I worked for 45 yrs in the truck repair business. 25 yrs at Consolidated Freightways and 18 at Holland Motor Express. For used Cat parts check with Midwest Diesel Used Parts, Blaine MN. Never a complaint. CF had thousands of 3406 As, Bs, Cs, and Es. As far as I am concerned the 3406B was the best engine I ever encountered. When CF went out of business in 2002, we had 1987 and 1988 3406B's with 2,200,000 miles to 2,400,000 miles with one overhaul at 1,200,000 miles.Fabulous engine.
I know it's too late, but when fixing cracks in Al, you need to drill a hole at the end of the crack to stop it from propagating further, then you can weld it/plate it and it will be strong. But welding on an existing crack will just let the crack expand over time.
Shouldn't you preheat the aluminium to prevent tension caused by differential in temperature and the resulting cracking. Don't take my word for it, I have absolutely no experience with this material but it may make sense.
Anytime you weld aluminum that has been in constant contact with oil you will have problems welding it. Wire wheels smear contamination into the grain structure of the metal. When I am welding cast aluminum with cracks I use carbide rotary file to chamfer the cracks wide and deep. I always tig weld cast aluminum and I slowly run the torch over the crack heating it just enough to slightly melt the surface which seals the surface and reduces contamination.
I could say the same, but they seem to be on a mix of caffeine cocaine and Adderall, WOW they have a lot of energy, I'm just getting old and can't believe how much I used to get done, I need a nap
I grew up on my relatives farms and you have to be self sufficient at everything. I was grateful to grow up with that because I have those abilities and fix everything myself now and I am self sufficient in everything I do. Served me way more than any schooling every would. The answer to your question would be "What do you do for a living?" YES. 😂
We were taught to figure it out, not to call someone for help, and we strive to not disappoint our elders, getting yelled at was possibly worse than a arse kicking, and to this day we still can hardly afford the parts to fix things let alone the labor bill, so you figured it out, I'm afraid for the next generation if they can't Google it with a phone, and have mom dress them and feed them they won't be able to succeed in life, pray for America
Watching y'all work on that CAT makes me miss working on them before I joined the Army. They sent that work to civilian contractors and wouldn't let us do it.
I am not a farmer, but my entire extended family were farmers (all dead or retired now). The farmer's motto: well, she ain't pretty, but she'll get the job done.
Always sounds funny when you call it a motor, when I went for my heavy duty training I was told a motor is electric and an engine was fuel fired. Still seems funny 55 years later I always drill a small hole at each end of the crack to stop it from spreading when heated. The tool that Cummins has is 6 inch lbs, has changed in N T to a different setting method now. Hope you checked the bearings when the pan was off, always something I did. Enjoyed your video, can’t wait till the end result.
Thanks for another great video Scott and Brian and Bob. It was very interesting and informative and enjoyable. Wow. Lots of busy engine work. All of you hang in there. I agree on putting a new oil pan on. The old one did not weld up good at all. Aluminum welding is not easy. Brian is really a good person to have on the team. He did great setting all the valves and such. Piece by piece and step by step you are getting the motor ready. Good show. Extremely anxious to know what this engine is going into. Got to be getting close to you all revealing that. Thanks for everything Welkers. This has been most interesting. You all take care and be safe. Waiting to see the motor finished and put into its new home. The Iowa farm boy. Steve.
There was an update / Service Bulletin on the bellhousing to block oil seepage in the mid 1990s. The Welch plug at the back of the engine got replaced by a plug with an O-ring and then you needed to grind a slot so any seepage could drain to the oil pan.
In the first video I told them about this, also updated bolts for the 1/2 bolt holes. Flywheel also has been updated and depends if you have the old style, and put the new style on. The old bolts are longer, thus the flywheel will not be torqued correctly.
Had a guy try yo weld up a hydraulic oil cooler on our 815 combine. Spent a good part of a day on it doing aluminum welding. ANY kind of contamination in any cracks would just chase. Clean means CLEAN! Not just mostly clean !! They are touchy !
The little F-134 engine I'm rebuilding for my 54 m38a1 jeep willys is like tinker toys compared to pulling this CAT apart. I like watching you guy's build different rigs, it's probably my favorite thing you guy's do on the farm. I struggle to do thing's, but i keep moving to stop the muscle wasting from this MS i have, but at least i love working on machinery, it helps me get through the pain, and the struggle of having no feeling in my left hand, and the weakness that messes up my dexterity. I just thank the Lord for what i have, and his grace and mercy G-d bless.
Yeah, cast steel has the same problem. That's why it is almost impossible for anyone to repair cast housings or cast parts. I remember the one episode where Kurtis (CEE Australia) attempted to repair a cracked wheel loader transfer case housing with spray-welding, did all the pre-heating, did not over-cook it, worked a few hours on it - and then during cooldown the part simply almost cracked in half with a loud bang. Yepp, cast material ist just nasty to work on... 😕
Brings back memories of my 20s. The Cat 3406 was just coming out as a replacement for the 1693. Engine was lighter and more fuel efficient. Simpler as well.
oTrue I don't know THE truck this is going into but I DO know that ya'll were blurring one out in some earlier videos...I would guess it is going into THAT one. I would also guess that THIS video was recorded earlier this spring (March?)...give away was the moving of kitchen cabinets. Also the Big Bud you were working on earlier this spring is clearly apart in the background...plus you have the pro-mechanic now working on this one. Hey I like mechanical mysteries!
Don’t be discouraged on that oil pan, same thing happened on iur 2WS! And replacing that crank damper is a must! Truck will run smoother and good preventative maintenance
i TIG weld alu so i use wirewheel to clean it and then a bit of heat to cook the oils out and then clean with acetone, dont use break clean it has chlorine in it and when heated might release chlorine gas
Maybe I missed it or maybe you're going to do it another episode but I can't believe you tore that all the way down and didn't put rods and mains in it. And if you did I'm sorry for the derogatory comment. Still digging you guys channel!
You go to the end of a crack and then drill a hole to releave the tension in the metal and stop the running. Then plug weld the holes and cracks as needed.
Welding anything cast. The best advice I ever had was plan a max of 1” per hour or it will keep cracking. Don’t let it get hotter than you can hold your hand on. I am not a welder.
Hi Scott, if you watch Western Truck and Tractor Repair, you can pick up some good tips and info. The guy work's on everything old or new, and does a good job explaining thing's. He work's alone, has his own company, but doesn't have every specialized tool, but can show ways around it. He was a submarine mechanic in the early 90's, and then came out doing heavy equipment. I like that if he makes a mistake, he show's it, he's a good guy who does good work. G-d bless.
You turned the engine backwards when finding TDC, also you do not adjust the valves unless you have the Jacobs Brake mounted. Went to a Jacobs Brake factory school in the 80's and that what we was told. Also you could update the Brake and make it from a 3 point stand to a four point stand, change the adjustment screws and make it a 346B + Brake and get 25 HP more braking power.
Has that new damper rubber or silicone filled. I worked with dampers for over 20 years with Simpson Industries in Litchfield Michigan. More people should pay attention to dampers. They do wear out. Good job Scott !!!!
Okay got to ask, what is the value of Brian's truck along with all the tools? Forget his knowledge that is priceless but come on that truck is awesome, I'm surprised Leg-Arms hasn't tried to make off with it.
3406 Cat pans were notorious for cracking under engine vibration which is probably why your dealer had one in stock. It's such a large casting that it was difficult to control the cooling. I think I saw something about them having to modify the alloy they used and slow down the cooling process.
You laugh about pulling the engine for simple tasks. I just did an oil pan on an asphalt roller. Engine has to come out. To do that, the platform, the cooling pack, a large frame brace, and all of the pumps have to come out. The only thing left in the machine was a few valves and hoses. The gasket literally took me 15 minutes to do, but was about 12 hours each way.
2nd truck I drove had a C-12. Was running a lot with my old timer buddies one had a Juiced up B model. Other one had a N-14 that would make his turbo glow. My poor C-12 played hell trying to keep up. Good motor but running heavy in the mountains I’m glad I have a 16 liter now.
The tool for Cummins is 5 inch pounds not foot pounds (5 foot lbs would open the valves and it wouldn't even run) and yes I use it for valves as well as the top-stop injectors, Cummins is the easiest engine I have done an overhead adjustment on yet.
when I did my clutch in my pete, we just slid the clutch onto the trans, bolted the trans up then slid the clutch forward and put the bolts in through the service hole. I was surprised how well it worked.
That'll be one heck of a repower on that manlift you've got it with. Get you up and down way faster. Probably gonna have to bulge the engine cover a bit.
I was just wondering why you didn't replace that front seal if it was leaking or seeping since you already had the engine pan off and were doing so much other work to that engine?
Crack tip opening displacement - did you account for that? A drill hole through the crack at each extremity of the crack would relieve the tension before welding. If not the tension might continue, hopefully the strength of the weld will prevaile. Good luck.
Aí sim é bonito de ver um belo motor que faz muito sucesso no mundo todo e um forte abraço pra vocês aí que Deus abençoe sempre vocês e com seus vídeos excelente 🔝💯
You put 3/8 bolt in hole on right side of rear housing pinning engine either its on 1 or 6 doesn't matter. There is one on left side too but with starter and in truck impossible to get at. If on #1 do intakes 1,2,4 and exh 1,3,5 roll engine 360 degrees and do other half of overhead. Jake brakes if on #1 was 1,3,5 rolled engine 360 degs and set other half. Intakes 0.015 and exh 0.030 jakes lash setting on tag on jake housing. We only pin engine once because we paint mark damper inline with fan belt so you don't have to have help pinning engine again. They do make auto pin its spring loaded but I broke mine bent the pin. ALso see many who leave pinning bolt in and then start the engine. Oh thats fun getting that bolt out after end bent over
Did the top set on our N14 in our versatile this spring. Had a injector go bad so we were already in there. Then new injector only lasted 5 hours 😢. Had to put another in. All good now.
Brian reminds me of dad, he was originally trained as a diesel mechanic when he was in the Army. I helped him rebuild a few motors when I was a youngster
Pro tip, stack the clutch on the transmission first. Then stab the trans onto the engine and bolt it up, then bolt the clutch to the flywheel from the inspection cover on the bottom... works mint and you don't gotta fight the Trans getting stabbed

I don't always weld but, when I do, it's JB Weld. Lol.
😂
Enjoy watching you guys fix your equipment. At 80 I won't be doing any of it but still enjoy watching. You all are very inventive.
I know it's too late, but when fixing cracks in Al, you need to drill a hole at the end of the crack to stop it from propagating further, then you can weld it/plate it and it will be strong. But welding on an existing crack will just let the crack expand over time.
Plus that’s cast aluminum whole different thing
Also preheat the area before welding.
Shouldn't you preheat the aluminium to prevent tension caused by differential in temperature and the resulting cracking. Don't take my word for it, I have absolutely no experience with this material but it may make sense.
What you do is bring it to someone with a tig set-up. A spool gun is a bad choice for cast aluminum. Very bad.
Anytime you weld aluminum that has been in constant contact with oil you will have problems welding it. Wire wheels smear contamination into the grain structure of the metal. When I am welding cast aluminum with cracks I use carbide rotary file to chamfer the cracks wide and deep. I always tig weld cast aluminum and I slowly run the torch over the crack heating it just enough to slightly melt the surface which seals the surface and reduces contamination.
One of life’s greatest little pleasures. Watching the Welker family at work.
I love the 3406b and 3306 cats we have on the farm. As for the 3116..3126...and 3208...not so liked.
When someone ask a Welker what they do for a living, their response should be…Everything!
I could say the same, but they seem to be on a mix of caffeine cocaine and Adderall, WOW they have a lot of energy, I'm just getting old and can't believe how much I used to get done, I need a nap

It is so nice to find a Technician you can absolutely trust, that knows his stuff and is willing to share his knowledge.
Hole drilled at end of cracks plus heating the casting up pre welding. TIG also uses less heat than MIG.

You should get a tig welder
Aluminum welding is amazing but it can be a bear when I used to weld alot I had separate wire brushes and carbide bits and all just for for Aluminum

Enjoy this video have one just like it been thinking about updating could you please elaborate on the turbo and injector upgrades?
great video . Thank you guys
Just a question, why no rod and main bearings while you had it torn down?
The engine had a rebuild in the past 30k miles. They pulled a cap and the bearing looked good.
@@WelkerFarms ok thanks, enjoy and look forward to your videos.
You should consider putting Brian on the payroll. He seems to be a good addition. Very knowledgeable, and a hard worker.

On the Cummins top stop injectors the t-handle torque wrench is 5 inch pounds.
are you certain pretty sure its 7
I thought it was 8 inch pounds
C&C Equipment UTube has a Rotating Engine Stand that he uses on Dozer Engines!
Did you preheat the oil pan? With Aloha...
Preheat the metal before welding.
Simple question.... Did you guys check the rod and main bearings since you have the pan off?
If he wanted someone to stand there and look pretty, he should have invited your wife,,,,,,,,,,,,,

When I find TDC on those 3406 and c15 cats I put a paint pen mark on the damper in line with the fan belts, easier to do a top set in the future

Just curious, did you guys remember the clutch brake? Been there done that not my proudest moment haha😅
Who is the other shop guy/ mechanic does he work for u full time? Definitely been around an engine or two
That's all i used to use for aligning clutches during install on semis. You can whack them with a hammer if you have to.

They do make auto pin its spring loaded but I broke mine bent the pin. ALso see many who leave pinning bolt in and then start the engine. Oh thats fun getting that bolt out after end bent over
Should have just thrown some JB Weld on and a prayer!
The old NH Cummins where inch pounds on the injectors.
Did the top set on our N14 in our versatile this spring. Had a injector go bad so we were already in there. Then new injector only lasted 5 hours 😢. Had to put another in. All good now.
Dang that oil pan is huge. How much oil does a diesel engine hold?
Great video guys.
If you can't find a pan, even a junkyard one. Could you cut that wall out and weld in a new plate.
Always push your welds when possible. Prep work on metal is crucial.
You need a tig for aluminum wire welding aluminum is for rookies
At 2142 behind MR. WELKER is a beast waiting on that engine,me thinks!
Preheating the work prior to welding will help with the cracking
That’s a ton of cracks to chase, toss it and find a better one. Lots of those pans should be available
Brian reminds me of dad, he was originally trained as a diesel mechanic when he was in the Army. I helped him rebuild a few motors when I was a youngster
Pro tip, stack the clutch on the transmission first. Then stab the trans onto the engine and bolt it up, then bolt the clutch to the flywheel from the inspection cover on the bottom... works mint and you don't gotta fight the Trans getting stabbed
As with any cast metal, you have to heat the whole part, weld, and put back in oven and turn the heat down slowly. Or, just go online and find one! 😆
