@@DGHD Reminds me of my mate who works for Sims metal, in Australia 🇦🇺, I always used go around the scrap yard, have a look at all the goodies, love your work mate 🍻 Canadians are great bunch.
It’s so cool seeing a UA-camr of your status spend the time answering comments on videos like these! Really makes us who follow along much more connected and appreciated!
I enjoy it and learn from the comments too. Someone mentioned an adjustment that I had no idea about under the pump to speed it up as the diesel runs at a lower rpm than the gas. You guys are just as awesome
Here I am trying to get my motorbike running right, here is DeBoss - "Imma fit this engine which wasn't designed for this machine and fire it right up". This is so satisfying.
Our old JLG boomlift had a feature, or quirk, when you stop the machine from either the top basket or below , you have to always push the stop button a second time to enable you to be able to start it at either station. If you stop it from the basket and just wanted to start it again from the basket, you don't have to push the stop button a second time but we all got in the habit of always pressing it twice when stopping.
Tapping with a drill is definitely a nice quick way to do it, put the tap in the chuck very lightly then if you bottom the tap out or the tap picks up it spins in the chuck instead of snapping the tap, learnt that the hard way
That sensor at 22:25 is temp for cold mode for the pump. I work for CAT in the US as an electic power generation and marine tech and we have a customer with a lot of those older perkins in our territory. They are great, high hour engines. If you ever have any questions about any CAT or part numbers, send a dm.
I learned how to use a lathe in school as well as other cool workshop equipment yet no one ever told me that the hook on a tape measure is supposed to slide.
The switch on the timing cover behind the injection pump is a timing advance switch. When the engine is cold it advances the internal pump timing to heat the engine up quicker.
I’m in a hardware store and I watched a twenty something dude tell a teen something dude... “all these tape measures are junk, every single one has loose ends”. I face palmed and kept movin.
That is one of the preeminent dad teaching moments. Even a moron can show the kid this, and earn some solid "respect the dad" points. So, come on dads, this is your time.
I haven't finished the video yet but if you need a solenoid for rpm control I'm sure the local scrap yard has some Thermo King or Carrier reefers or truck APUs. They use a simple 2 wire solenoid hooked to the throttle lever.
*cross threaded bolts is just free Loctite* 28:03 Definitely needs to be put on a t-shirt. Some really tall tires, with a long snorkel = ultimate underwater diesel adventure vehicle? Boom up, still driving across the pond!
Was about to make a crack at saying “this man has violated every warranty possible”, remembering that upright going out of business probably violated all warranties needless LMAO
@@DGHD I have leaned so much in the short time I have been watching you. Thank you. Here soon I will be starting an engine swap in a 1981 Cadillac 4.1 v6 putting a 5.9 Cummins. Want to make it 4x4 also.
‘Cam sensor’ is a temp switch for cold start timing advance , just connect ign live to one side and the other to bottom terminal on inj pump. TBH it will probably start fine without it
Loved the way you demonstrated the process- figure out what you have, what you don't need and don't have, subtract some things, add to make up shorts and vroom! Awesome, and it is already a better machine- it didn't even run when you rolled up on it! FR
Always enjoy your all your videos! As a self employed arborist with older equipment videos like this are very helpful! Yes your correct in saying that clutch is on like a wood chipper. I’m assuming it was a Rockford clutch set up? Or something close to it?
Lol. The little 3 cylinder diesel in my sailboat is a 'Volvo' but 'Perkins' is irrevocably cast into the block. Perkins is everywhere! World domination.
And i thought you gave up on the Boom Lift, nice surprise... Cat was the solution... who would of thought , rip all that fewy electronics out go conventional...
I have that same pto on the front of a 3304 in my commercial fishing boat. It powers my deck hose, hydraulics, and used to turn a compressor for a refrigeration system in the fish hold.
It was the original video of the boom lift you drove by every day and wondered what is it doing in her yard which caught my attention and caused me to start watching your channel and sub to it. So the drama is good and enjoyable.
A vac trailer I worked on had that same clutch setup. It more intended to be on or off. It basically will cam over to where it locks on. With the trailer it had an air cylinder so you could switch the pump on and off with the remote. Although they seem to mostly leave it on.
So much of that old UpRight was just industrial LEGO, the company that does spares for that is now owned by Ahern, ePartsPlus. They have most of the manuals on their website. My boss has been doing parts for those since he was a teenager, and now we're a Cat rental store. I'm sure he'd love a challenge!
That green/ yellow plastic cap on the pump, underneath that there is adjustment. We use it to slow down and speed up the travel speed of our forklifts, maybe trying to adjust that outwards will speed up the pump, we normally screw it clockwise looking up from floor to slow the forklifts down to 10mph
@@DGHD no problem. I think if you screw the grub screw in it slows the speed down so screwing the Alan head outwards must speed it up. Iv had the screw pretty close into the lock nut to get 10mph so they are more than capable
Great editing, its nice to see those breaks in the progress line and it tells what segment that you are fixing or explaining what where when.... as the whole thing come together I really wasn't thinking about how important that wiring is to the remote controls as its hard to reach buttons on the ground when in lift. All and all just a real good video
Its usually not that messy but scrap went up and a lot of people have nothing to do during lock down so they are cleaning up. I think a decent forklift came in too
I used to work for a Case Ih assembly plant and we were trained to chase all the weld nuts with a drill and tap to get the paint and powder coating out of the holes. Nobody did it by hand.
The best is when being a good employee gets you stranded up there in the winter. The diesel is too cold to crank over and the batteries are too frozen to have enough juice to get you down... -30c or even a bit warmer just leave it on unless you're moving lots.
Those bolts holding on the hydraulic pump need a proper washer. Is there air in the hydraulic system? Very cool project. I am glad you are still making it fully running machine. Great problem solving.
I really enjoyed your positive attitude and never saying it can't be done. You remind me of a combination of MacGyver and Humphrey Bogart in the African queen. Great videos! Thanks for posting.
I loved the sound effects when you were chasing the treads 🤣🤣 I would agree that people don't like it because they have been chasing threads by hand for years and never had the guts to jam the tap into a drill and give it a whirl!
Just put a time delay relais on the starter switch which releases like 1 minute after you stops cranking. The murphy switch would be overridden by it for this amount of time.
SAE tried to give standards for bell housing but as usual Gary effed it up :) That said there are so many variables with bolt- holes, offstes, starter locations and so on...
There are some things in this world Cat yellow paint can’t fix. Example- International MaxxForce engines in “Cat” trucks lol. Thanks for another great episode Rich!
Seems like it would have been so much easier to just fix the fuel injection. Or put a proper carb on. Yeah, I like diesels too, but the 3.0 industrial engine is pretty good. Lots of cheap parts floating around from boats. Doesn't matter if the manufacturer is out of business, GM engine parts are super easy to get, and many of them interchange with regular SBC stuff.
Its the PSI system, with cobbled wiring from a dozen different people over 2 decades screwing with them. Take a stab at the cost of the PSI ecu that you can't get and I can't 100% guarantee is the problem in the first place. This took 4 days, and cost me almost nothing
@@DGHD Oh I agree the wiring was crap, but just rip it out and start over. Not much to it. Seems like a carb would work fine for that application. If the 3L isn't worn out it's probably worth as much to sell as the Cat engine would have been now that it's out, just as a long block. (I'd take it if you were closer!)
Yeah, I realized that in the next video. Unfortunately, the CAT is so big that it won't swing without hitting now. The sacrifice for more POWER! (Clarkson)
Best way to build something, is with whatever is laying around handy. Saves time, money, and when it all finally wares out, your not out $$$$, more money than you paid for your home.
The numbering system for bellhousings probably comes from the gauge system that's used for measuring of a lot of different things. For some reason, it tends to start in the middle somewhere and increase as sizes get smaller. When you go too big for zero, you tend to just get 00, then 000. For example, half inch plate steel, is 0000000 gauge
Have all the wiring figured out and everything is working good. A couple of the functions needed a little help to wake up but it is a fully functioning machine again. The next video is being edited right now and will be out next on this channel
There are Perkins CAT engines and Perkins Perkins engines. Be careful not to mix the two up, they are the same engine but have subtle differences in the fuel system and a few other differences.
Lol cat owns Perkins and deere produces pretty well everything themselves the whole drivetrain from motor to power shift transmission cant say that about case newholland or fendt Massy who out source parts alot more then deere does they all do it a little including deere but i guarantee deere does it the least outa all tractor manufacturers
It’s a perkipillar lol. I think Deere partnered with with liebherr recently for some of their larger engines and deutz recently for their smaller engines. Previously Deere used yanmar for their smaller stuff and the larger stuff was their own.
@@Warfare_Clown yes, they do a fair bit of manufacturing and all types of equipment. We own two tractors with their engines in them. We also have a compact tractor that was built by Yanmar. An compact excavator that appears to be built by Hitachi, a Gator that has a Yanmar engine in it. A rotary mower that was built by Kuhn. So yeah... they also have other manufacturers build stuff to their specifications. So of the 5 John Deere pieces of equipment we own only 2 of them actually have John Deere engines powering them.
@@Krobear lol john deere engines are built in 5 different countries mainly usa then france argentina mexico and India their powershifts r us made and ivts r german made waterloo iowa John Deere is the only tractor company that has their own foundry to be able to cast their parts themselves and i think ur confusing john deere with massy who builds some of their motors in china
I started watching your channel when episode one dropped into my recommendations. You haven't disappointed me since that fateful day. Keep doing what you are doing, please. Best regards from the UK
hi,im in aus. any outlets there for MWM sprint diesels, [60tc,], 4.2tdi. need a water pump.. 340 r/t dodge..at,,,,g... mail. dot com.. there a brazilian diesel under contract from germany.. the 4 cyl one is probably same.. 97 - 2007,ish.. been watching him since start,,honest & real vids.. im from lancashire,blackburn, dont hold that against me, my uncle,used to own blackburn rovers,,never met him..aus is no better now than u.k.
Kubota make a handy timer module that bypasses safeties for about 15 seconds when the key goes from run to start I believe they call it a glow plug timer relay, cat makes one also that is used on the big cat motors I just ordered two for a logger buddy of mine
In my Massey's that sensor up top measures engine temp and when the engine warms up, the timing selenoid on the pump opens or closes. Can't remember. Helps with cold starts. My 08 massey is a tier 3 compliant diesel even though its mechanical because of that. Has a special tag stating it. Might be what you have there.
Looks like a 3.0 chevy in that lift. they are cheap and easy to get running with a 2 bbl and the ignition is self contained, just unplug the dizzy from the ecu, and let er eat
The other wires on the pump are a water temperature sensor and timing advance "wax motor", they are for cold start emissions. Power goes to one terminal on the sensor, the other goes to the advance in the bottom of the pump, water sensor goes open circuit when the engine is warm and stops supplying the advance. Not required in your application......
In Australia if you found a knuckle boom like that that you could have you are not allowed to use machines over 15 to 20 years old because when you buy the new machine you have 10 years to use it then you have to get recertified which is all weld x-rayed and full inspection which is very costly then you have 5 years after that and you may if you are lucky to get another 5 years before it's to be scrapped the laws here in Victoria are so strict it is unbelievable
What's funny is a jlg gas lift needs 90 hp but the diesel version was 45 to get the same power and now you can get a power tapper for threading with a drill / impact and hell look at wire size the bigger you go the lower the number until the 0/1 size
Gotta love the backstory. The lift video was the first video that i saw of yours and thank god cuz youre entertaining, informative and from ontario like me haha
Are you shure it wasn an murphymatic? That unit can cut off the engine on low oil pressure/high coolant temp. Commented halfway the vid. Still possible to put that button on starting up everywhere you want and pull a wire. But you also can use these contacts to power a horn. If it start beeping you know it time to give it a glance.
Regarding tapping with a drill im a machinist and i tap holes with a drill alot. Yes if the threads needs to be perfect i will use a tap guide or tap it in the cnc depending on the part. As long as you are square with the part nothing wrong with it. Ive tapped a 2.5mm thread on a $20k plate before using a drill just to prove i could. All depends on your skill.
When you said a diesel engine makes it a nice machine, all I thought of was a second gen Dodge. Completely worthless with a 318, but awesome with a 12-valve.
The only day I ever had a man lift with the engine running all day is when I was running command table slash beta cable for equipment any warehouse and I was Bobby and weaving everywhere but that's the only time running for 10 seconds LOL
Well with your SAE thing, if you started from small to big youd have the opposite problem - what happens if you want to make an even smaller bellhousing, youd still have to use 00 and such. Doesnt “fix” the problem to start smallest at 0 just flips it on its head. I have no idea why they do it that way, but its the same for gauge sizes for wire and similar things. I think if you want to go too far off the scale theyve given you, you find a new scale (for example moving from number size drill bits to fractional once they get big enough)

“Perkins designed it and Cat painted it.“ Sounds a lot like John Deere doesn’t it? LOL!
Lol cat owns Perkins and deere produces pretty well everything themselves the whole drivetrain from motor to power shift transmission cant say that about case newholland or fendt Massy who out source parts alot more then deere does they all do it a little including deere but i guarantee deere does it the least outa all tractor manufacturers
Last time a checked Deere manufactured his own engines up to 560 hp. And they plan on going up to 800 ho with their last addition
It’s a perkipillar lol. I think Deere partnered with with liebherr recently for some of their larger engines and deutz recently for their smaller engines. Previously Deere used yanmar for their smaller stuff and the larger stuff was their own.
@@Warfare_Clown yes, they do a fair bit of manufacturing and all types of equipment. We own two tractors with their engines in them. We also have a compact tractor that was built by Yanmar. An compact excavator that appears to be built by Hitachi, a Gator that has a Yanmar engine in it. A rotary mower that was built by Kuhn. So yeah... they also have other manufacturers build stuff to their specifications. So of the 5 John Deere pieces of equipment we own only 2 of them actually have John Deere engines powering them.
@@Krobear lol john deere engines are built in 5 different countries mainly usa then france argentina mexico and India their powershifts r us made and ivts r german made waterloo iowa John Deere is the only tractor company that has their own foundry to be able to cast their parts themselves and i think ur confusing john deere with massy who builds some of their motors in china
Make sure both E-Stop buttons are popped out or it won't start/run. Couldn't tell from the camera if they were or not.
I started watching your channel when episode one dropped into my recommendations. You haven't disappointed me since that fateful day. Keep doing what you are doing, please. Best regards from the UK
hi,im in aus. any outlets there for MWM sprint diesels, [60tc,], 4.2tdi. need a water pump.. 340 r/t dodge..at,,,,g... mail. dot com.. there a brazilian diesel under contract from germany.. the 4 cyl one is probably same.. 97 - 2007,ish.. been watching him since start,,honest & real vids.. im from lancashire,blackburn, dont hold that against me, my uncle,used to own blackburn rovers,,never met him..aus is no better now than u.k.
You're lucky to have a place like V&R. Places around where I live don't let you roam the yard due to liability concerns.
Always love watching these vids ...rich mate you have a great out look on life .. get into it and have fun doing it ..
I use a drill all the time for chasing threads as well as cutting new threads
Kubota make a handy timer module that bypasses safeties for about 15 seconds when the key goes from run to start I believe they call it a glow plug timer relay, cat makes one also that is used on the big cat motors I just ordered two for a logger buddy of mine
In my Massey's that sensor up top measures engine temp and when the engine warms up, the timing selenoid on the pump opens or closes. Can't remember. Helps with cold starts. My 08 massey is a tier 3 compliant diesel even though its mechanical because of that. Has a special tag stating it. Might be what you have there.
Looks like a 3.0 chevy in that lift. they are cheap and easy to get running with a 2 bbl and the ignition is self contained, just unplug the dizzy from the ecu, and let er eat
I’d look for a high idle solenoid off a yanmar in a thermo king unit to help out
Found one on Amazon.
Yes spot on
The other wires on the pump are a water temperature sensor and timing advance "wax motor", they are for cold start emissions. Power goes to one terminal on the sensor, the other goes to the advance in the bottom of the pump, water sensor goes open circuit when the engine is warm and stops supplying the advance. Not required in your application......
Thanks!
I don't know why, but I love the sound of your forklift sped up.
It sounds like a little nitro rc car.
I never saw that model m12 torque wrench before. Gonna have to find one
Diesel Creek did something with the two throttle solenoids on his gravel compactor. I think he just used 2 switches one momentary the other toggle.
In Australia if you found a knuckle boom like that that you could have you are not allowed to use machines over 15 to 20 years old because when you buy the new machine you have 10 years to use it then you have to get recertified which is all weld x-rayed and full inspection which is very costly then you have 5 years after that and you may if you are lucky to get another 5 years before it's to be scrapped the laws here in Victoria are so strict it is unbelievable
What's funny is a jlg gas lift needs 90 hp but the diesel version was 45 to get the same power and now you can get a power tapper for threading with a drill / impact and hell look at wire size the bigger you go the lower the number until the 0/1 size
Gotta love the backstory. The lift video was the first video that i saw of yours and thank god cuz youre entertaining, informative and from ontario like me haha
In big cinstruction we run lifts all day. You are just moving all the time. But we are talking the BIG boom lifts twice+ size of that one
Any video with a cute cat rates a 10.
Are you shure it wasn an murphymatic? That unit can cut off the engine on low oil pressure/high coolant temp.
Commented halfway the vid. Still possible to put that button on starting up everywhere you want and pull a wire. But you also can use these contacts to power a horn. If it start beeping you know it time to give it a glance.
Last time I was this early nuts and bolts were still the barn cats
Regarding tapping with a drill im a machinist and i tap holes with a drill alot. Yes if the threads needs to be perfect i will use a tap guide or tap it in the cnc depending on the part. As long as you are square with the part nothing wrong with it. Ive tapped a 2.5mm thread on a $20k plate before using a drill just to prove i could. All depends on your skill.
When you said a diesel engine makes it a nice machine, all I thought of was a second gen Dodge. Completely worthless with a 318, but awesome with a 12-valve.
Nailed it
The only day I ever had a man lift with the engine running all day is when I was running command table slash beta cable for equipment any warehouse and I was Bobby and weaving everywhere but that's the only time running for 10 seconds LOL
Well with your SAE thing, if you started from small to big youd have the opposite problem - what happens if you want to make an even smaller bellhousing, youd still have to use 00 and such. Doesnt “fix” the problem to start smallest at 0 just flips it on its head.
I have no idea why they do it that way, but its the same for gauge sizes for wire and similar things. I think if you want to go too far off the scale theyve given you, you find a new scale (for example moving from number size drill bits to fractional once they get big enough)
Brilliant I recently took a cherry picker off a written off Nissan cab star and fit it to a low ground pressure marooka tracked machine 18 metre reach
