Rebuilding a 1972 CAT 3306 diesel with

Go check out CTP on Instagram and let them know they should hook us up with more parts for this 977 build. Tracks next? - instagram.com/costexctp/ Who is ready for PART TWO??

[@jeffbangkok]

My buddy started drag racing the family Chevy Caprice in 1969 at 14 years old. He built his own engines and after getting a bachelor degree opened a engine shop. I'd stop after work and clean the shop and tear down. He knew everything about engines and was the go to guy for all performance engines. Your son has a bright future.

wow, after many decades of engine building i learned a lot. thank you. i look to the next chapter. you have my full respect. if every man was like you, what a world we would have!

[@carloskawasaki656]

Thank you for sharing, you are a good teacher, your explanation are awesome, i learn a lot 👍👍👍👍

[@nodaklojack]

I love this channel because it is real. I lack expertise in just about everything but it doesn't stop me from trying.

[@dirkduhaime5327]

I haven't seen any new videos. I like watching these.

[@dieseJL]

Yeah we move pretty slow in this heat haha

[@jaygee999]

Tyler, I'll be watching the rest of your project -- Hey, Dad's doing a great job, too !

[@jorgesaavedra9158]

The motor looks great painted! I'm looking forward to the next two chapters.

[@40beretta1]

For me, there is no better season in Michingan than when the colors change and you know it is Hunting season. I know this is 3 months old... keep in mind assembly lube you can go light on

[@williamdodd5113]

Great to see you and you Dad so tolerant of these 977s decline through age and lack of maintenance maybe, but you guys love and other shops generious donations to get these old girls back up and running into the future for others ,the youngins to explore is a great and honourable thing to do, great vids , if it wasn't for people like you guys ,all these beautiful beasts would be gone .

[@dieseJL]

Hopefully soon they are back to their old selves!

[@tdotw77]

Really Cool man, thank you to @CostexTractorParts for sending you all that shiny gold! Wow seeing the Ford tractor in that just-painted condition goes to show how long ago this Cat engine project got started - back in the beginning of fridgid winter! Thankfully, it's now getting to be beautiful summer, sun-shining every day - I love it!🌞 I like the red overspray marking it's territory in the garage there too.😅 Thanks for taking us along Tyler! Can't wait to see it back in its comfy home & the 'will it start' video!🤔 Your son is a lucky boy, gonna be growing up alongside you starting to get greasy & dirty while still in diapers 👍🏻 Keep up the great work man! 👌🏻🛠️🔧🔩⛓️🚜🏗️🛢️

[@tdotw77]

That's a nice @CTP shirt ya got there! 👌🏻

[@dieseJL]

Thanks! yeah this project has been a grind... wait till you see the ditch witch haha

[@pmiller7886]

@kt3046e got a shout out, so cool! Hes the Cat whisperer 😊

[@rayscrafield2106]

It looks like you know what you are doing. I only saw a couple of instances of what I would call "butchery" but you rectified both of them. Nice work and great video.

[@dieseJL]

Always some butchery to go back and repair lol

[@philstreeter9703]

Great video. Kudos to you and your Dad on the build. I'm looking forward to part 2.

[@dieseJL]

Thanks 👍

[@oldmetalmachines2094]

Can't wait for the other videos. Great job. Engine looks sweet

[@dieseJL]

Thanks 👍

[@alserna3439]

You are an inspiration

[@kirk467]

Good to see you Tyler!

[@dirkduhaime5327]

Midland Engine is good I like taking stuff there.

[@dieseJL]

31 years old dad is twice that never heard of them till this engine 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@SamRFixes]

Awesome video editing. Thanks for the sneak peek of the finished engine. It looks amazing

[@dieseJL]

Thanks!

Onward!

Dogs, i luv dogs too, so cutes

[@tennysoncason772]

Nice work.

[@dieseJL]

Thanks!

[@kellyeagle9319]

When putting speedy sleeves on heat them with a deep fryer then they go on by hand

[@dieseJL]

Smart

[@ShainAndrews]

Which negates the retaining compound. You can try an oven. 300F would be max temp. Be quick though. Once it makes contact you have very little time before it gives up its energy to the crank.

[@njh4473]

The channel is growing great video keep the videos coming.

[@dieseJL]

Thanks, will do!

[@giggitygiggitygoofg6069]

You should think about getting a T-shirt printed up saying ""I know it's not the right tool""

[@dieseJL]

Man that’s a great idea

[@steeringwheelholder2483]

The water makes tiny air bubbles and they stick to the sleeve and when they pop they start eating away at the liners and you will actually get oil in the water cause the piston coming up on competition stroke and the small amount of oil that fills the hole gets pushed threw in too the cooling system I had a Detroit 60 18 wheeler do it to me years ago

[@kellyeagle9319]

I am a heavy duty mechanic and any speedy sleave I installed was just Steel that was retained by press fit

[@HamiltonvilleFarm]

Great job!

[@dieseJL]

Thanks Hank!

God bless you 😊😊😊

Just put the pulley to pres the ring and put the flywheel threat it

[@bookworm67-hv7nm]

when you hit 100k subs have a bbq

[@dieseJL]

Who should I invite

[@mattdeckert6150]

You wrecked the rear seal the instant you took it apart and just went down hill from there. You need the cat tool to install both pieces at the same time to a specific depth. Read the book... Also your gonna have fun taking it off... those seal go on DRY

[@dieseJL]

Yeah good to know... I will review the manual and maybe try again. I ended up going with a rubber lip seal, watch the next video and see if you think I got it right or not haha. If not I will get the tool and try again before I throw it in the machine. Thanks!!

[@52Monster]

to late to tell you you messed up the seal sleeve for the rear seal. The seal and sleeve should be installed after the rear cover is on. looking forward to seeing you find it in part 2.

[@dieseJL]

make sure you watch part 2 and see how I ended up doing it. If you think it's still wrong maybe I will take apart and redo.

[@kirk467]

Thanks for sharing Tyler, see ya next time my friend! Louisiana sending prayers and positive vibes to you and your family! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙋🏼✌🏻✌🏻

[@steeringwheelholder2483]

The pits in the sleeves are from running to much water and not all antifreeze

[@sergueiothonucci1638]

😃😃😃

[@hokiedoo]

I just came across your channel just about a week ago love it! What part of Northern Michigan dose your dad live in? My Grandpa had his house in Indian River right on Burt Lake 😊

[@dieseJL]

Kind of like central Saginaw valley. Not as nice as Indian river!

[@hokiedoo]

@@dieseJL me and my dad would stop at Tony's for breakfast every year on our way up north 😀

[@latemcire8387]

I’ve watched a lot of KZbin too so if you ever need any advice from my armchair let me know 😃

[@Rmasters33]

I've heard you shouldn't use an extension with your ratchet. Only use a deep socket.

[@ShainAndrews]

I'm assuming you are making some misplaced torque comment. If so you are wrong.

[@rdallas81]

​@ShainAndrews depends on the situation. If torque is ever a question, always check with torque measuring device. Torque specs are very important and not adhering to OEM specs can result in injury, part failure, improper wear, and destruction.

[@kymw7833]

Hey mate excellent video i really enjoy engine rebuilds ive learned a lot about the finer points of rebuild really looking forward to the next episode Can i ask what your day job is ,is it trade focussed.Cooper looks like an Australian Kelpie or some Kelpie in him,i had one for 13years the best dog very smart😊😊 Do i guess your Dads the voice of reason,for you 😅have Have a great week mate Kym Adelaide

[@dieseJL]

I am a manufacturing engineer. I do a lot of robot work. Cooper is a little bit of that… mostly shepherd lab Rottweiler and boxer. Quite the high strung dog 🤣

[@kymw7833]

@@dieseJL Trust me as i said i had a kelpie its the kelpie in yours that make them very busy they are the best sheep woking dogs

[@dieseJL]

Would you believe me if I told you he was 9? Hahaha. He needs some sheep or animals for a job to do… that is for sure.

[@PaulHigginbothamSr]

I'm thinking the engine with no bearings in the last piston hole might have been ok had you not started it. Like crawling underneath and removing the oil pan and looking at this bearing. One would have had to have been told about this however.

[@rdallas81]

True

[@allenmkent9141]

You don't need locktite on those slip sleaves. That's being too anal. Just heat them up in hot oil and slip them on. They won't migrate during their lifetime.

[@zainudinajaxajax]

Awsome video , im from malaysia, cutes baby urs

[@tomrizzo1554]

5500 hours on that engine is nothing

[@dieseJL]

Agreed. So what happened to it?

[@ShainAndrews]

@@dieseJL Got me. Looks to be sound from where I'm sitting. Odd failure.

[@chuckh.2227]

Why do you complain about messing up a sleeve install when you got all those parts for free I'm sure they were a few $$$$

[@ShainAndrews]

And if he said nothing you'd be calling him out squandering opportunity. We know your type... bitches about every side of the same coin.

[@stan525]

next engine try silicone grease better than soap IMHO does not dryout and has real lube properties also does not cause Oring swelling. superlube makes some or plumber grease .my2cents

[@dieseJL]

I will try!!

[@ShainAndrews]

3M silicone grease. Can usually find it at parts stores. It is my o-ring lubricant, dielectric grease, & brake grease. Hands down the best brake grease I have ever used.
