Starting Sisu Truck (Cummins Diesel) After 4 Years + Test Drive

[@Kermakahvee]

Thank you Flexiny and respect to your work. I showed this video to my dad who was a driver of these vehicles on Finnish state company TVL, TVH and last Tieliikelaitos. (road maintenance, changed name many times) company since 1977-2004. He was fired with hundreds other employees when company was pirvatized. So many of these were sworn employees and believed that their promised lifetime position remained. It was very hard time to my dad and the others of group who was fired in this transition. Equipment, even new was sold almost free price and only in foreign countries.

[@bellabella852]

Before he was a mechanic, my father worked at Cummins building engines in the 90's. God hearing that sound is part of my childhood. That N14 runs strong and loud. Old girl's definitely wanting to be put to work again.

To me, Sisu from Finland and Saurer from Switzerland have always been the epitome of fine European heavy duty trucks. Too small to survive alone, but with that certain emotional extra beyond mass production. I would also like to mention Tatra. Thank you for showing this beauty!

[@Volker_GR]

You've hit the nail on the head! For those not that familiar with Finnish identity (the Estonian cousins know, of course), here's a quote from wikipedia: 'Sisu is a Finnish concept described as stoic determination, tenacity of purpose, grit, bravery, resilience, and hardiness and is held by Finns themselves to express their national character. It is generally considered not to have a literal equivalent in English.' So indeed the perfect name for a truck!

I don't know if you lifted the rear axle completely up but if you did, it doesn't have enough oil. It should rise like 20-30 cm from the ground. The lifter motor can overheat and break and it's probably hard to find a new one since the truck is kinda old already.

[@SuperWesty177]

N14 Is such a good sounding engine, interesting that its in a finnish truck must have been a similar deal like with DAF and Foden trucks which had cummins engines too.

[@luoppis4450]

During it's existence Sisu has used diesel engines from a wide range of manufacturers including Valmet, Cummins, Rolls Royce and Caterpillar. They even offered the Caterpillar 18 litre engines during the early 2000's. In this video on the sunvisor there is the manufacturer operating instruction for the "clutch brake", which would suggest this truck also has the famous Eaton Fuller transmission.

@@AC_85 It should rise like 20-30cm off the ground, in the video it is barely off the ground. Got me wondering if there is enough oil, the lifter motor can break if it runs dry for too long.

Has that Sisu originally been a snow plow truck? Probably from Finland? Where I used to live as a kid there was a local depot for those trucks :)

[@piiluja]

I looked at this Sisu background from Estonian Transport Administration site, it is registered as car imported from Finland in 2005 (Original registration was 1995). Last technical inspection was 07.10.2015 with decision: roadworthy with insignificant errors. It does not have valid inspection any more because it was not presented to yearly inspection in 2016. It was snow plow, that you can tell from additional raised front lights and front mount plate.

[@BFB82]

@@piiluja Yes! Makes sense. I think that time it was Tielaitos (before TVL and TVH, nowadays Destia under Finnish Road Administration) who sold the trucks to Estonia because they were end of their service cycle. There is also on the right side of the truck some hydraulic lines and a metal plate on the frame. Those are for side plow. They were able to control the pressure and angle of the plow.

I'm guessing most of them are abandoned because they didn't pass mandatory yearly technical inspection, and needed fixes were too expensive (exceeds the market value of fixed car). The worst is rust in frame and other critical places. Over the years those problems have not disappeared and some new errors have been added. There are some companies selling such old cars to countries where tech inspections do not exist (basically Africa), but has Flexiny related with those that I don't know.

[@robt2151]

@@piiluja Your reasoning is largely correct for passenger cars but with commercial vehicles there is another factor that can be relevant - namely, once the vehicle has earned enough to cover its costs there often tax advantages in replacing it, irrespective of its potential for further work.
