  • In this video edited by my dad. He and I go back to the White Freightliner one last time to see if we could get it to run and move it . this was the most mechanical work we have put in a video. Was it worth the effort?

    Thanks for another great video Wiley and Jacob.
    It was interesting and enjoyable.
    Wow. You got it running. Good thing to remember to check the racks so the engine will not run away. Also good thing to remember you have what you need to shut the engine off if need be. Just need a few more items at you hand in case you need it.
    The old truck runs good. With some TLC it can be fixed up to work again.
    Sounds like the owner has it sold which is good. You got it to the point where it can be loaded and hauled away.
    Nice job Wiley and Jacob. You got it running and moving. Yeah!!!!!!!!
    Nice work.
    Thanks for sharing with us.

    I've not driven big rigs but I've got a soft spot in my heart for Detroit Diesels. When I was a young infantryman, I drove an M113A3 that was powered by a 6V53T Detroit and it got that 18 ton beer can moving down the trail faster than I wanted! Love the channel, Wiley - keep it up!

    Props to him for admitting his error, I think he got too excited, wanting to get it to run and overlooked the safety side of things a little. You could see he realized his error, as his panic begin to grow, though it was not a complete run away, you could tell that the engine was going to go for it, very lucky. But props for owning up to the error.

      @DontbeWily  Před 3 měsíci

      Some people give me a little flack about not using WD 40 and using the hammers. What they don’t realize is i used PB blaster several times and hood latches were still stuck. I did mess up by bringing over to far and not setting it back down. I said all that i guess to say this. If you ever have worked on anything much at all it doesn’t go as perfect as you hope it would. Clutch mechanism for you.

It works wonders and if you got a day or two itll free up a bunch of them problems. Glad that one did not getaway from you i was worried for a moment in the beginnigs.
