One thing I have learned. There is a lot of good people in this world . North south east and west and over seas. Hard working people sharing the same interest and everyday problems. I need to quit watching the news so much. Thanks !
6 hours = write it up, put it in the computer que, wait 5 or more hours for someone to look at it scratch their head and spin the big wheel of diagnostics. How many things will dealer fix before they stumble upon the actual problem.
It took my car dealership 3 hrs of labor to tell me why the console armrest heater didn’t work, it was a bad arm rest heater element 😳. Two days later took another 3 hrs to put the new one in. Oh I forgot, included programming time. Peterbilt’s 6 hr seems like a bargain.
Without people like him, there would be no economy. And i wish i could find somebody like you to teach me the oldskool things, i was going to look for work, talked to the boss while walking around in the shop, the mechanic did something and i saw it, told him that he was putting it on wrong and gave him a trick to make it easier, i did not get the job, few days later i walked into the mechanic, he tells me they hired somebody (while they did not need anybody), a guy who has a diploma, but has 0 experience, i am the exact same age as the guy, he has a diploma, i don't, i have showed theyre mechanic a trick, the other guy did not now anything, why did i not get a chance, im not giving up it's like a bolt that is stuck its love and hate but you aint stoppin till that sucker comes off anyway, dont judge a book by its cover or look at the backside to see whats the story about, you are a good man and i wish you the best of luck, sorry for my wining its because of my massive balls, stay save people
I've been worried about you Warren. Always know it's going to be a great day, when I can wake up, have my coffee, and have a new video from my favorite mechanic. I hope all is well with you, Warren. Give them Pup babies love!!
Warren, your channel seems to be getting much more popular. Good for you! Hope you are making some cash. Still love your videos. Thanks much for making them.
Love to listen to you talk while you work. Very relaxing for me, almost reminds me of talking to my grandfather who I grew up learning how to farm from.
I really look forward to your videos. Your just the best mechanic I have ever seen. Well done Warren. I’m a grave digger myself but can’t wait fir your next video
I've just watched your video and I'm relieved my parcel reached you. Sorry if the camera mount doesn't fit yours. To be honest, I bought it years ago in Australia, took it back home and It never got used. I just thought it might come in handy. So stoked you got my package. Cheers mate 👍
Warren, its such a pleasure to watch a TRUE CRAFSTMAN at work, especially someone who takes pride in their work, and not a mechanic just getting the job done.
That truck is b e a utiful!! now that person has a working beautiful truck. Another job well done by the tractor master! Thank you Warren for another entertaining, informative piece of video art.
I think it is nice that viewers enjoy your work so much they send you good tools and parts to use in your work. the only thing a viewer ever sent me was a set of tiger print speedos and asked me to wear them in one of the videos, i took most of my videos down then. ;)
"She'll either come or bleed" LOL! I havent heard that expression used in a long time! I was a first year Nuclear grade Steamfitter weldor Apprentice in 1979! Working on a Steam Valve repair crew with Journeyman Steamfitters. These old boys were tougher than a gunnysack full of boxcar Springs! We were using Slug Wrenches on the 2 inch Nuts in the places around the bonnets were you couldn't get the Hydraulic Nut buster on em. Those old boys swinging a 5 pound double jack sledgehammer and chewing on an old cigar butt while I held the backup bar in place was truely terrifying Lol!
Remember that picture of the windowed block I sent you , ISX #5 cyl hydro locked from bad head gasket and it caused that rod to crack and KaBoom! Send that rod out and have it checked bud ! Thanks for sharing take care now 👍
Great to see you doing well, a few year ago you were so slow. Your customers and Community are saying something, they want you to stay. Wish you the best
A six hour diagnosis pays more than a five hour. I had a Ford car where the dealer wanted a $1500 diagnostic fee just to tell me what the trouble was. I had it towed out of there and bought a Toyota the same day.
hey Warren your wife seems like pretty amazing lady and i did like her comment their at the end nobody sends me anything from the UK just thought it was funny and i always in joy your videos some of your comments just make me laugh
Hey there Warren. Pretty impressed with that ISX, 900,000 miles and the internals look like an engine with half that many miles. I expected a lot more wear on those bearings and when you said the cross hatch still looked good, I had to rewind and hear that again. Lol. I knew the head gasket let go as soon as the engine pushed back when you turned the key, definitely no mistaking that sound. Always enjoy your thought process when you are working out the problem. I'm glad I'm not the only one who talks to himself sortin things out. Lol You and your wife have a good weekend there buddy!👍👌🤙
Thanks Warren for sharing your knowledge and information about the things you’re working on I had a plant manager that went to manage a large lumber company over there in roseburg Oregon. You’re probably familiar with them
My ISX (company day cab) ate a crank at 60K, ceramic fuel pistons went. Cummins installed a new engine and now at 390K and it’s been trouble free. We got a new truck last month, it was offered to me. I like my ‘15 and said I will just keep her. Anyone else turn their head when the arc was struck? Warren, your busier then a one legged man at a ass kicking contest.
Sure do like to watch you work Warren! Nice to watch someone who actually knows what they are doing on the job! I think a bunch of people in that Washington DC place could take some lessons from you lol. Would love to see you carry that pup around in the pouch, I'm sure it would make my beer come out of my nose from laughing. Great video, and thank you very much!
Hell, CPS has had my truck 5-weeks now. Three of those weeks was spent diagnosing and the past two weeks searching for a new head for my non-egr DDEC-4 Series 60. Supposedly it shipped yesterday Friday May 21st and should arrive to CPS Mon-Wed of next week. Sadly for me, it was CPS who caused the damage to my limited production engine when another of their shops rebuilt my engine 5-yrs ago, installing the head gasket upside down. After 4-months, they rebuilt it a second time with a damaged cylinder head but didn't tell me and I've been driving it like that for 5-years now. That shop closed its doors in 2019. This past February I had the current shop replace the 19-year old fuel injectors. Immediately after installing the six-pack, the engine had starting problems which it's never had, and blowing white clouds out the exhaust stack for the first 3 seconds after starting but would clear up. Six weeks ago while at a customer location making a delivery, I came out and discovered anti-freeze all over the ground coming from coolant tank overflow. I put it in CPS shop and they've had it ever since. They say the fire deck is pitted and grooved out from the firing rings. They informed me that because of the length of time, they won't make right the damage initiated by their other shop and once they get it back on the road, I'll have to cough up $8k-$10k for the full repair. Just can't win in this hobby. Thank goodness mine didn't hydro-lock or else I'd be out of business. I've spent over $20k having that engine rebuilt top to bottom just to almost lose it because of a stupid mistake they made. These are certified Detroit Diesel facilities and they still screwed up.
Warren I know I was one that told you about the the tachometer drive kit I didn’t know if it was still available but I guess it was you got one it’s been 20 years since I’ve replaced a 8430 engine
He is waiting for someone that I believe is in a tech school right now. This may or may not affect Warren but there are many businesses around the country right now that are suffering due to not being able to get anyone to come and work for them. The government has been paying higher amounts of unemployment benefits and for longer periods of time. 99% of people that get unemployment tend not to go back to working until the unemployment benefit runs out for them.
Holy crap, that looks and sounds exactly like my shop in nebraska, except I'm running out of a 60 by 80 half concrete that dad built for him. I convinced him to let me start a truck shop out of it. 3 years later there, is now no room for farm repairs and I need to hire someone too.
I am in my mid 80s family says no more dogs, had 6 in my lifetime, could borrow one of yours. I love dogs never complain love you all the time. All The time. I had 4 Shellie’s a hound and a collie best friends I ever had. I would babysit them for you.
diagnosis.........bubbles,pressure in the cooling system (air system is normal) its a no brainer blown head gasket or cracked head. Sometimes it will only be when the engine is hot because a crack in the head needs heat to expand and manifest itself. When it wont crank on a good battery its water in the cylinder. dont need 6 hours to figure that out. best thing is rip the head/s off and get them crack tested......look for any other causes. If there is a ridge in the top of cylinder liner its water present during combustion causing a huge pressure spike shoving the piston sideways and potentially failing the head gasket etc. Reminds of the Kenworth dealer at dubbo NSW Australia............had a Kenworth come in with a low power issue. They hooked up the scan tool, test drove, mucked around for 2 days...........all it was in the end was a split hose between the turbo and intercooler. Freakin dumbasses. That truck is a credit to its owner for 900,000 miles ))
My father had an ISX600 (Series 2 NON EGR) in a 65,000kg B-Double and it clocked 2,000,000km no problem, still not using oil,good on fuel and power running on synthetic oil. When cummins mechanic went to do the valve lash at 1.5 million he said it looked like new under the cover and lash barely needed adjustment.
I think Cummins were one of the first to make a macanical comman rail diesel. Some of our trucks had these Engines. 8 wheeler Scammall dump trucks. Some also had Rolls Royce Eagle diesel engines.
Had the same issue except it was a cracked head and on #1, and fire ring on sleeve was cracked. Hydro locked sitting over night. Thank God, sometimes they do it going 70 mph.
There is something universal about all of us mechanics we all seem to get excited about stuff like assorted plug caps etc while all non mechanics look at you like you've escaped from your carer😂
I watched a video of a "RUclips Trucker" that had helped some guy at the truck stop. His engine was hydrolocked cylinders full of coolant. The guy did him a favor and hooked a chain onto the truck to bump start it and get it running.
Warren, another air injection possibility is a leaky inter-cooler, I had a truck with a cracked inter-cooler. at idle rpm, no injection, but under load the 20+ psi of boost would blow coolant out the surge tank.
Hi Warren,I really enjoy your videos, just a quick question,what ever happened to the oiler service truck that you were swapping the drive train on a couple of weeks ago, keep up the good work my friend!
I had one of those 300 Renault Mack 3 tons that half the head bolts on it were rusted into the heads and snapped. It took days with welding, torch, oil, impact, blood, and sweat to get them all out of the block. They used some paired head bolts between the heads. The top of the engine deck was so heavily corroded I needed to use high temp silicone to fill in all the pitting from rust or the head gasket wouldn't have kept the coolant in it. What a whacked piece of "engineering" those are.
I understand why the Peterbuilt dealer told the customer that it could take up to 6hrs to diagnose. Like Warren said; there’s some real asswipes that’ll use one shop to diagnose and a cheaper shop to fix after it’s been diagnosed. The 6hr quote was their attempt to weed out tire kickers. Not taking up for the dealerships but I’ve seen plenty of shady ass customers over my career.
One thing I have learned. There is a lot of good people in this world . North south east and west and over seas. Hard working people sharing the same interest and everyday problems. I need to quit watching the news so much. Thanks !
its all propaganda anyway...
@@JeffMTXI was sent to confirm....it is ALL propaganda
Your busier than a one armed paper hanger. A sign of a trusted mechanic. Thanks for your efforts to make these videos, it can’t be easy to.
If we had more guys like you and lees politics, the world would be a far beter place. Thank you for all your great videos 👍🤝🙂
having the help of a great wife is wonderful.
I really like the fact you are such a nice guy, with a lovely wife and sweet dogs.keep safe.best wishes from the uk
My concern is safety; all that heavy metal. Take it from someone who worked at Caterpillar for years!
Peterbilt= 6 hours diagnostic
Warren= 10 seconds
Outstanding.
6 hours = write it up, put it in the computer que, wait 5 or more hours for someone to look at it scratch their head and spin the big wheel of diagnostics. How many things will dealer fix before they stumble upon the actual problem.
@@rsmith3062 The dealer will obviously start by replacing the diffs and the transmission and then charge ... oops .... work up from there.
It took my car dealership 3 hrs of labor to tell me why the console armrest heater didn’t work, it was a bad arm rest heater element 😳. Two days later took another 3 hrs to put the new one in. Oh I forgot, included programming time. Peterbilt’s 6 hr seems like a bargain.
He ran no tests not much of a diagnostic

Sometimes tests just waste time.
Thank you for another video, Warren.

Great video as always ,thanks for sharing Warren
Good work warren i love those enge rebults 👍
I've seen a EGR cooler build pressure it was very interesting
Talked to a guy who blocked his EGR when the truck was newish. He has over 1.2 million miles on it and going strong.
Can’t beat a truck and trailer. Snowmobile in the winter😎
Great video yet again. Much enjoyed...
Cracked liner will evacuate the cooling system pretty dang quick.
I was thinking that too. It would have to be a big gap in the head gasket to leak that much fluid.

900,000 miles on that truck, wow, he sure takes care of it as you say Warren. Thanks for you videos mate, from Oz.

You really should watch the other videos he has before you speak there is a guy he is hiring once that person gets there
@@scrotiemcbogerballs8286
Isn't the young man attending a trade school in heavy equipment repairs? And Warren said he had some idea of repairs.
He is waiting for someone that I believe is in a tech school right now.

At lest the radiator has had a good pressure test for leaks.
Am dying to know how the conversation went with John Deere over that reman engine.
If anything, the video probably told the story pretty good. I'm also looking forward for the next video on it

Hi Warran I'm from Dunedin NZ keep up the good work 👍
We have just done a head gasket on a JD it was the same thing. Got the head skimmed and pressure tested. Of course it's ok now.
I am in my mid 80s family says no more dogs, had 6 in my lifetime, could borrow one of yours. I love dogs never complain love you all the time. All
The time. I had 4 Shellie’s a hound and a collie best friends I ever had. I would babysit them for you.
Pozzi Hay outta Petaluma Ca! One of the few truck and trailers in my parts!
Valley Ford is NOT Petaluma! 😂
I thought it was Two Rock 😅
I can’t believe the valves were dry. Usually would have suspected to seen worn valve seals.
Greatest video thank you fur sharing
Love how the wife cleaning up were you have been your lucky you made it to kitchen I’ve often been told strip outside 😆
warren your a legend
diagnosis.........bubbles,pressure in the cooling system (air system is normal) its a no brainer blown head gasket or cracked head. Sometimes it will only be when the engine is hot because a crack in the head needs heat to expand and manifest itself. When it wont crank on a good battery its water in the cylinder. dont need 6 hours to figure that out. best thing is rip the head/s off and get them crack tested......look for any other causes. If there is a ridge in the top of cylinder liner its water present during combustion causing a huge pressure spike shoving the piston sideways and potentially failing the head gasket etc. Reminds of the Kenworth dealer at dubbo NSW Australia............had a Kenworth come in with a low power issue. They hooked up the scan tool, test drove, mucked around for 2 days...........all it was in the end was a split hose between the turbo and intercooler. Freakin dumbasses. That truck is a credit to its owner for 900,000 miles ))

Hello from El rito Texas
Thanks Warren
I had one of those 300 Renault Mack 3 tons that half the head bolts on it were rusted into the heads and snapped. It took days with welding, torch, oil, impact, blood, and sweat to get them all out of the block. They used some paired head bolts between the heads. The top of the engine deck was so heavily corroded I needed to use high temp silicone to fill in all the pitting from rust or the head gasket wouldn't have kept the coolant in it.
