On my 97 dodge. I cleaned all the block grounds. One of the lugs wasn't even that tight. Also found that the main electrical plug that goes into the trans was wet with tyranny fluid. I also had a 99 dodge and it had same problem. Ended up being alternator. The next thing to try is drive with alternator unplugged and see if it goes away. Then you have to change the alternator supposedly it's a bad diode.
Well I got my 97 to stop unlocking by doing the things I mentioned first. Didn't touch the alternator except I also did clean all the alternator connections. Hopefully Jeff does that first.
Of course the flat tire is under the outrigger that won't work. Thanks for the visit to Fallon, it's been a while. Best Wishes to everyone at Anderson Construction.
It would be nice to have friends really but when you are a really good mechanic people tend to use you under the pretence of friends..an then when it's fixed they tell you ...your only needed when your needed..
453 Detroit I ran some of those back in the day they were 150 A models typically 453 was common had a later model had a 12 valve cummins yours is the first ive seen with a IH engine
Not sure of the year, but Komatsu bought Galion supposedly to take their motor graders out of competition! About the same time, they also bought Dresser, the former IH construction equipment line. At the railroad shop I worked in, we had one of the last Galion cranes built. It was labeled Galion at some places, Dresser at others, and had a Komatsu engine! Damn shame this American made iron is gone!
That’s a 4-53 Detroit Mr PayDirt. It actually came out after the 71 series. Only the 53 series has perimeter valve cover bolts. 71 series are through the center. 53 series has fuel pump and Governor on the same side. 71 series in-line has liner inspection covers on the side of the block, in-line 53s do not.
AC ripple from your alternator. Replace the diode pack in your alternator, or buy a reman. Bet it would clear up with your lights off and reduced load.
Here's an interesting tidbit...In the early 70s Galion took a crane chassis and put a wheel lift on the front that picked the graders up at the pivot point of the front axle to move them around the factory grounds
There's one of those puppies down the road from me here in the north Okanagan. Everytime I drive by im thinking of ya. Iffin you commence to building a collection I'll check er out :)
🤣😂🤣 Not a trucker but I play one on YousTubus 🤣😂🤣😂 New Felon Galion dang fell off 😳 I heard you got another Galion. We named the new dog “Butterscotch or Butters” Got me a new toy also. Scissor lift.😊 needs some work. So I’m headed out to play.
TORQUE CONVERTER LOCKUP PROBLEM: Could be the APPS ( throttle position sensor ) is glitching out, I did have a few trucks back in the day that had a interference problem and the fix was to clean the main ground on the block, add a ground to the Dodge PCM from the block ( yes on the plastic PCM case ), clean the Cummins PCM mounts and add an extra ground, last replace the ground wire between the APPS and the Cummins PCM. I would clean and add the grounds and see if the problem goes away before replacing the APPS ground wire because it's a pain to do. The best part is that if it's the interference/ground problem, you will never see it even with the factory scan tool. Ask me how I know.
so i replaced the tps resistor style with a hall effect one years ago, but the voltage is off and it needs adjusted, I was talking with a local tech and I mentioned the chip and he picked it up and gently dropped it a couple times as I'm telling him maybe I should unplug the chip and see it the problem goes away and he said ya start there, so I left and no more problem.......so is it the chip or did my truck hear us talking about it? LOL
Nice fleet you are building up Jeff. Next thing that will happen. Jeff’s phone ringing “ Hey Jeff! This is Andrew Camaratti! You interested in selling a D9 or a Gallion?” 💵💵💵 😂😂😂
My 2005 Jeep Cherokee kept dropping out of lockup. Did that a while until lockup completely failed. Not sure why and so I think I'll have a trans shop do the rebuild. Maybe it wasn't holding enough pressure somewhere.
Great video Jeff nice looking part's machine for your Galion Crane. Glad to see you and the other Galion Crane made it home. Looking forward to your next video stay safe Jeff.
These GMC have emergency shut down flaps on blower spring loaded . If tripped motor will never start even on starting fluid. Seen many people stuck from it tripped . It can be reset by hand on blower.
When the DOT comes and knocks on your door And ask you to pee in a cup Just hand him the Gatorade bottle And tell him go ahead and And test that It's still warm😅😂

I’ve been waiting for this video. Jeff in my hometown, crazy. Wish I would’ve known you were there that day, I would’ve stop by with my air compressor on my service truck. I lived three miles away. Crazy seeing that crane parked there for the past few years. Never knew it was wrecked and never would’ve guess you would end up with it but at least you’ll get some good use out of it.
Nice score on that unit ❤👍 Sure was easy to get it started and it walked on the trailer on its own.😂 Thanks for taking the time to show us👍👍😎😎 Pat from northwest WI

Correct. AC ripple from failing diode pack. Don't even trouble shoot it. Just replace the pack, or buy some junk off the shelf.

you went to Winnemucca and did not stop at The Griddle restaurant ? You missed out
having run an old grove crane in the same class as this having to floor it to go anywhere is pretty normal
The most beautiful part of Fallon is the way to friggin hot in the summer and the absolutely bitter cold in the winter

No Jef waste mills they are not worth the energy they supposedly make
9:28 seeing this parts maschine it might be better to swap parts onto this one - it looks like its in better condition than your restored one
Nice parts machine! That Detroit sounds great
🤣😂🤣
Not a trucker but I play one on YousTubus 🤣😂🤣😂

Got a decent engine for the other crane now ,beats that IHC junk.
I know Russ Ferretto, he’s a good guy

Nope. On all of that.
@@Jpaydirt Don't know what chip you're talking about... But your tech should have said alternator and sent you on your way.
Winnemucca Nevada, where the men are men and the sheep are o scared Gal told me that one time over there
Carl's Jr. used to have fried zucchini, dip it in Ranch, it was the only reason why I'd stop there.
And the "Big Ass Fries"
I grew up near fallon. Highway 50 has some beautiful country.
The engine is $$$$ to the right person . 😊😊😊
Is this trouble Machines
shut off has a spring missing
Now you need a third crane so you can swap parts on these two
Crashing machine 😂
A damn Detroit
It won't be long before Jeff has the biggest D9 fleet and biggest Galion fleet on RUclips.
I think he already does!!
Bat tree....lol... grandad said that are you my grandad
No, I'm your father Luke
As my wife would say. More yard art for the pile of junk.
But honey, it's a parts machine. 😊
Nice fleet you are building up Jeff.
Next thing that will happen.

@@Jpaydirt next time Jeff
Nice! Jeff now you have two of them to work on. Thanks for sharing your videos.
Great to have one as a parts supply bro. Enjoyed the video too. Safe travels. Ken.
Nice score on that unit ❤👍
Sure was easy to get it started and it walked on the trailer on its own.😂 Thanks for taking the time to show us👍👍😎😎
Pat from northwest WI
Hey Geoff your new crane runs better than the one you just restored pity its a different engine/trans !!
tag on valve cover will tell you what it is. Im guessing 4-53
should be little spring loaded fipcap fitting in the intake near supercharger spray gogo juice in there thumbs up jeff
Hope you didn’t pay more than 5,500 !
If anyone can fix a Galion crane, it's Jeff. Nice parts rig.
Nice looking rubber on that gallion
GALION
It's not start you bastard. It's the ether bunny.
That has good bones you didnt go wrong matte 😂😂👋👋🐫
Good ol screaming Detroit or a Yamaha
gonna be fun watching another Galion restoration project in the shop next winter
I’m kind of interested in the story of that Chevy pickup next to the crane Jeff. Was that your previous daily driver?
it was my dads, then matt drove it
One Gallon became two gallons!
Might need to swap yer solenoid n transducer out Jeff. Had to do mine twice. Easy job just gotta drop the trans pan to do it.
those are GM now, I think it's the power adder, long story I'll talk about it later
doin yr bit for the environment jeff lol
Always nice to have parts machine 👍🏻🇺🇲
Fix it up and add it to the fleet?
-71 Detroit Diesel has been around since the late 1930's.
1938
Wish those tires were closer. Same size and style as the ones on both of my Michigan loaders.
well just do like me and go on a road trip
what ply rating are those tires? I got an older Skytrak with that size tires on it.
12
Thanks for the show Jeff 🍻
I cant believe it didnt have stuck injectors.
it ran in 2018
Hope you don't leave that new battery to rot ?
it's going in the other one, as the battery in it is old and weak, on a side note.....do batteries rot? LOL
It’s starting to sound like you’re thinking about fixing it up and running it
No!
Hey there buddy, I’m wondering what is the operating temperature for a 1996 5.9 Cummins engine
When my dodge was doing that,it was the TPS.
TPS report...Peter?
@@Jpaydirt 8 bosses...
Nice score
🍻
Another Jpaydirt road trip. Does your wife say anything when she sees what you bring home? 😁
She knows Jeff got a deal on it or it wouldn’t be sitting there! Like money in the bank.
