One thing you need to do is if it is going to be sitting keep the tanks as full as you can it will prevent the sweating in the tanks that create water in the fuel
Years ago, we used to mix kerosene with #2 furnace oil to stop gelling it does smell different. Furnace oil was quite a bit cheaper than premier diesel back int 70s and 80s. To be safe I would use that fuel to start brush fires.
Glad you got the Creeper together finally and it's working out. Just sent you some Power Service Diesel treatment for Christmas and they said they delivered it today at the front door or on the front porch. Wasn't sure what to get you for Christmas, so got something practical I know you will, use. Merry Christmas Chris. Try and take it easy some Bud and get some rest. Seems like you are over doing it and wearing yourself out, especially since they were unsure what is wrong. I'm just hoping it's nothing serious and just fatigue. Have a great Christmas with your daughter, girlfriend, Yenko, and Jazzy.
Something to think about. That truck was built to run High Sulfer Diesel, not modern (crappier) ULSD. You lose lubricity running modern diesel. Might want to think about running a fuel additive.
Every injection system built pre 1997 should be adding a high quality lubricant to prevent wear but that had no bearing on his issue here that was water in the fuel likely caused by the aging ethanol. After it's been sitting about 3 months the ethanol in your fuel starts breaking down creating water.
Fuel tanks sweat with temp changes and accumulate water over time. Thats why there are water catches in one or two spots through out the fuel systems on trucks. That way water can be drained off. Its usually best to keep the tanks full especially in the winter colder months the tanks will build up a frost inside and when it warms up that frost melts and becomes water inside the tanks. Thats likely where your water came from. And having been sitting about a year now the trucks old fuel may have a bit of a funky smell to it kinda like kerosine it'll still burn but being a freshly rebuilt engine you may not wanna run it lol
Does the kenworth have a fuel heater? Our Pete had an in tank fuel warmer that decided to dump a few gallons of coolant in the fuel. Luckily the 3406 cat started stumbling and I shut it off before any damage
@@kermjohnson4004considering he runs out of breath just pulling on wrenches in the shop and then getting up and down from a piece of equipment a couple times he's definitely got something going on with his cardiac system. Bet if he got his cholesterol checked his LDL cholesterol is so high he should already have had a heart attack. Way too much fast food (and gas station foid ) in his diet. If you go back and look at his videos from 3 years ago he's way heavier than he was.
You work so hard take a break I know it's hard I'm 71 still work full time but now and then my body tells me take a rest for a few days take care of yourself and take a break or at least don't work so many long hours
Hello Chris get to Dr. Get your blood work done figure out whats going on. You should put fuel conditioner in truck and tractors combine today's fuel does not have the lubricant the older injector pumps needs. Have a good day.
The 2 times that you've told us that your hands were numb and not feeling good, you've been crawling under the Kenworth Truck. Maybe there's something on or under the truck that is causing the problem. Just a thought. Been praying for your good health and Merry Christmas, Brother.
Theres an additive called fuel power. You find it in truck stops. Its kinda pricey, but it takes care of water in fuel like no bodys buisness. I got bad fuel last winter (my own stupidity getting CHEAP fuel from a closing store, instantly realized and regretted as i pulled out the parking lot). Truck wouldnt start, dumped a whole bottle in let it sit for 30...fired up an ran like a top. Buddy told me about it an I took his word, and that made a believer out of me. Also go get second opinions, never hurts. Not saying your doc is bad, but maybe they missed something.
I run stanadyne additve in my freightliner.. Buy it by the case. My mechanic recommended it to me.I guess even newer diesel pickups should have additives brcause low sulfur fuel doesn't lubricate as well.
Exactly. The same as when he bought two tractors when he first came there he didn't need both those tractors he needed one 110hp mfwd with a loader. And he coulda bought something in a different color for squat more than that 2755 cost because used Deere are overpriced. Then he could have had most of the money that he put into that 4640 to put into something that would have made him money every day. He will learn eventually that equipment and trucks are a liability not an asset.

Could have when you open fuel tanks when there is high humidity and don't fill them full then start sweating more had things set longer than that with no problems
Keeping your fuel tanks clean and having good is very important. In very cold weather like-30 below you can run up to 10% gas to help with gelling.having worked in 40-60 below zero we had a case of anti gel in every piece of equipment. You need to keep the fuel water free,just my two cents worth.merry Christmas
Can't keep your fuel clean that truck sat around for a long time with fuel in the tank and you'd be guaranteed because of the 10% ethanol that's in it that caused it to make water. Ethanol after it's been sitting any more than about 3 months starts to break back down and sugar
@@robertquast9684ethanol is 100% blended into every bit of diesel fuel you buy. When they tried to jack it up to 15% ethanol from 10% ,10 or 15 years ago if you parked a tractor in a shed for the winter the ethanol would literally grow algae and the algae would plug your fuel system as soon as you tried to run the tractor in the spring. So they dropped it back down to 10% is the maximum allowed of ethanol in any fuel.
Just greasing and routine maintance on all ur equipment lota work.KNOW U DONT WANT TO but slow down a bit and enjoy the holidays and all uve accomplished.
For the new tax year, remember to remove any video or pictures of the old barn you tore down. IRS could watch, see it, Oil pump jack up your exhaust pipe demanding money for the building that's still there. Oh before I forget, Merry Christmas and Happry New Year!!
Chris is sounds like you have anxiety I went there that for years it shuts your body down totally and it's just like a heart attack scares the crap out of you they just come out of the blue... You could have put some motor oil in your fuel to put lubricant in the fuel... The last Cummins 400 big Cam 4 I had rebuilt was at Cummins in Hubbard Ohio and they put that baby on the duyno and best the dog shit out of it and I asked why do that and they said if it's going to blow up they want it right there that dyno works that truck harder then any road test it was smoking like a freight train they found the electric fan air valve wasn't working I said I never got it hot he said we are putting a whole lot more pull then I could on the road.. Cummins always told us to fill the fuel filter with oil when changing oil. Good luck you have a bulletproof engine there are I'm jealous as hell 💪💪💪💪😎
Those new calves aren't weined if there balling for 3 days . They where straight of the cow . You have to put your health first i know first hand it's frustrating with doctors not getting after it to tell you what's wrong .
U NEED to get ur self in and do a complete check on ur body!!!!! Plz!!!! Trust me!!!!! Im having issues now since i have not taking care of myself!!!!!
I bet someone that doesn’t like you dumped gas or water in it while it was sitting at Isaais. I remember you saying you had a few people a while back that weren’t to fond of you making something of yourself
Do you have any kind of medical issues that run in your family that might be the cause of your problems ? Have your brother check with your mother if you are still not on speaking terms . You need to get this figured out before you end up dead !
If it were me I’d change the diffs and tranny so you will know when it needs changing again. Leave nothing to chance. No sense shooting yourself in the foot any more than you already have. Have a Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
Makes me wonder if that’s why the first engine got destroyed ? I would be talking to the guy you bought it from and sending him the bills. That’s not cool
@@johnwudarcki9315Chris is definitely put fuel in it he took it on a road trip quite a ways away from home when shit the bed. These two things are not related.
Man you better slow down you are killing your self Duffy you need to put the camera down for a couple weeks you need to rest throw Christmas if you dont there wont be no 2025 haverst ever one of your subs wont mind if there wont be a video for a couple weeks come on Duffy you need to take it easy prayers for you and your family i mean the dogs and the cows and your girlfriend. in tell you get better
It's not like his plan is to have them all going lmao. If he was going to keep those three old clunkers on the road all at the same time he'd need a full-time mechanic.
You show a lot of signs of being a diabetic. I think you need to go see a different doctor or you buy one of them cheap test to check your sugar yourself and do it throughout the day because I’m diabetic and 98% of the science that I have.
Gas is anti-lubrication, that shit done washed ALL the bearings out, the truck, well, she's totally dicked big time. Grandpa always used gas and a paintbrush to degrease things... worked super well but I hate smelling like gas...
Nope because there's no gas in it he's smelling kerosene which is used to winterize fuel. Can you see all the water in the container they caught the fuel in. Diesel with 10% ethanol after it's about 3 months old starts making water every single day it doesn't matter where your truck is parked can be in the shade in the sun makes no difference. Is the ethanol begins its slow gradual process of breaking down in the water and sugar you're going to water
Take care of your self remenber when you were told light duty do light duty and check with your doctor we only have one Chris and you have a girl friend and a baby and a farm
It doesn't have gas in it he's literally smelling the kerosene that's used to winterize the fuel to prevent gelling. I mean I could clearly see the water in the container that caught some fuel in he's got water in that fuel because it's got ethanol in it and the ethanol starts to create its own water after a few months and that fuels been in the truck now for over a year
Get some REST. you're wearing yourself out. All the best from NZ Have a great Xmas.
Chris, take care of yourself as best you can. You are one becoming my daily channel.
Great to know your partner is around to keep an eye on you. Sometimes you worry me. Thanks for being so honest and for sharing.
You said at one point that you were filthy as if that is the first time. But you keep on going that is what I like.
Chris take care of yourself, you have come so far to give it all up because you didn't take time for yourself to heal.
Check your blood sugar Chris..similar things happen to me and sure enough my blood sugar was outta whack..feel better..
Well take care of yourself hope the doctor figures out something with you keep doing what you're doing and I'll keep watching I'm praying for you 🙏🙏
Nice to see the truck back in action.👍
I have you in prayer for complete good health 🙏🙏🙏
One thing you need to do is if it is going to be sitting keep the tanks as full as you can it will prevent the sweating in the tanks that create water in the fuel
Keep up the great work chris and u should restore the 7520 this winter

You should see an 806-roll coal on furnace oil lol
Correct kerosene and furnace oil is used to winterize fuel by fuel suppliers to keep the diesel from gelling in the cold.
Yes, both times you drove the truck. Could it be exhaust fumes.
Hello Gate Boss! LOL
Hope to see you back on the channel soon.

Is it worth putting a intercooler on the kw?????? And would you
Did you have all injectors checked? Being that one was scored.
Praying for you🙏🙏🙏
Left arm, pain and nausea usually means heart condition. Have a stress test done.
Heart issues and check for diabetes. Have a c scan with contrast too. Your a walking time bomb. This is not normal
