- I had a small punchlist of items to do with the CAT 3306 that we rebuilt with @CostexTractorParts for our 977L track loader and I may have messed up big time...

Instead of changing the head on the other engine you have an easy option to fix it. Run an external oil oil feed to the rocker shaft or pedestal. Drill and tap the shaft or pedestal 1/8" npt and use a #4an fitting. I have built many different engines that have lubrication issues and I figured out ways to get more oil to places.
I have also done internal oil feed lines running through one of the oil drain back holes all the way from the head to a main oil gallery in the bottom end.
Tons of effort to get this thing to where it is, it looks great. Good job brother.
I am delighted that you found the problem and I hope that the engine will run smoothly and perfectly for thousands of hours 🏴👍🏻
There's something uniquely satisfying about working on these classic engines. 💪
Well, she’s getting oil now brother! That’s a win Tyler! Good job brother, thanks for sharing my friend! See ya next time Tyler! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙋🏼✌🏻✌🏻💯💯💯
Awesome build! A lot of attention to detail. We’ve all been there with hiccups, look forward to the install 👍
You know you have OCD when your aligning the belt identifiers 😊
Very nice rebuild.
Years ago I built a custom machine for a certain process and it had an 8 grove pulley to drive it and I aligned all 8 belts the same way.
They weren't aligned later in the video 😂
Right... a mental disability. You really know nothing of what you make light of.
Hello from Moosomin,Saskatchewan,Canada you have great videos and great at communicating. Thanks for sharing. 😊
there is no better build channel on youtube. no, i haven't seen them all, i don't have to. the no fake drama approach, the evidence of homework and research, and the quiet monologue appeal to me as a viewer. thank you for having a really nice channel that appeals to no nonsense men. very best wishes, please take the time to be proud of yourself.
Try to explain, the evidence of homework and research.
Have you watched KT3406E
I love watching the rain and love the smell of rain too! But here in Louisiana it seems like this year it’s just too much rain and I’m going to regret saying this but we need a break from the rain for a while! My yard is like a wet sponge and by the time it starts to dry! The rain starts coming again! 🤦🏼
Great job getting it sorted bud. Sounds great now. Look forward to to seeing it running in the 977.
Congrats on getting this far! Can't wait to see it back in the 977L.
Love that you can have your son, Luke, with you in the garage while you work but I don't believe it's prudent to let him play with any nuts, bolts or washers while your attention is focused on your work. Choke hazards!!
Thanks Sally.
Conngratlations! Job well done. Had to find all the nuances in changing parts and replacing damaged parts. Great troubshooting and checking that everything works. Most folks would have "sent it" but you persevered to make sure all is correct.
Good job figuring it out. You got there in the end, that's what matters.
Great on how you did find what is wrong and fixed it love it mate
I’m sure you will hear from all the experts but it may be a good idea to get your break in oil analyzed. May give you some clues or peace of mind. Thx for the video!
Ngl the title had me worried sick. Glad she’s purring!
Not enough oil for the value train that's for sure in my opinion something still isn't right
Takes very little oil. At one point they were lubricated via wick feed from a manual oil can.
There should be way more oil on the top end than there is.@@I_Am_Your_Problem
You might consider keeping a notebook/work logbook. When you finish for a day, write down what you did, any concerns you may have and what you want to accomplish next.
It's kinda on video most of the time so there's that. A written list would definitely help with getting parts & pieces ordered, which is a semi-permanent 'job' when doing these big rebuild projects, & doing multiple different machines at the same time. 👍🏻👌🏻🛠️🛢️🚧🚜🏗️
✊🏻🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸✊🏻
Well done young man looking forward to it running in the machine 👍👋🇨🇦
Sounds pretty good never really know until after the break in period always good bit of metal on drain plug after first cpl oil changes used to work on those in some cat dozers those are stout engines much rather prefer them to the 3116 or 3208. Great video !
The 3116 and 3208 are definitely on the list of worst cat engines.
If you have metal on the drain you have issues.
Awesome, thank for sharing, 👍👍👍👍
Hi! Thanks for posting a new adventure. Seriously, you may have come up with a new shirt design! Just add oil design (not real oil of course) to enhance the "Diesel" t-shirt. Hey, where can I get the shirt you are wearing? I didn't find it on your Amazon page.
If you go to the 'About' tab on his home page heading, you can get to it from description, on the bottom. Hit the about tab and the listing is on that page under Merch 'store'. Hope this helps. 👍🏻👌🏻🛠️🛢️🚜
Pertty engine, looks nice .
Not sure if you put coolant in straight away, but when we rebuild any engine, the first 500km is always on water only. Coolant is very viscous, and will find any place it can to go. Once first run is good, allow engine to cool, then do coolant.
Nice work. 👍👍
Sorry, but that engine is sick. Either it’s out of time or fuel injection pump is messed up, there special tools to time pump to engine. The turbo doesn’t even spool up! Should have a nice whistle sound . Those engines have a sweet sound when running right. Better get it
checked out before I installing . Was the injection pump rebuilt?, Sumtin wrong
Turbo's don't "spool up" at idle, and especially at below idle.
@@I_Am_Your_Problem I thought he cracked the throttle l was wrong, still isn’t running like it should
There’s some pressure on some holes put o ring washer on them . The motor is not broke it sounds great needs to run on idle for awhile to break it in
Never idle... ever.
It didn't seem to have the pop issue before the rocker tube was changed.
The shaved rocker arm u go to put a load on the engine it could snap.
nice work, now let me come pick it up,I'll give it a good home
Don't get depressed Man, atleast you realized this could be a problem now before the engine is back in the machine, running full bore out in a field in the middle of nowhere before you realize 'hey, theres no oil getting to the top end!', and cause a much bigger problem! Now if that were to happen, it would definitely make me cry cause you know its probably way worse than just changing the rocker shaft at that point! So you saved yourself a much bigger headache, and its still on the floor in you home garage - 'easy' to work on still! I hope you had a good vacation - assuming you were on vacation last week cause we didn't hear from you. I know you deserve it, and I'm sure your family loved having you all to themselves for a change away from the engine & machines in the garage. 😆 Its ok, we had a good 2+hr @kt3406e video to watch last week to help us make it through!😆 Its nice to know in the back of your head that something may not be perfect, especially when it comes to lubrication to the rockershaft\top end, then you actually witness it not working and find\fix the issue causing it so it'll be perfect now! Nice to see you back, hope this thing goes back to work pretty soon too!🤞🏻👌🏻👍🏻🛠️🔧🔩🛢️🚜🦺⚠️🚧🏗️

50:24 The 2 belts lost their 'timing'! 😂😂 You better re-time the alternator belts! 😅😂🤦🏻♂️🤔🛠️
that's why it was running snotty lol.
11:26 After all these years I still do that... Just so I can see them in sync for that single revolution. LOL.
That tube between the turbo and up-pipe spinning??? That will eventually wear away the bores of the turbo and up-pipe…no??
Yep, at 55:08.
They do that until the soot or rust holds them in place. has little piston rings to seal with. Wont hurt a thing.
Yes it will
@@stevevogelman3360 within the first oil change it won’t rotate, will not hurt a thing.
Can't be bothered to post a time stamp... can't be bothered to educate you.
As expensive as parts are, it just has to work. Its how we all started doing this kind of work.
Change the piece of pipe between the turbo and the exhaust up pipe , its spinning and will cause damage if you leave it alone !
Ask the dealer to check the numerical parts record NPR for the part number you are replacing
3306A up to C were great engines
The belts aren’t lined up anymore!
The Cozy Coupe has moved in the garage!!! I have had a few of those in mine!!! Luke starting to claim his territory. Also was that water coming out your impact!?!?!
I really like your videos. I can learn a lot from you. It would be nice if you read my comment
bro, the engine doesn't sound great, is better to solve it before installing in my opinion, is sad but true, something is not working fine
Do you have a part number for the manual your using? Just pulling a spacer plate DI 3304 from a 963 for a full rebuild and a good manual would help.
Hi in one of your videos you had a hand vacuum pump what brand is it and where did you get it from
If the fuel system was not looked at i think it should be. The miss should of cleared up quickly.
I think that first spill was karma for being so cocky about not ever using a funnel!!
Better put oil in it, before you start it , right, I’m in need of a 4 bolt updraft carburetor for my pony motor on the 4 cylinder cat grader , if you find one please give me the coordinates and site, thanks BigAl California
Did you ask Clint @C&C_Equipment, Matt @DieselCreek, Sam @ScrappyIndustries, KT @KT3406E, Quinton @IronKingInc or Josh @AdeptApe or @AreaDieselService if they can point you in the right direction on something like that. Those are all UA-camrs that deal with Cat parts. If they can't get it I'm sure they can help you with the right direction to search to find it. There's a few other ones I can't think of right now either. You probably gonna have to send out some emails to these guys (except ADS & C&C Eq. has phone #'s) to see what they can do. 👌🏻👍🏻
At least you have your new pig mats Tyler, we’re all human and things happen my friend! Just stay positive and move forward brother! Love your channel and videos my friend! 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻
It
All that popping sounds like a valve lash is too tight in one or two cylinders. I would double check the valve lash adjustment.
Then explain the inconsistency...
He knows how to run the over head...
@@I_Am_Your_Problem ???
You want a job,you might be useful over at C&C equipment, lol I’m not sure if they are hiring,but you might ask, they are on UA-cam Clinton owner C&C equipment, the phone number is right in the intro.ok thanks BigAl California
Not being there to tell but you eiter have an injector nozzle, injector pump not hitting rite. And really sounds like an exhaust valve isnt seating.
I am glad you commented this. It is exactly a sticky exhaust valve from the exhaust rocker I cobbled up.
😊😊😊
What are you going to do with this engine?
its for his 977
I stopped watching when the belts went out of alignment
yeah I should've just ended the video
😃😃😃
😆🤚👍👍👍
Do you know what you're doing
I hope this guy isn't considered a professional mechanic!
We all gotta learn somehow….
Guarantee you couldn't keep up.
