In my second year of studying right now as a diesel mechanic. Watching this to prepare for a lab and the slow pacing and little explanations along the way is super appreciated. Having notes for references and marking equipment as I move along is something very valuable in the long run when it becomes a habit because it makes you thorough, consistent, and reliable. Awesome stuff, the walk through means a lot.

Pro Tip from a Cummins tech: did your hear how he said its a feel thing?? well that is correct to a certain point, let me explain. Did you see how when he would run adjusting screw down then "feel" for slight drag then tighten the nut? If you want the "perfect" feel every time do this: Insert your feeler gauge as he did turn the adjusting screw down just until you have resistance hold it in place and then tighten your jam nut down. The slight tension the tightening of the jam nut against the adjustment screw will create that "perfect" drag every time.

Here's what I taught myself at 2 in the morning and the truck is to be rolling out around 7. New cylinder head installed, ran the overhead and missed my overlap. Doesn't take but a few degrees guys. As soon as that intake roller starts to move with your finger on it, stop. If your intakes are too tight or lose determines where the roller is on the cam lobe ramp. I always roll my intakes to the bottom of the lobe and set those intakes then roll it up to where the roller starts to move. Doesn't take but ten minutes longer. But so what.

Don’t forget after your adjustment to double check your injector height. Sometimes the stretch throws off the reading. Same with the valve lash.

Cheers from Down Under. Great video. Love watching this sort of stuff. Was a diesel mechanic years ago but now I just enjoy tinkering. Miss is a lot but watching you work on this kind of job reminds me of the sore back and the hyper-extended knees. Those screws that hold the Jake wires. Take them out and throw them to the schissenhausen then replace them with allen head screws. I hate flat bladed screws at the best of times but when they are tight like they were for you then they easily burr over resulting in a lot of swearing and added time to the job. Keep up the good work.

You run the inj height tool different than me for sure. I put my finger on top and rock the tool in and out watching the bottom of the tool. If the post moves in the inj hole too high, if the flag moves on top, too low. Right in between, lock er down. Also you don't need short rocker shaft bolts, just use the jake spacers on top of the rocker shaft. Also once a year you are suppose to remove the inj harness at the ecm, inspect for oil. If oil found replace the inj harness and if you have the million dollar fitting, vac test the ecm. Must hold 6" of vacuum for 15 minutes. I worked in a fleet that had 11000 s60's. Take care, wear gloves, that crap is highly carcinogenic.

When adjusting the J valve for the Jake's loosen the lock nut and turn in the J valve in about a half a turn to bleed it. Then set your lash adjustment. This pushes the oil out so you don't get a false reading.

I agree it was bad nasty in there. Sad thing is the oil was only changed 2-3 weeks before we ran that overhead. He does run that truck hard but I think the problem has been he had been using speedco for his service work or loves etc instead of sticking to one place and one type of oil. I also believe there’s something else going on in that engine it has a good bit of front end noise to it.

I love the Detroit 60 series they are great. Our entire fleet is all Paccar Mx engines all but 1 Detroit (60 series) 1 Cummins Isx and 1 Cummins M11 I am not a Cummins fan at all. They are strong but won’t last (look in the truck paper at how many are for sale at 500-700k and you will see “recent inframe” My favorite engine is the Paccar MX13 EPA10 engine. When they are deleted they never come back in the shop for anything other than ac work, regular maintenance, belt tensioner or air leak on the fuel cutoff (I did a video on common issues with Paccar engines that shows everything you will see with them). Once those epa10 trucks are deleted they are really reliable and an amazing engine

You can get them through NAPA or amazon or a Detroit Dealer. Just ask for an injector height tool

A buddy of mine put a ported, ceramic coated manifold and one size larger Borg Warner turbo on his. He said it is like driving a different truck. Much better response and he gained .6 MPG witch is alot of money in the long haul. He has run it for 3 years with no problems

That overhead was very sludgey I know the 60 series oil get pretty nasty but that’s about the worst I’ve seen

Alex Corvi it was extremely bad I agree. It’s not that he don’t keep it serviced either he is a good customer. I know he runs it extremely hard because that oil was only about 2-3 weeks old. There’s something going on inside that engine I’m afraid

Koon Trucking time to do an oil analysis on the old girl. Don’t take a lot of coolant to cause sludge under the valve cover.

@@KoonTrucking quick question if you stick a bore scope camera in there by 6 injector and a light would you be able to see that hole that your injector height tool goes in so that you could just look at the screen on the camera and stick the tool in there or is that not possible? I'm just thinking of ways you wouldn't have to crawl underneath the cab to see in there.

Brad z most dealers charge about 4 hours on this engine depending on what chassis it is in. Some dealers run specials at a flat charge, example Detroit 60 series overhead special $399 plus tax.

Deisel injectors are actually plunger pumps operated by a cam lobe. Some manufacturers call them " unit pumps" one in each cylinder.they fill with fuel from a fuel rail in the cylinder head.
