Hello, Mr NWE. I had sorta figured that there may have been some previous effort put into getting that lovely old Euclid ready to work 'cos the operator just climbed straight up and sat down on the seat when EVERYTHING all around was covered in snow. And I KNOW that I would not like my 'fundamental orifice' to chilled by sitting on a snow-covered seat AT ALL, never mind for as long as that operator is shown sitting on it. I have operated 82-30s and an 82-40 for brief periods - good machines, well balanced, handle well and push well too. A friend of mine a couple of hours away has FOUR TC12s, one almost a runner, one needing two engines and two needing the age of miracles to return. I hope to get to operate the nearly running one in the not too distant future. Thanks for sharing. Just my 0,.02. You have a wonderful day. Best wishes. Deas Plant.
+Deas Plant Believe it! I have had to pop my posterior down on frosty/snowy/wet seats without cabs a bunch and he's faking a hop-up start. Good old bus motor but I'll take the Kitties. The bus motors make grta power units though.
Hi, td9clyde. Brookstead, Queensland, DowNunda. You can catch glimpse of them from the Gore highway but you can also turn off the highway and drive by them on a side road for a better look. 2 of them are pretty much only frames and tracks and I yain't sure but I don't think any of them are for sale. There is also one in Peter Champion's collection up near Rockhampton, Queensland, and another over in Western Australia. Just my 0.02. You have a wonderful day. Best wishes. Deas Plant.
Thanks for the info! It looks like we are going to buy a 82-40 with a 8V-71 in it. Got sick of Caterpillar selling our D8H 46A and maybe the D8 14A also, So here comes the noise!!! Thanks again
To the two detractors of mine out there in wire & glass land. ( i,e) Mr, McNeeely & Mr,Roberson. FYI the machine was previously warmed up for approx. 15 min. prior to the start of doing this shoot,It would have been quite obtuse of me to keep the public waiting that amount of time to start operating, I do appreciate your concern for MY dozer though!!!!!
You have the ability to turn off comments on videos. Also there is the novel thing where you do something and not record it for the rest of the world to see and then offer you free advice which you may or may not already know.
To all the provincial commenters out there in wire & glass land, If you watch further into the video shoot you will notice that the operator,'s left back upper carrier roller is free wheeling. The machine has worked a few jobs since this shoot 6 yrs ago. Guess what no flat spots on any rollers and the 6-71n is still running strong. So all you detractors were wrong!!!!!!
Your video is in error. The C6 was a popular machine...and, you are right, ahead of time...and yes, it did evolve to the 82-30. However, the 82-30, then the 82-30B, was the second most successful dozer sold through the company. More on that in a moment...The 82-30, so successful, that it spawned into an 82-30B...and then when production stalled in the mid 80s, an 82-30C was in the design phase, with twin front cylinders and an entirely new design...but it never made production. The single most popular Terex dozer, by sales was the 82-40. You may notice, my picture is of a very unique dozer...called a D800...this one came off the line in 1991, and went straight to Wyoming Machinery, the Terex dealer at the time...It spent seven years on an extended rental purchase to a salt mine, and we bought it in 1998. Gone was the single front cylinders, however the memorable rear radiator remained...also, the engine, similar to the 82-50, though slightly bigger, at 105-108k lbs, to compete with the new D8L, which later became the D9N, hence the name D800. The new line nomenclature were to become the D600D(82-20B) the D700(82-30C), the D750(82-40), the 82-50 eliminated, in favor of the D800. Ultimately there was a 82-10, which was designed as a competitor to the D6D/D6E, with a new 6 way blade, but it never made it to production either(though I do have pictures). Have a nice night.
+bearbon2, try listing to that screaming two stroke joke for 12 hours a day 6 days a week and it wears on you, trust me. I wear two hearing aids today because of those damned engines over 30 years. Mike
+Mike Lamothe Yeah, I understand completely. After working close to jet engines for thirty years I have permanent ringing in my ears. Had it so long I don't even notice it anymore until I think about it. I just like the sound of two-stroke diesels but probably wouldn't if I had to listen to them as long as you did.
Great video, thanks for putting it on here. Can you please do one on the scraper next to it and tell us all about that too, maybe get them both working together ?
After the tractor is started, the camera plainly shows tracks in the snow in front of the blade. This suggests that the crawler had been recently moved prior to filming. Running a warm Detroit at @1900 rpm isn't going to hurt it.
+o well As a young guy my dad was pretty excited to be given the 82-30 to work. It was the latest machine and the boss’s son didn’t want to drive it any more. By the end of the 2nd day the novelty wore of and dad was happy to get his TD 20 back a few weeks later. He complained of the same thing although you could reverse the blades in the fan. This was done for him but then he said it was bloody cold with fresh air being sucked past him LOL. Still he preferred that and wore a wind breaker. I don’t like operating a machine without A/C, how things have changed.
GM had the best engineers designing heavy equipment at the time. They learned a lot form Allis Chalmers back in the late 40's, when AC came out with the tourque converter drive, 2stroke GM powered HD19 dozer. The idea for the TC12 came from a hybird HD19 Siamese Twin dozer working on the Garrison Dam project in the late 40's. This dozer here was way ahead of its time. But 2 strokes don't last as long as 4strokes. Higher revs, more wear. CAT won the race. They are the only ones still alive, making machines today, for the World market.
mark robertson Caterpillar is number 1 my friend. Don't get me wrong, I love there old Terex and Euclid machines but there are outdated. The new Detroit's are not near as good as the old ones or cat engines.
soaringtractor Correct!,and Jimmie's wore the connecting rod bearing's evenly because the way they fire,4 strokes will wear the bottom bearing of the con rod much quicker than the top,saw this with our old cat grader
@@dieselman8v923 out dated?? There are only so many ways to move dirt. New machines are more comfortable and full of conveniences, but the computers/elections and all the associated wire and plastic is garbage
Those 671’s could take more abuse than any modern engine could dream of,used to watch rig pigs at minus 30 start them & open up the rack leaving those jimmy’s scream until they warmed up.
Whats this machine like on fuel, How many gallons does it burn an hour? I have a chance to buy one, What is yours or anyones opinion on them that reads this? Thanks in advance
To the Anekcahap down below. The engine sounds like it is turning around 1700-1800rpms. That is normal range for these engines. Detroit 53, 71, 92, etc series engines are two stroke and sound like they are turing much higher rpms than they are. Hints the name SCREAMING JIMMY (Jimmy is a name we use for GM or General Motors)
We had 1 of those at a sand quarry when I was a kid and 1 of the operators was working it hard when one of the front ram hydraulic hoses burst, shooting of the exhaust and hit the operator then the oil caught on fire a toasted him, he was lucky to still be alive, not sure what condition he recovered to though.
I sure hope that bus motor was warmed up because if that was my tractor and he cold-cranked it like he did, after about fifteen seconds he'd be going down the road talking to himself. Detroits are tough but nothing likes to be run wide open when it's cold!
This was a very good video you guys did on this awsome dozer...I really like these old euclid machine's,its great too see this one workin keepin them and there detroit diesel power plants alive thumb's up! does the old girl work daily?
2 stroke detriot.....wasnt mentioned...mine was cable with a super streamlined neat looking set of sheaves hanging off the front, i paid 210 bux for mine..not running
There was also a G.M. 6-110 diesel that was used by Allis-Chalmers in their dozers along with other G.M. diesels.When G.M. bought Euclid Road Machinery this was seen as a threat to AC using their com- petitors engine. This brought about the purchase of the Buda engine which would become A-C diesel.The Detroit Diesel name for the G.M. diesels was coined by the big company at that time International Harvester , which bought many of the engines from G.M. for use in their over the road trucks. Re- member at one time the ' big three' also made big rigs. Ford, Dodge, GMC, KW, Pete, Freightliner, White,etc. It was the same as the A- C situation, using a G.M. in a Ford or Dodge? The name came from where the engines were made, in the city of Detroit, Michigan.
Back in the late 50s and early 60s when so many dams were built in the US and the Interstate system was built these things were ubiquitous. They always seemed like they were trying to self-destruct. Cats reigned for a reason. I think they held up better but these things could move some dirt. As a push dozer they were just really fast.
got one it will push any out the way 3 or 4 foot round trees like it ant there and see that big muffler rotted off found a header and strait piped it for more noise it scars the dirt flat
So cool there’s no need to even do even 30 seconds of engine warm up after a cold soak before wide open throttle- amazing That’s cringe worthy right there
If I was looking for a dozer back in that day I would be interested up until they start it and I hear that 2 stroke, then I'd just go to cat, tell the euclid dealer "well let me think about it, I'll get back to you" *never talk to the euclid dealer again*
Ronald P You would never have the chance to do what you say. I would never work for such an illiterate individual. I can see you haven't mastered the English language. Also read before you post. That might be a good lesson to learn.
6v92 is a beast and is not hard to replace this block.

I like the curve down on the hood remind you of the new tractors

I be looking forward to seeing more of your Detroit 671 videos👍👍👍 god bless
you gotta clean those roller frames everyday the mud lockes up the rollers and you get flat spots on them
Yep definitely flat spotted the rollers
U don’t see many of them around now.Good on u for looking after the old girl.

It gives me goosebumbs! REALLY NICE!!

I remember running 82-30 hot air from the radiator behind you and people knew 10 miles away you are working

I used to operate one of these in the70s pushing Euclid and terex ts14 skyscrapers
The Air Con looks really effective! and got a stuck roller.

I know it's a two stroke but you still got to warm it up a little bit😂

that doesn't sound like what I'm used to hearing, is that a 2 stroke engine, it sounds like a truck with a 6 or 8 v71.

He's lying about when it was started!
Why u said so?
My thoughts exactly ain't never saw a Detroit start like that in the cold. Lol
I'll take it!
