DD15 valve adjustment Part 1 on a Freightliner Cascadia
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 май 2019
- Part 1 of the DD15 valve adjustment, tried to make this short and to the point. This is probably the most important part in setting up your DD15 for the valve adjustment. I will be showing you how to set up the proper timing and what to look for as well as what tools you will need in order to make this happen.
Performing a valve adjustment is one of the easiest things to do if you are having regen issues, low power, poor fuel economy and is part of the recommended maintenance.

Incredible Pedro su video, lo estaba viendo en mi TV y asta pare mi video en TV para agradecerle pero necesitaba mi telefono para poder hacele un comment. Muchicimas gracias por todo. Amazing video
Thank you for video. It helps me do the tune up job. The key point is when the flywheel at the diamond point, how to make sure it is TDC1 or TDC6. Feel the free travel of the valve arm, but my tractor’s all intake side valves are tight. I spent a lot time for this question. Then I watch the camshaft video, know the triangle point on the gear , it is TDC1.
So the triangle present is tdc1 & no triangle is tdc6?
Use the triangle to get TDC 1, rotate 360 degrees and use the point on the flywheel. But you are correct, there is no triangle on TDC 6
@@CarlosDieselElectric definitely always make sure the timing mark is on the flywheel both tdc 1 & 6

A valve adjustment may help. Vales may be tight.
Perform a compression test. This may help you to see which cylinder may be low.
Also, perform an ISB test. This may help you see which injector or injectors are not performing up to par.
Hey Carlos’s
Can you do engine brake 797 Jacob brakes
Removal and reinstalling., model 404D
Mi amigo
Can you do a removal and reinstallation
Of the Jacob brake, model 760A & 765
On a Detroit 60
Is this something I can do myself
Great question. Yes, take your time when trying to perform a valve adjustment. Get familiar with the engine and what to look for. It takes practice when you are using your feeler gauge. If it is too tight or too loose. It has to have slip drag
Is the natural rotation Carlos the way my engine fan os going when my engine is running?
Look at the main crank pulley down at the front of the engine.
i have a 2020 is it going to be the same procedure or is it different for newer models?
2020 is the same.
Hey, to all the people who gave a thumbs down. Please post the links to your videos.
hey so i only have experience with the MTU 12V engines since i only work on those... my question is, that tool you are using to rotate the engine, is it useful for all models like cummins, detroit etc. or is there a specific one for each engine brand. thank you.
The tool is specific to DD engine. The DD13, DD15 and the DD16.
@@CarlosDieselElectric ok thanks for the response!
How do you know if cylinder 1 is at TDC just by rotating the engine at the alternator? What should I look for under the valve cover to know if I’m at TDC
You can confirm TDC1 by looking at the gears in the back of the rocker housing. If you see the triangles pointing up. Each rocker will have its own triangle.
I also use the tool to confirm, they offer a tool for the flywheel that gets inserted and there is a tool for the CAM. I use both when I first get started.
If you are TDC 1. You will have intake valves 1, 2 and 4 ready to be adjusted.
You will have exhaust valves 1, 3 and 5 ready for adjustment.
If you don’t have the timing tools then you can look for the timing mark on the flywheel and line it up with the flywheel housing.
That should put you pretty close to TDC 1 or TDC 6.
Hope this helps
ooooooook anh carlos.
I want to bring my truck in

How much is that work adjustment valve
Typically a valve adjustment will cost about $300-400 depending on the truck. For example, if you have a Cascadia with the short hood the cost will be more because cylinders 4-5-6 are harder to get.
Can I ask how much will mechanic charge you for this job thank you
Trucker Dave 215 depending on the shop, something like this would cost about $300-350.
Carlos Diesel Electric appreciate the information man I subscribe thanks
How u do engine rebuild for 2011 DD15
Jeremy Kura engine rebuild on a DD15, I know how. What do you want to know?
@@CarlosDieselElectric Sorry I didn't mean to discount ur knowledge. I meant to ask how much will cost me engine rebuild. U can email me for more info. ermaby@yahoo.com.
@@CarlosDieselElectric by the way. Thank you for your kindness and quick response to answer questions.
Jeremy Kura the cost depends slightly on what year the truck is. Typically the cost of an inframe is about $17K-$19K. This would be parts and labor.
Jeremy Kura thank you
