Your pistons were manufactured by White Machine Works WMW. Which was later called Gould- Clevite. Later called Clevite owned by Dana.
Awesome thank you for this info!
@@ScrappyIndustries as a vintage truck/tractor guy I love helping educate folks about old stuff and history!
@@crusty_trucks 👍
HI SCRAPPY DOO . KEEP YOUR EYS ON THE ROAD . LAD . AND KEEP THE VIDEOS COMEING THANKS .
SCRAPPY. IF IT WORKS SO WELL GIVE IT A GOOD CLEAN . AND IF NEEDS BE GIVE IT A LICK OF PAINT
I really like seeing younger guy’s like, Sam and Matt over at, Diesel Creek working on old stuff.
It is nice that you have so much enthusiasm.
It’s also nice to watch.
Keep up the good work, Sam.
Our pleasure!
Sam and Matt on a Saturday morning! Have a great weekend my friend👍
Good job! What was the oil pressure? Matt screwed you on the Parts washer, he knew exactly when to get rid of it. Lol
Yeah he did! It was in the green on the gauge that’s all I know lol
A real old machinist over here that helps us a lot with very old machinery said the WS stampings on your liners could probably stand for Warner and Swasey which was a large mfg of construction equipment and machine tools beginning in the 1940 s. Hope this helps you. Bill
They are still around making vault doors!
FWIW my tip would be to run tape around the big end journals as soon as you remove the rods to keep dirt out of the crank oil drillways while you work on cleaning the block etc.
Great project and very interesting to watch. Cheers from Western Australia
That’s a good idea. Will do next time! I think that’s a big advantage of having the engine stood up on end is the dirt isn’t falling onto the crank
We just put together a D4400. Had to get very creative on the parts!
I hope it went well!
I am super glad you found Squatch253 ..that man is absolutely amazing with his knowledge of Cat stuff ..thanks for your video 👍🏻🍻
Nice work Sam
Squatch 253 would be proud of you making gaskets
And Matt@DieselCreek's old parts washer was so quiet I could hardly tell it was running 😅
And always smiling as ever 👍
Boy I remember the old Bay City Machinery & American Host plants from my childhood years and remember when the plant shut down when I was a teenager. It was rough times for Bay City MI back then. Now the site where all those machines where made is now a big medical complex and a commercial development. It took 40 years before the city started to recover from both the American Host/ Bay City Machinery not to mention the GM plant slow down. I lost a lot of friends when their dads who lost their jobs moved away to find work. Bay City used to have a place called Defoe Ship yards that built ships during WW2.... a lot has changed in the last 70 years😢
I would love to have see. Those were old plants without any robots or CNC. Would have been wild
I will strongly suggest you may have wanted to see them but NEVER work in them. My dad worked in a FORD plant that was a few hundred thousand square feet, but filled with machining centers with open oil baths. If you have never seen this, it produces oil mist that fills all the available air you can breathe with oil mist. Class A carcinogens for everyone to breathe. So many of his friends died of lung cancer as they all smoked liked chimnneys. Lived hard and died hard. Different world then for a fact. Safety 3rd!@@ScrappyIndustries
Matt put in a super short pic of you picking that up. So I knew. You had to be paying really close attention at the end. He always has sneak peaks at what is next at the very end, after you think it already ended.
It makes my heart so happy when watching your videos and also Matt's [ Diesel Creek ]. Not easy to find young guys actaully wanting to save and work on or repair old equiptment. If I remember corretnly Matt said the only thing that was wrong with the parts washer was that it was too loud, and had been in his family for a while. Love that you are rebuilding a 1941 cat engine. Awesome! Enjoy your video, Sam, Keep em coming. Appreicate your hard work...Gentle Hugs to both your Dogs..
After engine rebuild, run three quarts of ATF in place of oil, it'll clean the oil passages and strip any crud and carbon in places unseen. Run it for a good 15-20 hours on that oil mix at temperature, then change oil and oil filters. Should run like new after that.
Well I had to pause for a moment and saw I have diesel creak on deck up next!.
Hi from England. My first job 62 years ago was working for Lister on the con rod line. One of the things I used to have do was stamp the big end numbers.
Sam it purs like a kitten,thanks for taking on the rebuild.nice that the creeks old wash bin helped you out,its good having loyal friends.snookie pa.😊😊😊
She’s probably going to need starting fluid unless she’s already been run and is still good and warm. If you wanted to do something different you could go with an intake grid heater from a 5.9 Cummins or even an old Therm-O-Start screwed into the intake somewhere. I think Fords and some Yanmar imports had them. Pretty cool device that actually burns diesel in the intake to warm it up!
Same carbide scraper set that I purchased 3 years ago. Like you, I never knew I needed it until I tried it.
We have a old D6 with the same style of pistons, had 2 of those aluminum tops come completely apart while the engine was running.
Wow I bet she sounded angry!
You go boys, I never had the balls to start a diesel sitting on the shop floor,
You went to the right place for information on a Cat engine. Toby is the go to for anything Cat ive been a subscriber of Squath 253's channel since he started and he k ows everything Cat.
Back to back Matt and Sam, a great way to put away a half pot of coffee. That engine is a sweet running engine, and I'm sure after a bit of tweeking it won't need the JD ether down grade.
Good job. I see you make sure everything is clean then pound the liners in with a filthy 4x6 dunnage. 😎
😂😂
The nickname @ Cat for the flex hone was "dingle berry brush"
The best sleeve puller i have seen, but not used, is the one Deboss used when they disassembled their Cummins 8.3. Those two little jaws are asking for trouble on a stuck sleeve. The one Deboss used enguaged a much bigger portion of the sleeve, called an EZ pull. They even supplied a gearwrench rachet because they didn't want people using a gun on it. If you check out his "Everything wrong with an 8.3" video the link is in the description, much better design IMO.
Great result for slapping 2 engine into one bro. Enjoyed this video too. Safe travels. Ken.
I worked at a peterbilt dealer in bartonsville for 30 years I was the cat mech and tore down a couple of 1693 s that had sealed power piston liner kits in them with part nos that started out with prefix of wp in their part nos similar to yours.
I really like it when you and Matt double tap us with new videos. Hope you get back to that old truck you started on.
In the late 60s early 70s I was friends with a man that was a mech for a cab co. in Minnesota in the 30s -50s and I remember him talking about Bonelite pistons and how I guess they were the hot thing in those days . Take care 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
About 32,000 miles on a 425 hp Cummins in my motorhome and cavitation ate all the way through one of the sleeves. $26,000 and a major overhaul later I was back on the road.
Get Nalco nalcool additive , that won't happen
Well Done Ole Salt!!!!
Us old CAT Folk appreciate you caring so well for the yeller iron.
I don't move as fast as I use to. I love this old iron.
The breadth of Squatch253’s knowledge is a source of constant amazement.
Nice video Same. An observation though, those dang wire snap rings like to get away and can put some serious hurt on your eyes. Don't take your eyes for granted.
I learned in the late 70's, use a 4.25 expansion plug at bottom of sleeve and pack with dry ice, sleeves should drop right in lol also did that to remove them love your videos 😊
Enjoy all your vids Sam. Love seeing you and Matt working together and sharing your experiences with us common folk. Really like the way you guys dig into the old machines and give them new life. Keep the videos coming and I'll keep watching.
I really want to make the 1,200 mile trek to the steam show to appreciate these accomplishments in person.
Good morning 🌞 great channel
It seems that you starting the Bay city project motivated Matt to get going on the Autocar rebuild.
Brilliant video Sam watching from Edinburgh Scotland UK 🇬🇧 👍
Sweet high speed gasket making Sam !
Sam, when are you going to work on the Mack again. Next time I go to Ohio to visit family I'm going to try to stop by Matt's and your shop. I just love the old Mack trucks with the B61 being my favorite. Use to drive a 1956 H-63 Mack cabover tanker with twin sticks in the Fire Dept back in the 70's. If you ever decide to get rid of her let me know.
Thanks for the update, I like the walk thru of what’s happening and why, enjoy hearing your thoughts on things and taking things apart to see what makes them tick. Appreciate the video.
Awesome and outstanding as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along
Well done Sam a great job look forward to the next one from the UK😀
Xcelent job sam.you deserve an ice cold beer. Have one on me. 😊
One of our Cuda parts washers had the same pump issue you have. Maintenance rebuilt the pump. Both had an expanded removable ring about 5" tall to hold parts on the turntable. We also had perforated "boxes" with lids to hold small parts. Coingrats on gettin the FrankenCat" running!
hello Scrappy Lndustries & it's is Randy and i like yours video is cool & Thanks Scrappy Lndusties & Friends Randy
An afternoon of rebuilding a Cat engine.
Can't think of anything better.
Great job mixing all of the parts to make a good engine.
Nice that it doesn't knock anymore.
Thanks Sam.
Cheers.
I really like your content. Like many I first became aware of you from Matt’s Diesel Creek. I enjoy your enthusiasm for every project and appreciate the expertise you demonstrate. Best wishes for a successful future. I think you might consider an additional revenue stream with merchandise. I know it isn’t what you do but it could be a way to afford new toys. Just a suggestion…keep up the good work!!
Sam you never cease to amaze me on your projects you take on and complete. Will be anxious to see the whole project completes. Great Workl!!!!
Always fun to watch Sam work. Best wishes from the Eastern Shore!

Thank you!
Thank you!
I really enjoyed the video Sam. You do good work. I have spent a lot of time around the D-315/318 s . Never been in a 4600 , so it was a learning experience for me too.
Glad you enjoyed it!
That was lots of fun thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video Sam. Thanks for sharing with us. Have a great day and weekend.
Just use mechanics wire to wire pistons and other light stuff in the washer.
Or a second basket (with a lid) made out of expanded metal.
A shop i worked at had a washer big enough we used it for cleaning 3208Cat and DT466 engine blocks in.
Great video Sam,excellent job and quite a project.thanks for sharing and stay safe.
Outstanding! Great work Sam !

about your parts washer you should place parts like pistons nuts and bolts aka small parts in a basket so that don't get lost inside the washer
