That feeling in your stomach doesn't go away until you run it for a while always hoping the repair worked..
Watching, glad is staying normal so far!
Thats what finally put me out of business after 45 years as an OTR/OO. One truck doing my onwn driving just like you. A truck that kept breaking and costing anywhere from $500 to $2500. Good luck. I pray Gods blessings on you.
You do a very good job at showing what it takes to be and Owner Operator, and the challenges and stress that can come with it.
You gotta love these deliveries in town with all its traffic considerations; not to mention poor informational signage at the shippers!
Since it fluctuates within a range, I would look at the thermostat first. General overheating would have the thermostat open all the time. Also overheating can alter the thermostat. A head gasket or cracked head would eventually expel the coolant.
I'm glad to hear things worked out for the best on the truck.
You have a talent for conveying the stress involved in just getting into and out of a shipper or receiver. These facilities have truck traffic in and out, all day long, you think they could invest in a sign, maybe two?
Have you put the overflow tube from the reservoir into a water bottle with water? See if it’s bubbling out exhaust gases through the overflow tube to check head gasket
Yes and no bubbles which made me feel better!
You must be one of the top professionals in all of this, joy to watch
14:35 all the traffic and the Moffet reminds me of Pac Man!!! Be cool-Be safe!
just subbed i loved watching your pov and listening to you and the truck. Nice truck buddy
Sitting in a reststop, I can feel your stress. I'm a company driver, I can't imagine what it's like to be financially responsible for my trucks repair bills?
Happy to hear it was the thermostats and not a head or head gasket.
Good to hear that was nothing serious!
The way you film is the best, the headcam backing was great.
Awesome video Matt, thanks for sharing👍👍👍
hate when things break despite you being on top of things. but i love every video you put out even though im not even a trucker. much appreciated
Can we just take a second to admire how well that pete leans while loaded going in to the gears. 10/10 Man that is a stack of lumber. 13' 6" of lumber but nice load on the flatbed.
Few things I like about the mechanical engines with the air system.. you don't have to wait since Automatic semi you have to wait since everything is controlled by air. Manual Trans you don't have to wait you can just go on a fly. If you know their is no leak your fine. With automatic just take a bit of time and you just love having the truck yell at you for many things..
Now that is a Friggen load of sticks!!!!!
That was my local Fortinos growing up. So cool to see you deliver there!
I’ve been waiting to see your rig in the flesh, and it finally happened! I saw you once parked on the 407 E/B above the 115 and the other 407 E/B between the 412 & 418. It was surreal!
Although you are from Canada ( A ) lol. We here in the U.S. support you and your channel. Hope you get your truck fixed so you are able to keep trucking.yes of course we have truckers in the U.S. but your adventures across Canada makes our day.
Hello man. I'm from Brazil. Great video
Good stuff & great driving.
......das sieht schon Klasse aus, wenn du das Auto leer durch den Verkehr fährst...... fast wie beim Pkw fahren.....😂👌🤟👍
Hi
Und ansonsten Danke für die entspannte Mitnahme bei deiner Arbeit....😉😉
Gruß von hier.... Matthias
Just use a microfiber cloth for your gauges. Maybe a lil water on it if it's hard to clean. "Giant no trucks sign, too bad" lmao.
I'm glad it wasn't as serious as a head gasket. Stay safe out there!
That;s exactly me at a left turn signal go go go go.
Keep on trucking brother
Keeping your radiator fins clean will also help to keep your re-engineering cool. A lot of dirt and debris gets built up in the air to air and plugs up the air flow. A hose will usually get most of it out. Do it monthly.
Good advice!
Always a good day when callthemall uploads
Thanks for posting these videos.
You did a great job turning around at the place that had all of the lumber.
Hello Matt I am so glad you made this video your first video I really liked the music in it is it your music thankyou for sharing it here from Ontario Canada ( I really in joyed it) have a great weekend 😊😊😊😊
I thought I was the only driver that talks to my GPS?
Glad it was just the thermostats mate
Stay safe out there
"Showing you where to go" is much better than "Telling you where to go" 🙃
Hi Matt, love that ya wave to other semi drivers.!.😂 How often do your STEER TIRES need to be repurchased.?. The things you notice are funny.!".OH YEAH" helps put me at ease. Ty.!.😊 You run a hard game, 😂. Love ya Matt ❤ can ya just try stabilizing the go pro, for times you're having to look back n frth .? I like it when you take the ĜoPro w you on foot too. Glad ya took us to the end of you day. Toot toot😂 grab some chow man 😂
The rapid check uses a reagent to test for exhaust gases in the cooling system. This test indicates leakage between the two systems, which would be bad.
Hi Ya , I think us old fellas (72 ) who have been owner drivers me since 1978 and ex mechanic have done repairs and mods to there trucks need to pass on the knowledge to others . one mod im sure would help is shit trap tanks . these catch all the water from the vast amount of condensation every day dirt too ! under the front of the tank usually the lowest part . I got a 8x6" box 2" deep with a drain plug . drill a hole about 3/4" in the main tank that must drop in the centre of the shit trap to stop flow back . with any movement of the truck at all the tanks will be cleaned 24/7 . all you need to do once a year or so drain into a bucket all the crap . water can do damage to your pump n injectors so you get protection with no down time . your filters will have to clean the microns of dirt found in cloudy diesel . so your filters last longer too . I ran a Cummins 430 and i only changed my filter when I felt her tugging then Ide find a down hill , swap the filter and rubber new filter dry get her rolling 4th drop the clutch 3 seconds she running . over 30yrs of using the shit traps never had problems with pump or injectors ... Good luck with the junk ... Kevin Fullard
Good job boy
Matt did you test those may be possible bad thermostat yourself and compare with new ones, if i have a coolant issue a thermostat will have difficult time opening if that little air lock drain hole gets plugged from a possible small combustion cold leaks until warmed up or from hot spot. If it holds full coolant not boiling about 220 f that is good. i overhaul every size of engine in my farm, lots of discoveries and savings . You seemed so concerned my friend , that's just one example
If the fluid is being blown out it is the thermostat if it boiling out it is a head gasket.
Easy fix! Good on ya!
To be honest if it was you with a cold or flu we would say, man it up. But if its the truck we would say get her to the hospital right away.
Saw you last week east bound and down loaded up and Truckin ! on the 407 at 404
I shop at that fortinos 😄
👍👍
Valve seal leakage can leave oil slip in and cause extra combustion, possible cause for your poping sound.
Thats it, time to upgrade to a newer Cascadia. Lol
What rear end ratio do you have in order to pull that type of weight
Your mileage !! Doesn't seem that long ago it rolled over to zero!
Busy man!!
How’s the Brampton drivers? Lol
If it was your head gasket you would leak coolant into the oil and your oil would become cloudy/milky.
I seen ya on the super expensive road the other day lol recognized the truck from the eastbound side. Looked like you had a load of armour stone going westbound maybe heading for the 401
Yeppers!
Saw you at the vineland scales early last week when i was coming back from new york was good to see you. Hope they didnt bug ya much at vineland. Cheers
AWESOME
#replay Hi
4 days late but was gonna say the thermostat, had the same issue with mine, such a small thing can cause major temp problems lol
Pretty sure I saw you rolling through Hwy 28 to 7 the other day past my work with large stone.
Yep very likely!
Super video (🇨🇿už mi bylo smutno) 👍👏🥰🇨🇿😉
That area around airport road is really confusing especially with the express and collector lanes when your gps is telling you something different to what you are actually seeing. lol!!!
I hate Toronto! Downtown has parts of the road that you can’t drive on now.
Ask me how I know?
A cop was following me and then came up beside me and said you aren’t from here. Of course he knew that from running my plates when he was behind me. He said there are certain parts of the streets you cannot drive on now only the tic is allowed.
You have to really read the overhead signs .
He was nice about it cause it was a $200.00 fine.
just remember matt it identifies as a stop
Hey CTM there is a 1981 359 Peterbilt white for sale it gots 3408 V8 in it
Could try running with the engine fan on manual if that happens again.
What guitar did you use to track that,galloping rhythm?
My newest acquisition, a Kramer Nightswan! Though most the sound is from hand technique and amp settings
How does a water pump work on a semi truck?
Carbon tax? I had to google that🤔
Carbon, the basis for all life on earth, so taxing it will surely give them all the control they desire. This world is an insane asylum
My KW900L the temp just sits at the 200-210*F from the day it left the factory, but yea, if a gauges all of a sudden aren't sitting at there normal spot, red flag.
So I just have a question, how long exactly are you gonna keep your Pete 379? When your it breaks down, what truck are you thinking of getting next?
Planning on keeping this one as my personal truck for as long as I can, just keep rebuilding it. As for other trucks I would consider, the Edison motors diesel electric hybrid is a very intriguing truck!
What are your thoughts about what Edison Motors is building? Would you ever retrofit that peterbilt?
Very interested! Not sure if I would retro fit this truck particularly but definitely another truck once the conversion is available!
it sounds like the water pump
Get on all social media....plz thx
Looks like the paint on the hood is peeling?!
Water pump and thermostat
Just wait for your rebate cheque Junior is a total joke time to go
You're a personable guy. I like watching your vids, traveling, but man put your camera on the mirror n.take. it off of your forehead.!. Plz My buddy won't even watch ya cuz of that. I really like looking at the temp guage n what you're looking for. I hope you'll teach us about some of those other guages n what you're looking for in them.?.!. Thanx for speeding up Long Moffett unloads. Love you tenacity.!. Love your laugh. Stay well Matt . Peace : )

Dude, I've been meaning to ask for a while - I keep thinking your channel name combined with the hair and your profile picture must be a nod to old-days Cliff Burton and/or James Hetfield. Am I on the right track at all with that?
Ah good lead but not quite the origins! My name is Call The Mall. Little 2007 me created it on a whim way back when I started this channel, thinking “you can’t call the mall, you can call the stores within the mall, but you can’t actually call the mall itself.” (Turns out you totally can)... Haha.
@callthemall Ha! Conpletely different then. Not bad 😅
I never hear you talk about your hours of service, never see a log book? I know your tractor is too old for electronic logs, but I never see a log book?
Nope elog hooked up through my phone 🤙 I basically set it and forget it until the end of the day
@@callthemall cool thanks.
Carbon tax, what horseshit. How the fuck does your government expect to have all of their goods delivered after they kill trucking?
They aren't planning to kill only trucking, everything else too, including us
You whine a lot...
Blocked up rad from an old diesel mechanic from Australia
Carbon tax. What bullshit. Time for new leadership.
It's a worldwide agenda, and new "leaders" won't help, they're all in the same club
@@noone3734 Hopefully TRUMP will. I don’t see anybody else with the stones and the political detachment. If the United States leads in rejecting this globalist agenda of destruction, perhaps Canada will dump its worthless “leadership” as well.
