Will this $1,500.00 Dozer FINALLY START After doing THIS?!!!!

In this video edited by my dad. He and I go back to the Komatsu dozer that he tells everyone i bought. We do more mechanic work on this will it start than any other before. Was it worth it? Come find out.
Thanks everyone for watching and Remember

Wily You are doing well. I'm a mechanic. This is how its done in a workshop. You clean the block and head and they are ready to go back together. Blow out the head bolt hole with the airline with a rag over the holes so you don't wear whatever is in the head bolt holes. Give the head and block a final wipe down. fit the head gasket the right way round. motors with heavy heads find 2 old head bolts and cut the heads off of them and hacksaw a slot in the top of them. you can use them as guides . It saves destroying a head gasket by dragging the head across the block to line up the head. remove the 2 guide bolts and oil the head bolts and fit them finger tight. Lets say the head bolt torque is 90 tf/lbs. do it in 3 stages. do them all to 30ftlbs. then 60, then 90. Grab a whiteout pen and as you tighten a bolt put a stripe from the centre of the bolt to the front of the bolt facing the front of the motor. This way if you loose track or get disturbed you know where you are in the sequence. Most heads are torqued from the centre out diagonally. That just makes things easy.

[@DontbeWily]

Thanks for sharing this. I did think about the guide bolts. Never knew about oil on the threads. I did go back to the camera. I guess i used it as my white paint. I was concerned about head bolt torque. 90lbs does not seem tight for a head bolt. But i will research and read comments like yours and go back over it if necessary. Thanks for watching

[@lboutdoors8690]

Good job Wiley and Jacob!! That engine sounds good 👍 get that exhaust manifold back on before running it to long . Don't want cold air rushing back in after shut down and warpping valves.

[@DontbeWily]

Will do. Have to find a muffler or patch that one.

[@lboutdoors8690]

I'm in the same situation with my To-20 tractor. Got a good friend trying to weld it back together now. Hopefully it will work. Yall keep up the good work!

@@DontbeWily you always say don’t be wily but I am just like you I love fixing and getting old stuff going again I have no boys but twin girls and one loves wrenching like me

[@Spencer02]

Thanks Wiley for making a part 2 on this dozer, boy those pistons sure did look bad in part 1. I really thought that motor be locked up, you did the right thing takeing head off. Awesome video Wiley 👍 👍👍👍 That dozer sure did start up great Wiley 👍

[@scottc0510]

"thies pustons" lol

[@DontbeWily]

Thank you. I had my doubts as well.

[@LightningFabrication]

Hey Wily and Jacob, The D20A is coming along and it's great that you got it started. Since the head was milled to take a warp out, the valve adjustment might be off a bit. Not knowing how much they shaved off .010, .020, .030 could effect the power. I'd assume they are a bit too tight now. I looked up the valve clearance and got it off of a forum site, not the manual. They were saying the valves should be, Intake .32mm /.0137 Exhaust .05mm / .0196 . Metric / Thousands of an inch. I hope it's not too tight to tight to get the water pump back in since the head is back on.

[@dans_Learning_Curve]

Excellent post!!

[@chuckh.2227]

Nothing like doing a lot of expensive machine work and back breaking labor and then not pre-filling the new oil filter

[@DontbeWily]

Thank for taking the time to do this. I am going to adjust them before restarting

[@DontbeWily]

I hope i will have room to put water pump on. The intake certainly needed to go on with head off.

[@LightningFabrication]

@@chuckh.2227 What the hell is pre-filling the oil filter? I'm Sure Wily doesn't have all day to stand there holding the oil filter. Because as soon as he put the first drop of oil in it he's filling it. Now Chuck, explain to everyone how is Wily going to install the filled oil filter, without all the oil spilling from it?

[@Sherlock067]

Wiley you and Jacob work great together, you dive in don’t complain, and amaze us every time. Looking forward to seeing it do some dirt work soon.

[@DontbeWily]

Thanks 👍

[@user-og9hd2sj8z]

Thanks for another great video Wiley and Jacob. It was interesting and enjoyable. Congratulations to you Wiley and Jacob for redoing the head and associated pieces and getting it running!!!!!!! Yeah!!!!!!!!!! Happy for you that the motor ran after all those years!!!!!’ Great job of getting the head worked on and reassembled. Then getting all the other associated pieces back together. You got it running. Now get all the levers working again and your drive line hooked up again. Then hopefully your hydraulic system will work again. Been sitting a lot of years. Am hoping it will move again and the blade will go up and down again. If do you have success and closer to moving it. Wonderful job Wiley. Jacob learned a lot here on this one too. Will be anxious to see the next video on this one to see how you come out. Thanks for showing us Wiley. Been real interesting. Take care and be safe. The Iowa farm boy. Steve.

Wiley you're so funny you make my day (night) you keep doing things the way you do it and you won't go wrong. Well not all the time 😂 god bless you and Jacob

[@DontbeWily]

Lol. Thanks for watching

[@markpatterson7070]

Hello Wily and Jacob I agree with the last comments about valve adjustment 100% correct. Also another trick is if you buy a couple of long bolts the same thread as the head bolts cut the heads off and screw one in the front of the block one in the back and slide the head on it will be in the correct position for you. Also its a good idea to get a thread tap and clean the threads out in the block then clean your head bolts on the wire wheel. Just a couple of tricks to make your job a bit easier. Cheer from Australia !!!!!

[@DontbeWily]

Thank you for sharing. I did think about the bolts Thanks for watching

[@toddfrymire6265]

Good deal, and working with blood makes it better, great job Wiley and Jacob

[@DontbeWily]

Thanks for watching

[@user-cx5sl2et1b]

Whenever you take a head off and you have a machine shop work on the head and you are waiting for the gasket, make yourself two guide pins so you can drop the head down without worrying about whether it is lined up and the gasket has slipped !

[@DontbeWily]

Thank you for sharing. I actually thought about this

[@billw4746]

I believe the head bolts may be loose. The last torque step looked like turning the bolts 90 degrees not 90 foot pounds. Thank you for another nice video

[@DontbeWily]

I thought that 90 sounded wrong I ran it about as long as i showed in video. I will re torque head bolts Thanks for sharing

[@dans_Learning_Curve]

Good point! I thought I saw 90° on the last torque specs also, but didn't go back to check. 🤔 That torque wrench turned way too easy in my opinion.

Just proves we're never too old to learn! Congratulations on your first head off experience!! I was lucky and learned wrenching on the car in my profile picture.

[@walterwhitaker1395]

Here's a little trick in a pinch to keep oil or other fluids from running down your arm when working underneath eguipment. Wrap a shop rag around you wrist to make a cuff it will direct the fluids to the pan or bucket.

[@DontbeWily]

Thanks for sharing. Is this from experience? Lol

Well you couldn’t ask for better results well done gentleman 👍👋🇨🇦

[@DontbeWily]

[@joejohnson7097]

Coming along great. I'm a retired gas and diesel mechanic, just little advice when you do head bolts. Put a little oil on the treads and washer so you don't get a dry torque with the torque wrench. Thanks for the video

[@DontbeWily]

Thank you sharing that. It really didn’t sound like to me that 90lbs was enough torque. I am going to adjust the valves before restarting. Thank you for watching
