    Hi Bruce, I have been a diesel engineer for 45 years in Europe. Looking at the second cylinder, it definitely looks like it's been worked on. I would say that the sleeve seal has been installed incorrectly and is now your issue. Unfortunately, that means pulling the sleeve to change the seal. I'm glad you like our European trucks mate. I'm sure that given enough coverage on your side of the pond, more drivers will see the luxury and power of our trucks. Love your channel sir.

    Hi Bruce. I'm an Senior technician at Scania in Sweden, don't have that much experience with the 14 L engine but renovated a bunch of 16 L. You want to remove the liners and check how your engine block looks, if you are lucky you will get away with new o-rings and maybe a pair of new liners. What you want to think about is the other cylinders, if you gona do this kind of work, think about removing and check the rest. And you don't have to machine the head, clean it and check for cracks.

  • @railasvuo
    @railasvuo 9 месяцев назад +166

    You don't need to machine the cylinder heads. It is enough to clean the surfaces well. And that block usually has to be machined to an oversized size if it leaks from that part, but I didn't see any terrible corrosion in the video at least. And one option could be that the cylinder sleeve is installed badly, so the o-ring is leaking from there, because it looks like someone has done something to that other cylinder.
    Edit. And be sure to check the block for cracks. I had one like this once. it was cracked, as I recall, at the cylinder bolt and it was leaking water. Hope you see this edit

      I also thought that grinding over is not necessary. However, I'm not a car mechanic but a toolmaker, so I'm more careful with what I say. These are solid grey cast iron parts, which are also not long and large, and will never warp much. Scania has made a good design. Dry ice would certainly be ideal for cleaning. Afterwards, the parts would look like new.

      There is weep holes in the block, one for each cylinder. If the sleeves have sunk down , is cracked or the o rings are bad you will have coolant leaking through the weep holes. Make sure the weep holes are clean, and look at them while the engine is running you will see what cylinder is leaking

    It will be the seals in the head gasket. the V8 is renowned for the seals going. I did some on a 143. Don't get the head machined, its not needed as the individual heads don't tend to become mis formed. It really looks like the one head has been off before, and make sure you follow the torque pattern when putting them back on.

Been in a Scania 144 400+ (not too sure, of exact horsepower), for about, 14 months, a few months, in a Merc Actros & a Volvo FH (currently, a Volvo, since Nov this year). Always been a Scania fan, particularly the V8 & the longline with all that live-in free space, but as of yet, still never, never got even close to a Longline, let alone ever touched one (don't see too many of'em, here in the UK), cos' of overall length regs here in the UK, plus client location, tends to be impossible with a unit, of such a size, thus, you'd miss out on work.👍👍👍👍👍

    Bruce I work on a very similar German engine and it has the same problems with liner oring leaks. I know it’s a pain but if you go to Home Depot and grab some expander plugs and you can make a block off plate to pressurize the cooling system and spay soapy water on that liner to see if it leaks. I can tell you that unfortunately it’s never the head gasket for me but mine isn’t the same engine. I will say atleast you see how quickly you can get at it maybe just throw the head on it and see ,all your in it is some gaskets and a couple hrs. If it is the liner in all my cases the counter bore is never messed up and we just throw a new liner and orings in it and on ya go. The head gasket did look like the oring part that sealed coolant ripped and was stuck to your head.

    what you want to do is pull the liners and on the inside where the top of the liner meets the block check for any corrosion. if the block is corroded down past 4cm of the top youll need to bore it and use oversized liners. if there isnt any corrosion renewing the liner and block orings should do fine to keep the engine from leaking. i would suggest doing all the orings if thats the case tho. it would be much easier to do them all now then to do one or two and come back in a years time to do more.

    Bruce .. would say its a,liner seal.. but also check the liner hasn't dropped aswell...
    With your brake discs & pads aswell. You maybe lucky to pull the alloy bearing cover off .use a caliper bolt to try to draw it off you may get lucky but you normally end up smashing the bearing cover off so maybe order 2 new bearing covers the plastic nut normally chews up when trying to screw out of the bearing cover..
    You don't need to skim the heads either !!!!

      People saying no need machine the head. With
      Them being single heads they don’t warp so no machining just thorough cleaning. No need wasting money. Check your liner hight though. Scalia USA should tell you the allowable hight and torque figures you need. Take them all off. If those bolts are not quite correctly torqued down it will eventually cost you new liners and pistons. They really do need checking Bruce.

    21:33 Yeah , gas pressure doesn't really work that way. If you were to put pressure sensors in each of the cylinder's ports , the pressures would be all the same , regardless of which cylinder was closest to the intercooler.
    The intake plumbing acts as a plenum chamber.
    "A plenum chamber is a pressurised housing containing a fluid at positive pressure. One of its functions is to equalise pressure for more even distribution, compensating for irregular supply or demand. It is typically relatively large in volume and thus has relatively low velocity compared to the system's other components."

    Hi Bruce Scania’s don’t blow head gaskets if it’s leaking coolant from the heads it’s liner O’rings failure due to corrosion. Check the block for cracks where the liners seat as it’s common You might have to cut the block and go oversized liners if the corrosion is bad.

    The mat inside the wheel arch is for spray suppression and is a legal requirement in Europe. I'm pretty certain that Oskosh import Scania fire appliances into the US for city work so it might be worth seeing if they can source parts for you as a lot of parts are common across the range. As an example Scania made 13 different cab types and they all had the same windscreen.
