NOTHING LIKE THIS OLD SCHOOL BUS LOVE IT
Thank you
Of course it will! DD engines never die.
You guys got lucky!
Be careful with these old Detroits. The governor will leave the racks at WOT and if it sits for a long time they can get stuck in that position. So when you start it. You have a “ run away”
Sweet bus tho
Counting down the days boys keep up the good work
That is a great looking bus hopefully you'll get it running at tip top shape!
Love the sound of a 2 stroke!
Lot of fun getting running
Go into first hit the solenoid button. Then go straight back into second and that will be your reverse
Insane bus
You guys got lucky.
Always be careful with these Detroits that been sitting for a while. Always check the racks are free, not uncommon for them to get stuck at WOT and then you have a “run away” when you go to start them
Sweet bus tho
That’s a badass bus. GMC strong
Guys that governor needs adjusting
We got it moved. We are going to work on it again in a few months
Pretty daring checking the air filters after the motor starts and not pulling the valve cover to determine if the rack is stuck or not. Daring and lucky so far. You'd have known quickly if rodents had nested or died in the air cleaners and a runaway engine with stuck open injectors would have been immediately apparent. Vintage interior for sure! Hope you know how to double clutch. It's 4 on the column isn't it?
Thank you for the information! We are constantly collecting information about it, and the more we know the better for future purposes. Thank you for your support & information!
Cool but call Bus Grease Monkey if you get in trouble.
Will do, we follow him.
That thing is a beast. Haha
You didn’t tell us how to get it in reverse? On My bus it is a switch on the dash and second Gear! Good work guys.
Looking forward to seeing more from yall!
To put that bus in reverse u need to put it in 1st hit a button on the panal to the left of the driver....pull shift straight down into second ur now in reverse
Same with a 1947.
Hold Reverse button up and put it in Second Gear should be reverse
The Detroit diesel is a workhorse. There is a governor adjustment that Bus Grease Monkey show on UA-cam. That bus is great!
We will check it out, when get back on the bus.
Nice bus you have. I drove a 1948 Greyhound bus double decker cross country. It was a fun bus to drive.
Thank you, we have definitely enjoyed learning new stuff on it!
Greyhound scenic cruiser busses weren't built until 1954.
Wow ... love that old bus. New sub here and you guys are pretty cool
Thank you!
Nice bus
Bus grease monkey would be pround. Great job
Thank you!
Everybody you guys do is awesome I really could use that Ryobi set
You can enter multiple times by commenting on any of our videos.
I love you guys channel.❤😊
Thank you
The reverse is actually worked buy an electric solenoid on the transmission and if I remember rightly you have to push the button and have it in third gear in order to make reverse kick in...try that guys.😊
Thanks, we had to goggle it, to find reverse.
Would you like to know something funny? Your camera looked right at where you would spray in the ether to help start the engine. You didn’t have to pull off the air cover
Lol. We didn’t know anything about this bus, We were learning on the fly.
I would like to have the tools to use for my house repair

I think you guys need bus Grease Monkey on UA-cam
Hey
Is there more to this story on the bus or is that it??
We posted a 2nd video update on the bus, look under live feeds on our channel. I don’t know to link it here in comments.

@@DieselMountain it’s a bit tricky until you figure out how it works. Good job

Thank you

this is silly,next time buy a 2024 model....good bye
It was inherited, had to move it to a new location.
as a truck driver it probally has an non sync tranny so you're gonna have to learn how to double clutch and float gears. its a pain in the ass!
We are definitely going to have to do some more research, stay tuned for more!
