Renko gets new fuel injectors

In this video we replace the N60 fuel injectors in Renko's Detroit Diesel 471 with N50. We then give this engine as well as the 453 in Mammoot a tune up. This involves setting the valve clearances, the injectors heights and running the rack.

Finally getting that engine dialled in and I can see the attraction. Without a diesel mechanic with the knowledge on these motors you would be stuffed getting anyone else to conquer them. Amazes me these engines may not have the best by modern standards emissions but the ability to rebuild virtually everything and recondition the motor many times saves the planet a lot of CO2 in production of a new one. Proof the American's had there metallurgy dialled in many years ago and something the Chinese will never work out.

Stu, you could install a low pressure spring check valve in the return line. You would not be using the check valve function of the valve only the low pressure spring function to keep the return line primed. Available from stauff in a number of pop off pressures. Figure it’s best to fix it as you may be likely to run the tanks low again at some point. Reach out if you want more information. Cheers, Dan.

@DangarMarine 2 жыл бұрын

It's my understanding that those check valves are only useful in the inlet side as the return line is draining back in the same direction the fuel normally flows therefore the one way valve won't help like the inlet where it drains backwards.

@@DangarMarine nah mate, it goes on the drain side, prevents the inlet side from draining back. Keeping the inlet side full of fuel so the engine will start easily. Look into it if you don't want to take my word for it. Also provides for the proper fuel restriction. Your not pullig air from the inlet side(unless you have loose fittings or are out of fuel), your pulling it from the drain side.

@newjerseybill3521 2 жыл бұрын

@@DangarMarine I believe that is a spring loaded check valve too, so when the engine isn't running the spring will keep it closed so no air can migrate back into the fuel rail.

Well, I've already got the two chickens. Oh, that's not going to work...

Ha! I think there is a joke about a guy stuck on an island with two chickens…

You could try putting a loop in the re-turn line up higher than the rack.

Yes, loop would help but the trouble is the rack is pretty much level with the deck (given the coaming and hatch) so I can't really get higher.

Maybe a day tank? Pump and polish fuel from main to day tank.

Hey Stu if you could run a piece of flexible hose in a loop lower than the bottom of the tank on the return line would that stop the run off of fuel and solve the problem for just a piece of hose and a couple of clamps... hopefully 🤷‍♂️

A loop higher than the top of the cylinder head would definitely help.
