Don't EVER leave your foot on the clutch while cruising. You'll burn it up faster then anything. If I did that the old timers would slap me into the next county
Shut up jackass. Let him drive how he wants to drive.ID hope the old timers would slap you into the next universe so I dont have to read your dumbass comments
Nonna UdBidness..... Shifting back then was a Lot more "fluid" with the mechanical engines, I had dbl Over 6X4's in my own trucks, with "built" (re: modified) V12's.... wish I had kept each of them before getting my next one (had three) as an Owner Op. I'll take a mechanical engine any day, with "sticks".... over the phony, plastic crap they have these days!!... which is complimentary to the clowns they have behind the wheel, trying to pass themselves off as "truck drivers"..... H- - L, they don't even know the meaning of the word.
The interior in my car still looks brand new and that's because it has hard plastic everywhere. Hard durable plastic will outlast any type of leather or suede etc.
Nice Video, Smooth shifts, Lots of Memories of a Great engine series...... but, hey... that clutch pedal wasn't meant to be a foot rest.... good way to take out the throwout bearing.... but, you already know that.. right? : ) lol Make another video with her under load next time.... lets hear her "talk". : ) Is that a Hill (end dump) your pulling there? Thanks again for the memories.
2Stroke Diesel Power we did have a Hill years ago but this one is a newer smooth sided East,I just rest my foot on the clutch pedal to deactivate the engine brake while im shifting also if you click on my name wayout wille it will bring to other videos i have an one of them i get it into high gear an get her rolling
wayout wille Hello.... thanks for your reply. I actually "saved" your name / video site.... to see whatever else you had posted... but, haven't had a chance to have a look, yet. I have pulled Hills, East's, Fruehauf "tubs" (on the east coast) and numerous others over the years, both framed and frameless (in the western states)... and up to 45 footers (frameless). Have driven several different "Brocks"... one with a 1674 Cat, the others were all Detroit powered, one with a V12. My own three that I had (one at a time) over the years as an OO (Owner Operator - with own authority) were all 12V Detroits..... and no where "near stock", either. : ) They would.. RUN !! Also, had "sticks" behind them... "the Only way to fly" !! : ) You must be located in the "east" somewhere.... with the equipment you have... yes?? Which injectors are you running in that 8V ?? I get a real "kick" out of all these "armchair diesel experts"... who think that just because there is an 8v71 in a video.... it's "automatically" a "318"...... apparently, they have no idea of the fact that the HP numbers were governed by the Type AND Size of the injectors, governor type, rpm settings and timing. The 8V71 was Only a "318"hp engine... IF, it was set up for "automotive" use, with N65cc (Green tag) injectors, std.timing and governed to 2100 rpms..... and of course, those numbers were derived in a test cell, under perfect atmospheric conditions at 85 degrees fahrenheit. If I opened the governor to 2350, that same engine would be in the neighborhood of 330 - 335 hp, with no other "mods". My three 12V's were all between 843 & 900 hp with different setups in each of them.... and THAT, is conservative. I have a personal friend & fellow Owner Operator, with a 1974 KW that was (and is) 12V powered.... and ran it for years in the Pro Semi sled pulls after retiring it off the road.... and I have personally "wrenched" on it.... it is putting out Over 2300 hp.... and were (retired for good now, due to his health) turning it at Over 4,000 rpm under load !!..... the injectors ??....... fuel "faucets"..... 240cc !! (and we could have gone bigger !... with "electronics")..... but the fuel "delivery system" is "home engineered"... secret, and it "works"........ the "boys at DD" said it couldn't be done,... and "live"....... proved them wrong. : )
When I was in diesel engine school the 8V71 318 was the first engine I ever disassembled and put back together again, but I never worked full time on diesel engine equipment. They say the 2 stroke Jimmy's were high maintenance, can you tell me exactly what was labor intensive about operating the Detroit compared to a Cummins or Cat.
@@Agwings1960 Hope your still with us. Cummins Cummapart have problems too just like any engine. Detroit's need blower seals replaced every 100 000 miles or so that's what some guys do, because when they go the whole engine bay will be totally soaked in oil. I worked at a bus company and there was a 6V71 that was drenched and I thought this is ridiculous as much as I like Detroits. They were meant to work hard with one driver and they'll hardly have a problem. I knew of 6-71s in White 9000s in Brisbane Australia that did over a million miles 2 of them were never rebuilt traded in as is. 6x4s hauling triaxle trailers.

I've always loved Brockways. They are fantastic machines.
Foot, off the clutch!
That's only for getting out of the parking spot in the morning.
Man when I was a young man I drove A Brockway put meny a mile on the ol GRIL. Loved that great ol steering wheel
I would have had my left leg broken if the guys saw that my left foot was on the clutch pedal,and that was for starts.
Nothing but the sweet sound of music
Riding that clutch.
Get your foot off the clutch driver
I can’t get enough of this.
Sounds just like a GMC New Look with that blower! Great shifting too!
Sounds exactly like the Mack R 700 I have in my profile picture 318 Detroit 13 speed Roadranger thanks for sharing!
Love the sound of Jakes on a Detriot 2 cycle... great videos!
What's up with all these guys riding the clutch??? Aparantly they never wrestled with a 1000 pound transmission.
Baloney. Take your foot off of that damned clutch pedal and just use the switch when you want the jake. Jeez.
Music to my ears!
That boy can drive! Beautiful shifting sir!
(And of course the truck sounds AWESOME! DD Forever!)

Dam i love the sound of detroit and jakes
have u ever took on project like this here it is 16v92 twin turbo on cabover
dont see much plastic in the cab of that truck those were made for a million miles definately
Just like Mack

@@manitoba-op4jx Lol because they are at the 30 year marks and still working. Modern cars with leather won't last anywhere near as long buddy🤣
Its sounds fantastic
That sound brings back pleasant memories
Dwight Corbett from a garbage truck and mail truck.
They werent so pleasant going across wyoming with a 238 that thought it was a 4-71

Not his first rodeo
Yes I'm in NY in the lower Hudson Valley ,I have N70 injectors in it
