- Hello guys! I wasn't intending on making a video on this day, but the circumstances changed when one of the tensioner pulleys for the front serpentine belt decided to let loose and eat itself apart! Let's see how far I can go with no A/C, Cooling fan, or Alternator!!

Ahh, the joys of trucking! Never a dull moment. But hey, look at it this way... if you replace enough parts, you wind up with a whole new truck!
Reminds of a song Johnny Cash once sang,
Gee I can’t believe that pulley would go with only 5000 km on the truck 😁
😂😂😅
Good way to start after hitting 2 million kilometers 😂 😂
2 million kilometers isn't even 1,250,000 miles. Sounds like a lot but that's those goofy kilometers
That was nerve wrecking watching you climb that hill!!!
The dramatic tension on that video was top shelf. I need a Tums.
The most important thing is that the extremely difficult and troublesome route ended successfully. Greetings from Poland!
Diesel doesn't really need an alternator, once its started don't stop.
Only if you were running with lights on you'd run the batteries down.
Only on the old engines, new electronic engines need voltage for the computer. Once below about 10 volts systems go down.
That was an actual blockbuster movie😂😂
Tension all the way, and a relief n happy end 😂😂😂😂❤
Oh man that was almost too much like a day of work in one of the old trucks I used to drive!
If that ever happens again, turn your cab heat on full blast. Dissipate some heat
I love the beer out of that little brewery 10w30 🍻
Love your vids man!!
The way your rig sounds on my 7.3 system is pure bliss 👌
Well done 😎👍.
If you're ever up needing parts near shallow lake, Bernards truck and trailer in Owen Sound has always been great to deal with for me
Oh that would have been a good place to call!
Thanks heavens! Glad you got it all fixed up!
What a wonderful time on Wonderland Rd 😬 Thanks for the tour of my old neighborhood, greetings from Germany 👋
Truck sounds awesome dude
Good job boy..
Nice job! Glad you made it
yeh…keep on truckin’…❤ n peace !
Good Chanel . I´m trucker in Brazil
I stop at that Timmies in Harriston all the time. Good tip about raising the hood. Makes anywhere a legal parking spot haha.
Your videos are very good, I'm from Brazil and I've lived here in the USA for 1 month and I'm loving your videos congratulations, directly from Saint Charles - Missori
I was in Washington, DC when I lost my power steering. After two scheduled stops where I was supposed to meet a mechanic who never showed up, I decided to push through to Mississauga, ON. I arrived with arms and shoulders looking like the hulk . . . Good job on you!
Ur asking alot from those batts my friend. Hope u get her fixed soon. Be safe.
I live in elmwood ! Give er a honk next time you pass thru
Keep on trucking
Cool video dude
Lost my Refer? In the middle of Nevada! Pulled over, and a roadside ! Mechanic elderly fella? I explained I blew the serpentain belt? He laughed! No we don't have a Thermo- king belt? I said? Do you have a 60s fan belt? I'll look? Huuumm? I do? I said; how much? He said; 20 bucks! Ok! Now the refer, has a temp recorder? In 25 minutes, I installed, the Caddy belt! Boom! Just sayin! Good Luck! Wing it! God Loves Truckers!😍
ADD more question Marks
You like using question marks don't ya.
Loud pipes save lives. Cheers Merry Christmas
Thought I'd take a second trip on this video, thanks.
Good video! That's why you need zip ties. Not for the fan incl tensioner etc, but for just the alternator it can work to get to the nearest shop...
Put your heat on,it draws heat from the engine.
I'm getting anxiety just watching
Buy TWO, carry one as a spare. Also, in my days on the road, dirt streaks from lug nuts, as seen on your left front, indicates a loose lug nut.
Have a Merry Christmas!
I just had my front wheels balanced and the guy put oil on the threads, been a while since she has a bath too!
Neustadt - Home of a great craft brewery! Also, the birth home of John Diefenbaker.
8:05 lmao I'm 💀
I’m not OTR but run several trucks. Getting parts the last few years has been a nightmare, especially if you’re in a pinch. Rush peterbilt in Colorado you got a 50/50 chance they have it on hand, otherwise your down for days.
Make it up to Bruce County often? I’ll keep my eye out.
cabin heater on that cools engine too
I remember going to school as a child during a heat wave my school bus driver had the heat on because the bus was overheating 😂
Damn! Using heater to cool the engine, talking about desperation!
It's pretty incredible how far you can get without the accessory belt.... you did real good! Glad you made it without major problems.
I towed a truck into Bailey's earlier in the year and just this week picked up a machine in Harriston. One day I'll see you out on the road, am looking forward to it!
Great videos I love your channel. What gearbox do you have, is it 3:08 on the rear? Have a good Christmas and a good year,
Not only would I have bought a new pulley but I would have also bought a new pair of pants after shitting mine from climbing the hill with no fan haha
I know how you feel, sort of! I was driving from the north of Scotland to London in the UK a few years back when the radiator in my old car started to go very wrong - it was the original one! Resorted to winding down all the windows and putting the heater on full on any slight incline. I got home but was sweating, mentally and physically. Seeing it was January I got quite a few strange looks, driving down the motorway with all my windows down! Anyway, it made the trip memorable and I got a new radiator fitted a week or so later!
no alternator or fan is a dangerous game to play, I certainly wouldn't have drove a whole day like that but props for keeping cool during the whole ordeal
Well at least the water pump is internally drivin.
Phew my heart was in my mouth for that trip, but all's well that ends well, I'm pleased it worked out for you, could have been very expensive and a nightmare had it happened in the dark and you needed lights and stuff.
Put a hand on your front tires after driving, and feel if they are hot... can save your life.
Id keep a spare and a belt next time kinda expensive but..
Who says trucking is not a science?👍👍
What's up driver, holy crap I wouldn't have traveled that far without an belt on the engine, you have some big cohonazs LOL. I am glad you made it home safely. Nice little town's you drove through as well. Stay safe out there my friend and keep the videos coming and always travel safely catch you on the next one.
❤🎉🎉🎉 Great
Steering this truck reminds me of my 92 Pontiac. Just hoooooorrible to drive.
Truck on 12V battery set up. Isn't 24V more normal. And it is Diesel. So you are only using the battery for ancillaries and starting. The biggest issue is the cooling fan. Especially loaded. Good job it was cold.
In Canada 12v is still the norm. And yeah the biggest draw on the batteries is definitely the starter, but then lights and ecm are the biggest constant draws
I’ve never been a fan of the serpentine belt set ups. My Cat has the old v belt set up and you can really get by with very little when you toss a belt. Glad you got it handled boss
Better not let the Boston Trucker see your Pete that dirty he’ll have a baby 😅
What type of batteries are you running. Iam amazed you went that far.
Cat batteries, and they were put in like a week beforehand so we were in a good spot haha
Turning your heater on will only kill your batteries quicker
🖐️👏👍🥰
yak yak yak
You couldn’t get me to live in London if you gave me a free house. Traffic is obnoxious.
Replace that harmonic balancer
I'm guessing that the water pump doesn't run off the belt
water pump on big diesels are gear driven by the crank
@@TheRoadhammer379 yeah thought they must be gear driven,
Hello is the truck your or company
My truck, but also my company, so, yes? 😂
How do you find all your jobs? Brokers?
Couple good brokers, couple good customers
What runs the water pump or coolant pump, I know nothing about big rigs other than playing the video game Snow Runner, I'm amazed how long you got with no alternator I got dual battery in my Tacoma makes me think how long i could got, if my belt broke id be stranded tho
My guess is that it's gear driven
Yep water pump is gear driven!
😰
This cant happen in my old rig
pantyhose
pete needs a shower.
Get them both..the idler and the tensioner....wow your cat dealer doesn't have the parts.....total bullshit. Sorry bud everything has gone to shit with parts and service..just replace the tensioner too to avoid other issues.. grab the fan blade and make sure the fan clutch bearings are not getting sloppy. Horton had alot of issues with the bearings. I have done alot where the fan launched into the rad from fan hub failure
Hauling 90,000 lbs with no fan , yikes
