+Kamil Mastoor I should have the Piston Pack removal one coming out in the next few days as well so stay tuned.

Sorry for so many grammatical errors. Just saw that you replied.

@@AdeptApe Can you reuse the injector hold down bolts?

+Maxx Edwards Thanks for watching. You're an original commenter on this channel too, I guess I'm still doing something right.

@@AdeptApe hi i have a C13 on my 2007 peterbilt 379 short hood truck ran perfect but was restricted at 65 miles an hour from the company i purchased it from so i went to a shop they bumped that up the my RPMS where really high so the suposably got my tire size and diferential and another number multiplied it and came up with 29,000 ish and replaced it for the original 34,000 and something number or there truck rpm got lower and ran good coming out of the shop as soon as i hooked my trailer and i began pulling empty my pyro gauge temp went hot turned the red light on and as soon as i let my foot off the throttle it comes back down PLEASE WHAT can that be the guys at the shop say what they did had nothing to do with the pyro temp PLEASE PLEASE HELP.

+jeeptech75 Thanks for watching 'em.

how many years with Cat now?

+jeeptech75 12 this year. Dang, I'd be more than half way to retirement in the military, but there is no way out of Cat, it is a life sentence lol.

+CAT DIESEL POWER Thanks for watching.

Adept Ape dam rite pard I love your vids! BTW question for ya in your opinion is it still ok to dump a quart of ATF IN the fuel tank every 4th fill up is how I do it and I know for fact in my history it has helped alot in older cat engines but I'm wondering about this new EPA Crap engines if it will hurt them to do it? thanks

+jimgam730 what are you doing for work now, if you don't mind me asking?

working in the cable tv industry as a service tech and it sucks. not sure why I stuck with it so long but I have. thinking now i'm too old to get back into it, almost 60

+The Snap-On Junkie!!! The C13 gets a little complicated on the overhead adjustment, but timing it and everything is easy. We have a young guy at work and he couldn't believe you don't even have to time them during a rebuild.

Adept Ape ha ha that's funny

+Ricky Gonzalez.O good luck, it can be a really fun job with the right shop and boss.

Hello.

+heavy chevy This one is quoted at 66 hours I believe. It's a Platinum kit so we are doing more than just a standard inframe. Oil pump, water pump, oil cooler, and addition seals and inspection.

Yea platinum is way to go with head being junk and gets you the injectors too.i had a c7 like a week ago come in on hook for no start, I dead headed the transfer pump and found no fuel pressure. ..so pulled huei pump and the gear was held on by 1 thread....just curious if it's a real common thing ? thanks ,don't mean to be a bother

+heavy chevy I like answering questions, kinda the point of the channel. Yes that is a common problem I'd say maybe 1-2 out of 10 HEUI pump failures is the drive nut getting loose.

If your going to strip it down that far and have the funds to do the rebuild then do it. Your only going to regret it down the line if you don't and then have an engine fail at sea. The 450HP marine engines are pretty "hard worked" engines as they have upped the HP quite a bit in comparison to the road versions which are usually rated between 190-300 IIRC. The extra HP is because the marine engines are designed to give more power and stability up on the plane at consistant high RPM where the road versions are designed for low down torque. You need the HP in the marine version as its the RPM's that matter not the torque. Actual parts wise they aren't much different. If you have done rebuilds before then go for it yourself and do the rebuild. You will save a tonne of money and learn about the engine along the way so your more capable at handling issues in the water. At the end of the day you have 2 engines so you aren't relying on one completely.

want to know if its safe to do and what to know about it

+Christian Russo I have a boost video that discusses it, but don't have one that I can remember that talks about disconnecting it. Depending on the engine you have it can cause the engine to have a check engine light and derate if you plug it. The wastegate on most of the Cats doesn't really limit the boost by very much though, perhaps a few psi and if you have an older Cat like a 3406E, the extra couple psi won't hurt it most likely. Just do it at your own risk.

its a mbn motor having a low boost problem, looks like the turbo compressor was changed within the last few months but not sure

+Christian Russo I would pinch the wastegate off and see if it makes a difference, if it doesn't then you have most likely a CAC leak, exhaust leak, plugged muffler, or something else going on with it.

thank you, ill try to pinch the line tomorrow and send you a update

+Andy Nguyen Other than Car rerates, no we don't.

+Adept Ape Cat not Car.

+Johnathen Thompson This sounds like a press conference, ummmm no comment. No I guess the IRS raided some building in Peoria where Cat headquarters is and the reason I'm not sure. Cat has been shrinking slowly since the housing crisis so maybe something was going on with their numbers, but I don't have any idea. I wear a work shirt so they don't tell me anything.

Sorry didn't mean to make it sound like a press conference lol but I really want to work with cat in the future I'm about to graduate from UTI and just wanted to know if it's something I should worry about

+Trucker Chris I should have moved the video background sound lower and you could have heard me better. Just think of it as trying to talk in a shop, air tools ruin it.

+jesus torres AdeptApe@yahoo.com on PayPal sir.

+Dan Dosreis Figured I could go by my first name finally, since people ask a lot what they should call me.
