes them up again. Then a cup of graphite powder in the manual transmissions to wake up the synchros and you've got harmony again, we called it "Fingertip Floating" the gears.

[@joemcmenamy5896]

What is their to dislike about that ,brilliant American quality. Lol 😆 Ian uk 🇬🇧

[@morgansword]

Even guys thats worked on rigs for years have the same complaint.... battery cables are just plain confusing as they got a handful of wires running everywhere and just which one should go just where. Kills more starters cause one post is loose. I find it funny they can make jump packs that are 24 volt but can't just make a 24 volt battery. I had a old 200 amp welder and it set in back of my truck. I would put any battery regardless of voltage in the rig to start. Fire up the welder and hook the welding leads to the cables and hit the starter at same time and it would roll those engines like crazy. Little window dressing and that truck would hit the highway screaming
