Question I’m just starting on these 3500 and 3600 series engines I’ve been a Waukesha guy for years but if your on exhaust stroke why do you losing up both intake and exhaust on your bridge to set the exhaust I see the stroke? I understand valve lab but this is confusing to me . Thanks for the help
Hmmm this is old Caterpillar natural gas 3500 series engine having magneto non EIS engine. Water cooled exhaust manifolds and turbocharger hot housings 🇵🇰☺️🇺🇲😉
ALSO, a very old way of rolling an engine 🤣🤣🤣🤣😅 They do make barring tools and devices. If you make a how to video, make sure to do it the easiest way possible. DONT make people think they have to roll this engine with a pry bar. The tool is like 35$ on amazon. Your welcome
@@CryptoMechanic310 when there is room, I actually prefer rolling the 35s with the pry bar. With plugs out I can spin it around in no time. I do however have power turning tools and prefer to use those if I am gonna be doing it a lot.
@@blackfootmechanical5413 I hear ya. Different folks, different strokes. I prefer to use the ½ inch drive turning tool, or the bolts up turning tool. Much easier to use my long ratchet to bar it over with. But for overhauls, I use the bolt up tool where the starter goes and a pipe threader
Yea you bust out the rollin tool when doin alinment too, if you use dial indicators
you should use the right tool to via engine and document for adjusting valve
