Haha, yeah this is the second time I've seen this. If you like this you should see Eric the Car Guy getting his T5 rebuilt. That transmission guy knows his shit.
That fella rebuilding the pump was as cool as they they get. He could have said piss off leave me alone I'll call you when it's done, that was awesome for him to take the time to explain how the pump works and the process involved rebuilding it.
Bill from Zager's explained that injection pump so well I love to see him talk about and go through more fuel injection systems! He knows what he talking about!
As someone who's been diesel wrenching for 17 years, I learned a lot of stuff from this video. It was SUPER cool to see a deep dive in to injection pumps. Thank you for this!
Yeah, that Bill guy knew what he was talking about. Loved that he said your name when there was something important he wanted you to remember. Good teacher.
That injection pump guy, truly amazing ! his intelligence and passion for his craft really shows I hope he has an apprentice or son to pass that knowledge onto the next generation! I’d also love to hear his opinions on the duramax cp4 pumps lol !
Guys like Bill keep civilization running. Guys who know their stuff, save folks money, do good work...God bless em! Hard to find, but once you do...you're golden.
I am a red seal Mechanic I just found your channel finally somebody that knows what they’re doing and isn’t annoying to watch and I also restore old trucks as well 👍
So good of you to show this pump, how it works, all torn down and an Expert to explain how it functions . I wold never need to know this (im an I.T specialist) but i watch just to learn things and possibly learn a new way to troubleshoot something . I love learning how things work, like a kid i find it fascinating as all of this is fairly new to me... So thank you to you Both for this . Cheers mate.
I don’t know nothing about what you do…but I love watching a guy, do what he does, when he knows what he’s doing, and you obviously know what you’re doing, which is why I keep watching you. Please just keep being you! 👍👍❤️
Not big deal with injection pumps. Biggest problems are governor fly weights they wear and also timing advance fly wheels. Weights are always moving in and out against thrust plate they wear into it. Hanging idle, not smooth rpm or wear very badly and engine can run away. Mechanical engine kept shops busy about every 2 yrs you where in there replacing them. Or like many never fix them and engine runs poorly or runs away (BOOM engine goes)
On one of my tractors, the injection pump was like a watch, a real Jeweled movement. The fuel was what kept the pump running. Just unreal. Injection repair guys, master master builders and repair people.
Miss those KWhopper cab overs. Nice to see one being saved. In this world of disposable everything. Nice to see you taking the time and doing a wake up process. So many throw batteries and a can of ether and crank the hell out of them.
I was a 24 year old kid who grew up mostly in Alabama, who loved to drive a truck. 1986 I picked up a load of air freight at Dulles, straight to South San Francisco airport. I had a backhaul in Compton to load the next day, so I had plenty of time to get there. Old Freightliner with the huge hood, faded grey paint , broke passenger vent window, the steering pulled really hard every time you went past a junkyard. I tooling down i 5, just past the Taft exit when that fuel advance self destructed. It didn't break the front cover of the engine (which was not unusual),but Inland Kenworth couldn't locate the problem until they had charged over 6k in labor, dissembling and testing. I stayed in Bakersfield over 3 weeks ! I still love to drive a truck! Full time local. Thanks for the video! Good memories!
This was a great experience talking about the inner workings of the injection pump. I've always wondered exactly how they work and he sure knows every little detail. This was a brilliant learning experience to talk through all the parts and their purpose. Thanks for his time and willingness to discuss the whole process.
I worked in the shop during the 80's-90's. That "tank" Detroit sounds amazing !! That old Cat does too !! Great to see on of the old gals getting the make-over it deserves.
I have a brand new Kenworth bumper that would look beautiful on that K100. Not one of those aftermarket tinfoil ones this one is a true Kenworth chrome bumper... has never been mounted... purchased in mid-1990s garage kept perfect condition no rust
Having never worked on Diesel, which may be common knowledge to some, I am utterly amazing at the skill set of Deboss and Zager's knowledge of the extreme engineering. I learn so munch more on this and other TH-cam Channels that I will not find on Discovery and other over-the-air stations. Truly impressed! Thank you for sharing. (Born and raised in Texas, but with Canadian blood!)
Oh i LOVED the detailed explanations about the inner workings of the injection pump! Thank you and Zager´s for taking the time to explain in so much detail! I´m serious i LOVED that!
When I was in high school shop the teacher invited somebody in with a giant yellow CAT mounted on a trailer, setup to start and run as a demonstration. When he started it the wind blew and it smoked so much we all had to go running out of the shop to breathe. I've loved diesels ever since. :)
Bill rules! Truly a skilled craftsman and an expert in his field, yet he seems extremely humble and down-to-earth. Thanks for bringing him into this video.
I can almost smell it from here, How exciting ! This brings back the days of my past. Thanks from a Old Man who is still young at heart. Keep living your dream
42 years ago I spent time in a pump room it was very interesting and fun learning how to fix some of it, Thanks Rich for sharing your experience 👀🔨👍😎😎😎😎
Rich that injection pump guy was awesome thank you pump fella. That cleared up a lot of confusion for me. I wanna see more of that guy. He’s good shit! 🤘🏼
You know what? How rewarding it is to know there are people in our tiny world who KNOW what they are doing! Yes, it is a group effort, but the wealth of individuals with knowledge, even blind faith, is absolutely priceless! Thanks guys . . . 🙃
Funny seeing that fuel pump that’s bigger then some modern day cars main motor haha!! Love the Billy Big Rig content, can’t wait to watch part 2 on DGHD after this
My first rig was a 1973 KW cabover 155 inch wheelbase singles sleeper. I soon learned that K-Whopper put in a dammed plywood floor. But I still love cabovers. Of course now that I'm 60 I do appreciate a Freightliner walk in sleeper. LMAO! Although my bones need some wiggle room my heart is still with the Kenworth cabover LOL I love this project thank you guys!
Something about Cabovers has always interested me. I had a fleet of day cabs collected from barns/next to barns from basically what Rich said, people didn't want to drive cab overs anymore (or they were replaced after being ran for a hard life). The only cabovers I have left are a couple Isuzu's (1 smaller box, another slightly larger with a toolbox/flatbed combo) for fun/utility and to satisfy the want to own one. A lot of the trucks I had ran fine and with minimal rust, mostly just mice and shot paint from the sun (Midwest US trucks kept in sheds/barns or cleaned). I kept them until the market/demand for them started to shoot up as projects or for parts, then I cleared out my lot and used the money to cover more than a few of my other much smaller nugget projects. One example being my daily at the moment, a 2011 Mazda5 Van loaded with options, manual gearbox, the turbocharhged awd power/drivetrain out of a MazdaSpeed 6 (rip, someone hit mine...in a parking lot...parked...away from other cars), and custom suspension to make it all run smoothly and hug the road on turns. I've always loved the small Mazda5's, a turbocharged AWD sleeper model was my dream...still rip my sedan, though :(.
bill built my p-pump and its crazy!! took him for a ride in the truck and he loves it. said it was the most high performance pump he had ever built! awesome dude
I love the 3406b cat great engine drinks fuel like I do beer. Also I love how you always have someone explain how a part works how it fails how to fix it and how to rebuild it best channel on TH-cam by far. Wish you had more subscribers to show that but o well
I drove an 86 Ford 9000 that had that engine in it with mechanical pump, it was a day cab. That damn thing would roll out, one day i was bobtailing doing 100 mph and didn't know it lol, i pulled oversized loads and that thing would pull. I loved the hand pump because my fuel gauge didn't work and i ran out of fuel. Yes it drank the fuel.
I only sort of doss about with mechanics really as a hobby but jheez that guy with the diesel pump had me hooked. I see blokes doing the same work with tonnes invested in equipment and shops but he's just invested in time and experience. What a treasure of a bloke - a dying breed unfortunately. Not much keeps me overly interested in TH-cam videos enough for me not to skip but I took in every second of the segment with him. Fair play
What an amazing guy that was rebuilding the injection pump! Love his calm way of sharing and showing you everything... Class act gent with a great skill!
I work on those diesels and I still love the old-school injection unit. That was very perfect calibration job. Real pro in action. The sound is amazing. Kenny by name and Kenny by nature!
It's interesting how different some things are around the world. So US and canadian truckers don't like cabovers anymore but here in europe nearly every truck is a cabover. It's caused by laws, there are maximum lengths of truck and trailer, so cabovers allow more load capacity.
The Double bunk KW's realy looked good. We used a trucker in the early 90's that had a small fleet of them solid black, double bunks with Cats and 9 speeds. He hauled off our logging jobs the long distance pulls across state lines. Great looking trucks. I see one abandoned at an old country store.
Greetings from Poland,its really awesome to watch someone with this knowledge.when most of car maintenance nowadays is change broken part for new one.Amazing job.
I am so very grateful for this channel, I could not begin to tell you all that I learn from watching you and your guests, thank you for all of the time and work you put into this!
I just stumbled upon this project & I LOVE it! An old cabover KW was the FIRST semi truck I ever rode in. It was at that momet that I knew I wanted to be a truck driver when I was old enough to do so. Been driving for 22 years now, & plan to go for another 20 or more still!
I truly appreciate all the information on these mechanical fuel systems. I really don’t care to know anything about the common rail trash that is on all the modern engines
This has to be one of the most interesting things I’ve seen in ages…I know nothing about trucks but you explained the process brilliantly..keep up the good work from Ireland 🇮🇪
From Idaho,my first truck was a K 100. I hauled wheat to market and some times fuel . I drove a A model cat ,a B model C model, and E model. Love cats. Keep up the good work. I will and do watch! Tom
has nothing to do with cheaper. it is all about the way a diesel has double the torque of a big block at 1200rpm... that shove that says: i will get your there!
Cat 3406B & C fuel pump and governor were a beast back in the day.... built them for years adjust FARC then set the rack (power & peak torque) they run for years and years .... Sweet...
Good morning, I do like your idea of priming your oil system...great idea & worthy one, I do remember when Cat went from the mechanical to electronic injection pump....not much of a COE guy, but you did buy a nice KW...I always liked the KW interiors, in the late 1980's I started working at a Pete dealer in Michigan for about 10 years, then went to a Western Star dealer...then the back surgeries started...you know what happened then...career change...sold all of my "big" tools, had a couple antique trucks, they went too...now I have a worse hobby...Hot Rods.....be safe, God Bless!!!!
Indiana here and the Rust is REAL! I long to visit places like Arizona to find a good solid bodied OBS short bed C1500 to build another custom. I've always admired these Cab Over trucks and when they're all done up, nothing looks sharper. Cheers! Zip~

Fantastic news!
Didn't know you had a second channel. Subbed!!
Double bonus!
#teamseas.........
Good to see the old gal getting a new lease on life
Theres nothing i enjoy more than listening to someone explain how stuff works, when they actually know whats up
People that explain things in simple terms are the only people that actually know how they work - that guy is a PRO!
N😅
Haha, yeah this is the second time I've seen this. If you like this you should see Eric the Car Guy getting his T5 rebuilt. That transmission guy knows his shit.

One of the best engines ever made, I’ve worked on and rebuilt these pumps many times.
People can be so short sometimes
We're all starving for human interaction after Covid.
No, he seems like a very laid back dude for sure. I would love to apprentice with him.
Its so cool to see someone truly knowledgeable talking about his craft.
I really liked listening to this guy talk about his craft
@@XUncleBossX lots of parts in that pump...that's why you don't take it apart ..lol.
I totally agree.
Long live mechanical injection, I have leaned something today!
@@XUncleBossX y tu 6yxg
The segment with Bill at Zager was awesome. He really knows his stuff and explains it very well.
Totally agree! What a craftsman Bill is. It was fun to learn about these pumps and marvel at the engineering that goes into these things.
Bill from Zager's explained that injection pump so well I love to see him talk about and go through more fuel injection systems! He knows what he talking about!
I agree he had a great explanation. Very knowledgeable.
Would yall put a link to said videos.... or do I just search zagers
Explains a very complex engine part so well that you understand it clearly the first time. Well done.
My friends late father worked for Cat for years doing pump and injector work he finally retired years ago, it made me think about him.
@@timcanizares5240 it's in the middle of this video when they rebuild the injection pump.
As someone who's been diesel wrenching for 17 years, I learned a lot of stuff from this video. It was SUPER cool to see a deep dive in to injection pumps. Thank you for this!
The injection pump explanation was brilliant...thank you.😀
Yeah, that Bill guy knew what he was talking about. Loved that he said your name when there was something important he wanted you to remember. Good teacher.
I think it’s awesome you took the injector pump it to a small business to get fixed. Those guys are the best.
I'm a diesel master tech. This guy explains these old pumps the best. I've never heard a pump explained this well.
I was looking at that truck on Kijiji like 2 months ago! Apparently Rich bought it before I could. Can’t wait to see it fixed up!
That injection pump guy, truly amazing ! his intelligence and passion for his craft really shows I hope he has an apprentice or son to pass that knowledge onto the next generation! I’d also love to hear his opinions on the duramax cp4 pumps lol !

So true. My general mechanic of over 30 years retired, I miss him.
I am a red seal Mechanic I just found your channel finally somebody that knows what they’re doing and isn’t annoying to watch and I also restore old trucks as well 👍
Do you have to disconnect the linkages like the steering, shifter, throttle, etc...when jacking up the cab on an old cabover like this?
I really like it when he goes into details about stuff. I liked the rebuild of the fuel pump. That's really cool.
So good of you to show this pump, how it works, all torn down and an Expert to explain how it functions .

I have always wondered why no one rebuilds their own injector pumps, this explains it.
Not big deal with injection pumps. Biggest problems are governor fly weights they wear and also timing advance fly wheels. Weights are always moving in and out against thrust plate they wear into it. Hanging idle, not smooth rpm or wear very badly and engine can run away. Mechanical engine kept shops busy about every 2 yrs you where in there replacing them.

I learned a lot in this video. DEBOSS wire to prevent you from a adjusting must work! I love busting chops. Kudos.

the little things these people know are what make them good mechanics
I love how you showed us probably a month in minutes. Nice video. Now I want a cab over like this. (My late dad drove this truck for a while)
I can almost smell it from here, How exciting ! This brings back the days of my past. Thanks from a Old Man who is still young at heart. Keep living your dream
The passion for perfection and the explanation related to the art of rebuilding these pumps is second to none 👌
Always nice to see an expert just talking about things with no drama, over acting or loud music, that bloke from zagar really knows his stuff
holy smokes! Bill is cool lad was really nice to listen him explaining, brilliant stuff!
Bill was awesome. What a knowledgeable, cool dude. Type of guy I could listen to for hours.
This guy is amazing. Love to see people share knowledge
I like the way you fix those old truck l have a passion for them

It's so great to hear from experts.

That's actually a brilliant idea using the pressure accumulator to pre-lube the engine. The bigger ones make pretty good fire pits.

I had a fleet of day cabs collected from barns/next to barns from basically what Rich said, people didn't want to drive cab overs anymore (or they were replaced after being ran for a hard life).

One example being my daily at the moment, a 2011 Mazda5 Van loaded with options, manual gearbox, the turbocharhged awd power/drivetrain out of a MazdaSpeed 6 (rip, someone hit mine...in a parking lot...parked...away from other cars), and custom suspension to make it all run smoothly and hug the road on turns. I've always loved the small Mazda5's, a turbocharged AWD sleeper model was my dream...still rip my sedan, though :(.

Thanks Sandy!
I'm full of respect for your knowledge
I feel humbled watching this dude work on this. Just one question, Is anything Deboss proof?
The injection pump portion had me glued! This man is a dying breed! We should start save the mechanicals movement!
Daaaamn. That camshaft though. On a fuel pump. 😲
12 valve cummins has a smaller version of this pump
The amount of complex parts and engineering that went into creating this and any engine is unbelievably remarkable.
If Bill had a youtube channel about tearing fuel pumps and turbos apart to see how they failed, then rebuild them I would 100% watch.
If Bill had a TH-cam channel, he'd never get any work done and he'd go broke.
What an amazing guy that was rebuilding the injection pump! Love his calm way of sharing and showing you everything... Class act gent with a great skill!

Rich's wife says: "Rich, I want you to get rid of that tank. Do it soon".
Rich hears: "Rich, I want you to buy a truck. Make it two".
I bought a K100 new in 78 with a KT400 and 13 speed Eaton Roadranger and ran it for about 1.2 milion miles. I loved that truck.
It's interesting how different some things are around the world.
So US and canadian truckers don't like cabovers anymore but here in europe nearly every truck is a cabover.
It's caused by laws, there are maximum lengths of truck and trailer, so cabovers allow more load capacity.
Road construction is worlds ahead as well they're not going as far per day so comfort is less of an issue
Cant compare those POS US cabovers to european ones. American know nothing about driver comfort or ergonomics.
@@V8Lenny so europeans are so soft they had to design a truck fit for a princess?
@@16vSciroccoboi yes and that needs knowledge american manufacturers dont have.
@@V8Lenny The American trucks inside are huge by comparison, especially the high roof condo sleeper versions.
The Double bunk KW's realy looked good. We used a trucker in the early 90's that had a small fleet of them solid black, double bunks with Cats and 9 speeds. He hauled off our logging jobs the long distance pulls across state lines. Great looking trucks. I see one abandoned at an old country store.
I hear what Zager is saying and it sounds like, "Its cost so much because it takes me fucking hours."
Greetings from Poland,its really awesome to watch someone with this knowledge.when most of car maintenance nowadays is change broken part for new one.Amazing job.
Great episode, love these old truck brings back a lot of memories as kid and being around them all the time. Looking forward to more on this gem.👍🏻👍🏻
I am so very grateful for this channel, I could not begin to tell you all that I learn from watching you and your guests, thank you for all of the time and work you put into this!
When you pulled off the Kenworth with the tank and it rolled right into....that's good enough reason not to sell the tank :D

Hopefully that guy can find an apprentice he has so much day knowledge like the George Jones song says "Who's gonna fill their shoes"
Diesel Guys: "diesels are WAY simpler than gassers" Me: "Wut?"
When it is all working.
has nothing to do with cheaper. it is all about the way a diesel has double the torque of a big block at 1200rpm... that shove that says: i will get your there!

Indiana here and the Rust is REAL! I long to visit places like Arizona to find a good solid bodied OBS short bed C1500 to build another custom. I've always admired these Cab Over trucks and when they're all done up, nothing looks sharper. Cheers! Zip~
More love for the guy(Billy?) talking about the injection pump. He was fantastic at explaining everything!
