Still can't believe i Won a Year of DRIVEWYZE.. Waivin a Hand 🖐 in Fresno California
It was great meeting you at the show yesterday. Alice thank you for the picture.
Nice Engine Swap!!!!!! Teamwork makes the DREAMWORKS!!!!!😎🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🇺🇸📽📹🎥📸💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰🙌🏾👍🏾
Good beautiful morning y'all
it's always good to have a tall friend 😆 🤣
Clock it and time it, don't forget to grease the muffler bearings 😮
Hey y'all , you should open up a shop. Martin in the dirt , Alice running the show , and then you could hire me as a book keeper. Right on. Thanks for the video
Oh boy.... Martin n Greg will fix it...
Older Detroit are hard to start when they’re out of fuel I had one for over 20 years pull the plug out of the intake squirt ether in it as you’re starting it hold the throttle to the floor works every time
That they are.
Turns out....banging is my favorite thing too! Great video!
Hi Alice and Martin
I'm giving it all she's got captain lol
I hope the starting problem is a minor one. Do any of you DYI guys know what a rolling Gantry is? They`re fairly easy to build, if you can weld, and cheaper than renting telehandlers. Hang a chain fall or air chugger on it and, save money and your back.
Telehandler was free and much faster.
keep pressure in tank they are hard starting after system empty
You guys are moving along with the engine change out. Looking very good.
Did you make sure the fuel pump was pumping? Should just need to remove the davco lid and watch the fuel suck down. If it's pumping I'd double triple check the powers and grounds around the ecm and batteries. Good luck, even though we know you probably already figured it out anyhow.
Eventually I see a shop Comin 🫡💪🏾💪🏾💯🚛🚛💨💨
Isis the computer.
Isn't matching up with that new motor.🤷🏽♂️😎
I hope Martin got his computer out ta check for any codes and the parameters for the Detroit verses Cummins. I know he'll get it running just something simple. Why the new trans.👍🇺🇸
Old one was worn.
wow, can’t wait to hear that thing growl. stay safe .
Good luck guys!👍💪💪
Well heck good luck yall take care be safe
So glad yalls loving it back there hope to run across yall one day i go to prairie du chien wi during the summer lol dont like all that snow in the winter getting to old to mess with it so stay down south a lil more during winter time
Sounds like cam position or crank position sensor is bad. Don’t sound like it knows where the cam is. Had an old 3406E that the cam sensor failed on that was how it cranked roll over no fire. Thought you said they ran it and broke it in. Kinda surprising it should have just fired right off. I’m sure you’ve already got the old girl running by now tho. Good of you Martin to pitch in and get it going. Hopefully it’s something simple. Best of luck to you guys
That’s what I thought, but I was wrong. The injector drivers were dead in ecm. We thought cam or crank sensor (which ever Detroit reads for rpm) because we had no tach signal when got it running on ether.
@@TruckingTogether Good that you got it figured out. Hope she works out. Sounds like it should be a good runner. Best wishes for success
Happy to see another video but wondering about the subject…
could the computer be misreading the firing order, compared to the old engine firing order?
Will it be running today i know the video's a week are so behind. There working their butts off
that 7 micron filter is for a cummins, everything else needs a 25 micron filter or you starve the fuel pump
Whatever he put in there is what he always ran. It’s the only fuel filter for the engine.
@@TruckingTogetherits a glider, the cummins and mx both have engine filters that are the high micron rating, the davco would be 25 for mx and 7 or 10 for cummins, the detroit needs 25 micron on the frame and a filter base sourced and added with the high micron filter between the outlet of the pump and the inlet line of the fuel going to the head, the idiots at fitzgerald are that idiots, people do the same thing to cats and starve them for fuel if its not a cat frame filter it should be a 1212 number all the others are wrong,
Where did he get his motor?
Bad trs or Srs sensor ????
Dang nothing more aggregating then some stupid senser F’ing up the whole project. ✌️
Is the new engine a 12.7L ? I have heard of faulty sensors, bad or improperly programmed ecm, or damaged or missing injector o rings being the culprit.
Bummer...Most engine instals nvr start right up....Very frustrating
So awsummm the talent in that shop, 2nd to none.
Wasn't this engine labled "plug n play" ? Hope to see it running in the next episode !
Well it was, I guess it was a Monday detail that kept it from running.
You may need a new starter after this. God bless you all. 🙏🙏🇺🇲
You are quite the mechanic, man. How much did WI pay to get you to move in over here?
lol. I wish
Truckers of the world.. don't mean to bust your bubble.. but most of them old gliders ain't nothing but trouble 🎉🍻🇺🇸
👍👍👍🇺🇸
This sounds like a VERY cranky video,,,esp at 8:42 and such…
Addendum - and tall friends at 15:15 …I would qualify at 5’-21”!
That sucks.......maybe that "dummins" doesn't like that red paint......none of my biz but did you all know Greg before this or just happen upon him.....🤷🏻♂️
we met him about 2 weeks before the truck went down through a mutual friend
Is the old Fitzgerald takeout engine for sale? If so I’d be interested and me know how I could contact you. Thanks 😊
it went as a core
@@TruckingTogether good morning from washington state ..: whats the horsepower on that new red 60 series? what about fuel pump system or ddec4 box might not match to new engine due to firing order ??? or that ddec 4 box might need to reprogram to match to pete’s system ??? just curious 🤨 i 🤔🤔🤔
thats never fun when they dont just start up
comment
I'm gonna ask the question, I hope everyone doesn't get butthurt.....Martin and Alice both have trucks and no freight is being moved.....what am I missing ??????
we choose not to work right now we just moved across the country and are enjoying family time and our new home. Just because we have trucks doesn’t mean we need to be driving them 24/7
@@TruckingTogetherwhich totally proves that y’all have done things right and been successful because you are able to do that unlike many who can’t even take a unpaid sick day.
🫵🙌🙌🙌🫵
Only thing I can say is that sucks.
Well, at least he can pretend its a Cummins
If it were a Cummins it would have started lol.
Well, that stinks!
That sucks
WHOOOHOO 30 K down the drain. But I am sure Martin will figure it out. What a disappointment
How so? Engine builder set him up and got it fixed easy.
Glad to hear that. Martin is Da man@@TruckingTogether
eat more vegetables
👍👍💪💪🌼🍌
