Fixing the new service truck

[@domenicomonteleone3055]

western truck and tractor repair iam happy that i have found you on KZbin videos you are extremely intelligent diesel mechanic i follow from Canada 🇨🇦 Domenico Monteleone keep up all of your great work you are doing and don't stop keep going on you are showing many people the proper ways to do thing

[@Prariedog]

The new work truck is the heart of your bussiness . Actually your the one who has heart the truck is just a tool . Great videos Appreciate all that you do Thanks Warren Safe travels

[@davehevner8219]

We had an FL70 too ! Great truck. Wish I felt as comfortable as you tearing down an engine like that. It’s great watching you do it . Thanks Warren, another enjoyable video.

[@billreyna1355]

Glad your new service truck is getting all the attention it needs. Having you do it you know it's done right. Keep enjoying your favorite liquids.

[@garygentry583]

I resealed my 12valve on my 95 dodge 3500.. wish I wouldve had this video available when I did it! Lol.. you amaze me every day with your knowledge.. keep up the videos please!

[@garygentry583]

And I did address my killer dowel pin!

[@richardobenshine301]

People dont care and take pride in their work. That's why it's refreshing to see a guy like u taking pride in his work! Thank You

[@davidhoekje7842]

Nice commitment to fixing it right. I cringed when you left the light on in the welding cabinet, thinking of a dead battery. lol The crank pully falling in the coolant was classic. At least it wasn't gear oil.

[@kerrygleeson4409]

Warren when cloning is available we would like 10 of your good self shipped to The Australian bush to replace 100 bush mechanics your a legend buddy thanks for sharing your knowledge 👍👍

[@ApeShift]

It literally never fails. If you have a huge bucket of coolant under a truck, everything you drop has a homing beacon right into that sumbitch. Up to and including a whole harmonic dampener apparently lolol

[@williamdmason9375]

Warren youre a rare person like trying to get tihS from a rocking horse, admire you and your tutorial videos and by the comments your a star all over the world and every upload is a breath of fresh air and look forward too 👍

[@joebarnes6965]

Great job on the work truck Warren I love making my own stuff work and the pleasure of completing the job and knowing I did it right and not some make shift crap I hate jerryrigging it never works and then something else goes wrong and you get screwed with more money out than ya planned 👍👍 bro keep kickin butt and taken names

[@blacksmoke5009]

I’m thinking the previous owner got into it and descided that it was gonna be to involved and costly to repair so they decided it was time to get rid of and update trk! Your gaining on her looking good ! Can’t wait to see her in service! Thanks for sharing bud 👍

[@TimHeagarty]

Oh man, when that pulley fell into the coolant bucket I LOL'd. That's exactly the kind of thing I would do and I'm not a professional mechanic! Good on you Warren!

[@ronhart4166]

Warren don't feel like your the ONLY one !! Has happen to me more than once. My feelings are NOBODY is getting rid of a perfectly running ANYTHING !! At least you caught it 👍

[@stihl0903]

Who would take that all apart and not replace the timing cover. Their is a lot of work to do to get it right but it will be all worth while in the end, when the engine is good it is worth putting time in to it and no better man to do it than you Warren.

[@jabbasan12]

Great video Warren! Thank you Sir for your time and effort putting this together for us.

[@super6954]

Thanks for the interesting video's thats going to make a great truck in the end. Parts on back order is a strong possibility depending on suppliers, as that 12v is getting old now in manufacturers/ stocking parts terms. I have a 1000 series perk apart like this in a 2006 or so 6270 Massey at the moment here in Canada. The bad coolant ate the timing case dumping all the coolant in the oil pan. She's a right mess inside with all the sludge, the loader brackets make it real hard to get the pan off to clean it out to. We went to order parts, yeah back ordered to Europe for 3 weeks. I've had MF tell me hub parts were on back order for 3 months as they were having another batch made in Europe to, luckily that wasn't a feed lot tractor, and it sat most of the winter in the guys shed not used every year!. Ok so this 6270 guys Landini loader tractor needs a clutch we'll fix that instead, as he needs one machine running quick. We go to order the clutch and find there aren't any in North America, It is apparently made from unobtainium from a small family mine in Italy for "f" sake . Luckily Mcormick use the same clutch it was only 2 weeks out!. I'm kinda glad both these tractors sat next to each other in the guys shed, I'd be buggered for shop space here while waiting that long for parts. I'm finding more of this stuff for 2006 and before isn't on the shelf or easy to get unless it's John Deere. I just hate their dealers attitudes round here, and fix mainly other makes. Take care

[@Chris-fl9hk]

Injoyed this hope there is a part two of going back together

[@ajmac5735]

Well Warren, I thank you again for saving me from something else ‘more important ‘. 😂 Was just going to start rebalancing my radiators in the house for winter and your new video popped up. 👏👏 Needless to say I am now preoccupied with something.

[@buffsheeri]

that is quite the daunting repair...wow...congrats on such an undertakeing , your skills are amazing. thanks for sharing. best to you and yours.

[@3347861]

Sorry to hear about the timing cover, Warren. I hate patched together repairs. My pickup has 200K on the clock and has yet to see bailing wire or a zip tie...... You'll get her squared away...

[@billrok]

Awesome work on the new truck. Bill in Illinois.

[@lauesy7364]

Where in Illinois are u from bill?

[@powderriver2424]

I can believe almost anything because of the previous owner. It don’t matter, yes you got some work to do but you got a great deal it’s the right truck for you.

[@ainsleyhenderson4228]

It's all just a bag of bolts hey,Enjoying your enthusiasm .

[@jerremyvinson6310]

Great truck watched the next video and it seems like the truck did well. In the words of Ron Swanson “ don’t half ass two things, whole ass one thing” 😂.

[@G-Man-kc2nm]

Hey buddy, it was good to hear you laugh when you friend was there....Some asshole sitting behind a desk told the mechanic “put her back together”...Just thinking out loud. Most guys would have fixed the dam thing correctly...I’ve bought a lot of used and auction construction equipment. Once I got them straightened out, they worked out great...Thanks for the great video..

[@jimdetchon3613]

They do have a cam gear puller. It works good. I have one somewhere. I would let you use it if I can locate it. There is another simple way to pull the cam if your interested. I'll take a pic of what I used for years.

[@matwalker6336]

I have fixed several things like that with liquid aluminum or JB weld. I would say they just did not dremel it out well enough and clean it well enough. Very much like real welding. If it takes no load and only holds oil I can see very well why they did not do it your way... they just did not pay enough attention to the repair... we both know that is very common.

[@matwalker6336]

Last comment half way through... now done... wow I am stunned you took that thing apart. You knew what you were getting into... I did not. I swear to god dremel. brake clean, JB weld and you could have fixed that right up. Sure as hell would have been good enough. As a general rule I like the fact that you want to fix things right but at some point the diminishing return is just too great. 100 000 miles on a service truck and it is going to wheep.. not leak or drip but some oil is reasonable. I say again. I am glad there is a least on mechanic left out there that fixes things properly. cheers

[@suzylarry1]

it was a good job you knew a good mechanic to fix that timing issue !

[@mikebonge7206]

easy for you to say, with your talent you got one hell of truck

[@markdobson8513]

I can't believe someone would take that all away apart and not fix it right. Any job worth doing is worth doing right the first time. You are probably right they just cobbled it together so sell it.

[@dclfarms6204]

Mark Dobson I buy and fix farm tractors, and you would be amazed at how much time and work people will do to save 2 minutes time and then bitch when it breaks again. I’ve never understood why people don’t just fix it right the first time.

[@markreetz1001]

Agreed. I figure that it was a fleet truck and the company knew they were selling and weren't going to put another dime into it. But I also think that is likely going to be the only engine issue he'll have--I hope anyway. I mean, if you don't see a lot of other cobble jobs on it, it seems that lone issue will be all you have. And I could be all wrong, but Good luck Warren!

[@MIGASHOORAY]

He got it for a good price tho i believe. Good on him.

[@blake1995]

DCL Farms then it takes 2 days to fix their mess

[@JourneymanRandy]

Seems like a nice service truck. You will have that thing running great.

[@chuckychuck]

I would love to have your knowledge.

[@sirich7751]

My thoughts exactly.

[@eddiekilby]

That service truck is going to be tip top shape now.

[@waynep343]

when holding lifters up. make the loop of the zip tie and slide it over the needle nose pliers.. so you can pull the lifter up.. push the ziptie off the pliers and down over the lifter.

[@lla697]

I thought I was the only mechanic that strange, damper pulley into a bucket of antifreeze, things happen to. Life is very entertaining....

[@andrewgallier6452]

great shot in the bucket bud

[@Mrgreendragon3]

great work as always warren , love the new service truck . terry in ireland .

You do a really good Cowboy/Slingblade/Toot-Toot voice.

[@MrPerry61]

what about the stereo? using the fader wire an outside all weather speaker to listen to weather, npr, or farm reports.

[@nzcyclone]

A great video Warren thank you for sharing and giving us all and update on the new truck. Was it just me or was the video not quite as sharp and clear as normally is? maybe was with under the lights

[@chuckpyle1624]

Very nice video and nice job

[@jamesshanks2614]

Heater grid to make starting in cold weather easier usually goes in the air intake where it enters the engine. Not uncommon to see them disconnected.

[@oldodger]

I think I know why they glued it back together now. What a job.....been there when they say....Are you keeping it or selling it ?

[@flightofarrow]

Early Christmas for the fans! Great vid as always

[@nch-wf3tu]

Keystone light. :-) Good old days being remembered...

[@chip2036]

You are amazing!

[@2024bear]

what is the purpose of the pin that came out? After repairs are made can the pin be left out or Loc-Tited in place? They do make a permanent Loc-Tite

[@buckhorncortez]

O&M budget. They had money for salaries but not for parts. You can pay to have someone spend time on temporary fix but you don't have enough money for the parts. I know, it sounds stupid, but they'll have a maximum purchase limit (like $50) before it has to be approved by any number of other people. If it's not approved you can't buy the part - so, you do the next best thing - make up a temporary fix.

[@DavidGrassSr]

Damn , that's a hell of a lot of work, just to replace one little cover.. What a friggin mess..Can't believe you don't twist off some times..

[@henrysosebee9241]

Good 12 v Cummins I have worked on a lot of them & 24v also

[@chenderson4969]

Man, that’s a nice toolbox

[@blake9361]

one man gang get tired watching great vid

[@MarkPalmer1000]

In the late 90's and early 00's we ran a lot of expediter trucks with those 12 valve B 5.9's. The engines were very reliable and could easily run 500k+ miles before needing rebuilds, but timing cover oil leaks were very common- to the point they were annoying. They would be fixed right the first time, only to have to come back and keep fixing them for leaks again and again.

[@125sm3]

Great job there Warren.

[@msnapp169]

I saw that damper drop from a mile away fn hilarious

[@iamrichrocker]

what brand flashlight is that? noticed it in several videos..i am a flashlight junkie and this one looks pretty powerful..thanks

[@archangel729]

have you thought of a light tower to illuminate your whole work area .. big fan of your channel

[@johncone9516]

UK version had a DPA/rotary pump which was an arsehole to get off and the timing cover wouldn't come off unless you took out the camshaft, the camshaft passed through a hole in the cover.

[@ryangletty1219]

on the 8.3 which is same damn thing they crack that front inner cover a lot on tractors and combines you can just heat that cam gear up to slip it off and put it back on. I've done it that way on many of them saves shit ton of time

[@johncone9516]

Warren we used this particular engine here in the UK in our DAF trucks. Here we had a lot of troubles with the head gaskets blowing on the front right corner are they the same in the USA?

[@dh-_1011]

At least you can have a few ‘Stones while ya work on engines at home!

[@davelilley4874]

warren does your new service truck have an 8.3 cummins in it ? great vids keep it up thanks Dave

[@azdodge7]

5.9

[@azdodge7]

I'm not so sure that was a KDP problem. The KDP normaly falls on top of the cam gear that rotates counter clockwise forcing the pin between the case and gear under the fan hub and busting out or crackng there. That crack you got is right at the bolt hole at the edge of the block on the bottom. Looks more like the support bracket bolts being missing was a prior issue and the weight and vibration of the p pump and compressor power steering assembly hanging on that cover busted it over time till they caught it being to late.

[@duanecreativemachine]

AzDodge i agree and I was just trying to type this and well, I don't know what happened. The kdp usually goes to the left and breaks the case right there. I don't think there is enough room to get down where your case is cracked without exiting stage left. I've also seen them broken in that area when someone gets a little to frisky prying on it to get the case off.

[@TimberTramp]

Strip led’s down the side of the boxes inside would be nice so the shelves don’t block the lights

[@ryangletty1219]

those 12 valve front seals always kick my ass don't ever want to go in good I normally end up going thru 2 of them it seems then if you bend that stupid thing at all sliding the cover over the crank get to start all over again lol

[@juliob3]

I've been watching all your videos since I first ran into you're channel. It seems like your anvil on your cordless impact gun is worn out and doesn't hold the sockets . or is it just a habit to always hold on to it? just wondering. I'm sure there is a service kit for it. Any way thank you for all the knowledge you are providing.

[@rickyboyz1006]

Love the "Sling Blade' impression!

[@dh-_1011]

I reckon......

[@johnnyholland8765]

Sorry for all the trouble. At least now you know what you have and after the repair what you will have. Wonder why Cummins didn't do something about that early on. Are you going to give it a "little tune up" or leave it stock?

[@plowkingf15]

Does that truck have a block heater? I got a fld112 refurbished freightliner here on the east coast. It was a California truck that ran Oregon according to the history. It has heated fuel tanks and had to add shutoffs to the radiator lines because I had heated fuel year round.

[@leardi58]

Was it a oversight when looking at this truck you didn't see this before bidding on it

[@tjfaulkner7897]

I also enjoy a few Keystones while I am working on projects.

There’s a long dead spot at the end, mite need to fix it, sorry you had to go this route, but you now can have peace about your engine.

The Compartment lights and any other lights need to be LED. You will not have to worry about your battery as much.

[@jasonmushersee]

imagine if the engine had blowby. i've done the zip tie trick also works as valve spring compressor tool on small engines

[@chuckm5283]

How do you keep up with where the bolts go when putting it back together?

[@micahmalm4263]

Good times awesome video

[@jamesmckay9966]

Warren, Silly question. How do you charge your Electric Tool Batteries?

[@bope1469]

Big job

[@henrysosebee9241]

Have you heard of 24v with a problem with the KDP issue?

[@arjanmehr719]

this may be a silly question but why was not whole engine lifted out and dismantle properly?

[@geesss8675]

i cant belive you have had the truck 4 years... what is the transmission 13sp?

[@backspacecows01]

The weight of the compressor and PS pump cracked the cover. They added the support bracket after the fact.

[@Graveltrucking]

Pull the 12 valve and drop in a 6v53 that should give you lots of power, not sure if the FL cab has enough insulation thou lol

[@logtrukn]

@@oldpete3153 no doubt.

[@Graveltrucking]

@@logtrukn I guess you can't figure out I was joking, I work on and drive trucks all day long, around the forest industry that widely used old 2 strokes. Green grenades had their place back in the 70s and 80s they burn too much fucking fuel, you would go broke running a truck with a Detroit, plus the fact they make more noise than power. One guy I knew he used to have a 5 ton Ford with the 5.9 12 valve truck grossed 35,000lbs 3-4 times a week engine did fine, slow as hell on the hills climbing them in first gear. He always had one engine rebuilt and ready to go he swapped engines every year to 2 years.

[@dirtfireservices]

There are alot of people that just don't care when its not their vehicle. I saw alot of that at a construction company I worked at.

[@brommas1]

Ridiculous that someone would do that and then not repair it correctly after going to all that trouble, mind blown!.

[@kellykonoske91]

Love warchin' Warren, but the hat cam makes me dizzy! Todd the retired trucker.

[@richardmannes1945]

hey warren I'm sure you know this but when you go to put the ink pump back on theres a updated torque spec for the pump gear nut torque. if you use the old spec the timing will slip almost every time just had it happen to me on a pickup. I believe the new spec is 157 but I could be wrong

[@westerntruckandtractorrepa1353]

Ok , I'll check thanks

[@Azlehria]

That kind of drippy, blobby look to the epoxy, I'm wondering if maybe they just pulled the front cover off to clean up the pin and just "repaired" the cover in place. It's the kind of thing I'd have done if I were expecting major work in the near future, but far enough out to not justify moving it up. Make it work for 6-12 months, then do your in-frame or whatever. Save pulling all that shit twice, especially if it really needed to get back on the road *yesterday.* (And given that you got it at auction, there was also likely an element of "It's not gonna be our problem soon".) Obviously from the damage you saw after pulling the cover that's not a great idea, but . . ..

No empty beer cans were harmed in the making of this video.

Hi Warran found out that 12 valve Cummins engine have issue with the dowel pin falling Incase I just ran into one today hope your dowel pin was found and recovered and Iam sure you did hope this helps sir hope

[@BabtaiRTK]

Why does Agriculture 5,9 cummins doesnt have the killer dowel pin at all ? Talking about fastrac engines

[@MrJobforacowboy00]

Keystone is my preferred drink to when I'm in a work/drink mood idk why lol

[@heartland96a]

I have heard of that pin problem a number of times,I dont understand why the mfg Doesn't have a permanent fix for this failure, a way to build the engine so it doesn't commit suicide.Is the reason that they want to drive up engine repair/sales ? Ok I see in the post on 11/23/18 that Cummings had a fix for this problem,is this something they did after some serial number on new units of is it just done when a unit is over hauled or updated before the pin falls out?

[@saeedandalusi7579]

As nuts as it gets 😎👍

[@logicalguy488]

What I do is cross mark the gears right where they are with a permanent marker then I just put it back where it came out.
