@@deezelfairy I know, I was just hoping that the rocker was all I needed to change, in my mind I knew I would have to do more than change the rocker, worth trying the easy stuff first before pulling the engine, or the head 🤞
Not the result we waited for, but now, it's no looking back and start removing and tearing that engine. Best of luck. You can do it Paul! Stay positive!
Paul ive just been overhauling my 1987, new head, crank, and what a misson. Nearly there now, feel for you. But one thing, do share rebuild, because no real rebuilds on youtube 😢
R.I.P Allan , Lorry Driver sadly missed . I did a phaser engine in a 1989 3cx 2 years ago new lliners pistons rings and bearings ect in frame Paul no probs I made a liner puller I ccould lend you it mate 👍
Nick .. Allan was a great man and helped me any time I needed him. He will indeed be sadly missed R.I.P Allan 🙏 I will keep you in mind should I need any help with the trusty SiteMaster in the future - thank you very much! 👌👍
A sad video, paul I knew there was a problem with it probably not the outcome you were hoping for, but one thing for sure is if you rebuild the engine, you know it's going to be right I'm looking forward to seeing what happens next with the mighty perkins keep up the excellent work pal 👍 😊
Thank you Benny .. yes very sad 😥 I was hoping for the best or maybe an easy fix, but this is going to be far from easy, we need to think of a plan of what to do next with our trusty 3CX 💪
Big shame Hartley! That engine was a sweet running Perkins 1004-4T. It will have to come out and be investigated. Second engine this year Iv had to pull - thinking back eariler in the year when we pulled the V8 out of the Range Rover! 🙄👍
Ah that’s a pain .. I thought you might get away with just the rocker … on the up side the Perkins 1000 series is a fairly simple beast .. Might be time to pull her down and check the motor …
@ I’m changing the water pump tomorrow on my P8 with the Perkins 1000 series.. I’m Hoping and praying the 2 bolts that go into the timing case don’t snap ..
The P8 maybe easier to change than the P7. When I changed the water pump on mine, I ended up pulling out the radiator - not a two minute job. Good luck and hope all goes well 👍
@@PSExcavationsLLC Water pump went well and thankfully being carful managed to get the bolts out without snapping any .. Made such good time even got the dipper ram re sealed also …
Thats is a good one to check, I checked the crankcase breather and it was clear, I go under the machine regularly to check things under there, good time to grease the drive shafts too! 👍
Great video thanks
My man, a rocker doesnt break for no reason.

Its not the result I wanted - thats for sort. But we have to move forward with these things, its just which direction we move now ... 🙄

Thats a shame it wasnt a simple fix for u
Service Ex Engine !!
My 3cx was spiting oil , Turned out that the crankase vent tube was blocked and the oil was coming out of the turbo .
Thats is a good one to check, I checked the crankcase breather and it was clear, I go under the machine regularly to check things under there, good time to grease the drive shafts too! 👍
