Caterpillar D6C Cold Start after new head, turbo, and other major engine work | Episode 6
มุมมอง 10K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Today we finally try starting up Debbie Dozer - my 1960's Caterpillar D6C Dozer. I go through the steps I took installing the head, turbo, water pump, and all the other new parts I got for it.

Today we check on hydraulic filters and fuel filters, move some hoses around, and try to find where our engine barring tool goes. We also get a brand new head in and discuss future plans on how I want to proceed with repairs.

I wanted to build a pond, but my little Kubota L3901 wasn't getting it done in a timely manner. So I went to the auction site and bought a big Cat dozer. We take a peek at it and go over some of the problems with it. Some wrenching on the head and discuss our plans with it.

    Love viewing your webcam of the cats. Have you seen the commercial where Donald Trump is talking about people eating cats? We think it's cruel to rescues like yours.

    I rebuilt the Ford C6 in my van after two of them built by local shops with good reputations grenaded. The C6 is considered to be an easy one to rebuild but for someone with no training and never been inside one it was daunting. I bought a book and a CD. I built my own specialty tools. About 10,000 miles on that tranny now and it has been perfect.

    Why would you heat the bolt? That makes it expand and harder to remove. If you could heat the surrounding metal fast enough, that would help...but you can't since it's a massive block of steel.

  • @justinf1343

    Thanks for sharing. Keeping my eye out for a cheap one, but people on ebay have cottoned on and are selling non runners for stupid money.

    • @DMIDoes
      @DMIDoes 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Agreed. Check for local estate sales/auctions in your area. That's where I usually find good deals. If you can get out to an auction thats 45-60 miles from a major city, I think you'll find some good deals

    Sometimes if you spray starting fluid in the spark plug hole you can get them to fire off, even if there are carb problems. Also, if you clean them up better and get them in good working order you can get a little more money for them

    Would you be so kind as to share the partnumbers of the repair kit? I am having difficulties getting the correct kit for the exact same pump you done on this video. Here in South Africa they work on CAT part numbers but no one can give me the part numbers.

    • @DMIDoes
      @DMIDoes ปีที่แล้ว

      The part number I used was 2S7208, but make sure it matches your pump. I recommend getting a parts book for your serial number if you can find one

    • @wildlifea1
      @wildlifea1 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you for that. Yes my pump is exactly same as yours. Can you perhaps give me all the different part numbers of the seals etc? We really struggling to get all the parts down here in SA.

    • @wildlifea1
      @wildlifea1 ปีที่แล้ว

      What parts manual are you using? What is your machines serial number? Mine is 76A1376. And I dont even know if this is the correct serial number punched on the block.

    • @wildlifea1
      @wildlifea1 ปีที่แล้ว

      I just bought a manual online but not sure if its the correct manual. Please help so I can buy the correct manual.

    • @DMIDoes
      @DMIDoes ปีที่แล้ว

      Mine is a 74A1792. I think the difference is yours would be a power shift transmission. I'm using an official parts manual like this www.ebay.com/itm/192753341078

  • @tlm3574
    @tlm3574 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'd forget the batterys. Solid concrete blocks work well. A small rubber mat or kitchen carpet scrap will make the noise less and keep the blocks from banging around. Can you weld an angle brace to each side to stiffen up the hitch(and aerator). Good welder. Fun to watch.

  • @kcbimmer1971
    @kcbimmer1971 ปีที่แล้ว

    Did you pre lube the new turbo? I have a 64 D6C and am replacing the turbo - I know on cars you need to pre lube. Makes sense on these too - but I'm new to the game. Also it looked like a lot of exhaust blow-by at the turbo on start...?

    • @DMIDoes
      @DMIDoes ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, I did pre-lube - the new turbo came with a big syringe and a special oil to inject into it before installing. Yes, she smokes like an old diesel at first start but clears up pretty quick.

    The housing has a grease relief fitting and a grease fitting if I remember correctly, So the lip of the bottom seal would face the top if looking down, then I put the water seal in before putting the shaft and bearing assembly in! Try not to touch the carbon seal or the steal seal surface with your fingers, add a drop of oil on the ring, shining side toward the carbon, and install it, give it a twist to spreed the oil! The top cover plate the seal should face the bearings, unless you do not have a relief fitting then it should face out, when you grease the pump the over grease should then come out the relief fitting or come out the outer seal! If you put the bottom seal in with the lip down it will fill the weep hole with grease over time!

    Regarding cat bolts, they are stronger and better than a typical grade 8 bolt. The heads are thicker, and have better thread engagement. They are well worth cleaning up with a wire brush to reuse. Replacements from cat are much higher price than hardware store grade8, to the point that counterfeits are showing up...
