When in doubt, snip it out! This year and, model of Truck is the very first Truck I drove out of Truck Driving School in 1976! I used it locally, and, routinely hauled 60 thousand lbs on the single axel, it never failed me!!
Amazing truck man, I have a special love for White lol I’m a Cleveland native 😂 plus my dad owned a semi international dealership and he had a old wrecker that was a badass White, had a Brockway too lol, thanks for saving her from the scrap pile!!
Not much can beat an old Cummins engine. Take any late model engine of today and throw it out in the field and come back and 20- 25 years and try that. It just won't happen. Great to hear it lives another day
God i looking out to the time that you guys are restoring this old butty! They don't make this kind trucks over here in Europe, bud man i love this one!
Hard to kill an old mechanical injection diesel. Cool old rig. I've never owned a diesel but this has me looking on FB marketplace to see what I can come up with ;)
That 220 Cummins will be alive after we're all dead. We had some working in local single axle tractors up until the early 90's. I don't remember doing anything to them except oil and filters. We only retired them because the cabs got so bad the doors were falling off
Let's watch the movie Duel!!!! She had potential. I hope you find a another 64 White. Hopeful in Texas. To use the donor truck for body parts. And give her. A good sand blast. On the body. Get rid of the cancer. Clean up and paint the motor. And put her back into service. Doing dirt or gravel. She is like the Norfolk and Western 611. She sat for 10 years. And the guys and gals took her. Apart from the blueprints. And made her alive again.
Um, most of the time when a diesel is over full that much, it will cause a run away! The only way to stop the engine from imploding is to choke the intake completely. One of our mechanics did this years ago, and thankfully, he choked it out in time before it blew up!
Sorry to say, but they did have a thermostat. Worked at Cummins Ontario in Toronto Canada and this truck would have only been 12 yrs. old and I worked on many of them.
🏴🇬🇧🏴 Great to hear the ol iron running so freely. Well done 👍🏻. Has the needlenose gone to the breakers yard or will we see it return? 🇬🇧🏴🇬🇧
You had to have the batteries wired wrong because I don't see how any switch can turn 12 volts into 24. If you wire the batteries in series, for 24, i can see how a switch can turn that into 12, but not the other way round.
@@weekendrestoration1498 I think that a series parallell switch would use an extra cable. my first guess would be you wire the batteries in series for 24, then put the extra cable in the middle to tap into the 12. but you can probably google up a proper wiring diagram somewhere.
@@alan6832 we did do a Google search on the way it is supposed to be wired for a 12/24 volt system and thats when we found the 3rd cable that kept arcing so not sure whats going on. I wouldnt think it would be a positive ground on this truck.

Oh that's awesome, Ya know when she fired up 1st go that she WANTED to run and be alive again. Great works guys.
Nice way to start her up. No starter fluid needed
That's awesome can't wait for more

Good stuff! Love it when they come to life that easy.
It's a real strong runner.
I didn't know they made a gasoline engine in them big ones. But then I'm new at all this. Great video. Do more -!!!
It’s ALIVE!!!
Love it I use to drive one like that great memories, Good job keep those videos coming
That’s one pretty sweet engine and not very smoky for ten years out in the field 👍👍

She wants to live!
Man that engine sounds so good!
A little bit of work and that old truck will be ready to go back to work

Thank you.

I Learned to Drive in a 1960 White had an 8 V 53 and a 5 and 4 the Detroit was dropped in aftermarket

Cool!! The ole White lives!! what's next?? Get it moving & driving?
Hopefully getting the clutch figured out and driving around then maybe the teardown begins

Did you crack the oil drain plug to check for any water?
Thats the first thing i do

Merry Christmas USA. How many miles on this old girl? Looks like its got a Perry filter on it
What sort of dollar would you pay for something in this sort of condition?thanks ,marc
Anywhere from 1000 to 3000

We also had an extra battery cable that went to the switch that kept arcing not sure if the switch is shorted

So you tried starting something that has been sitting for x-number of years without going through the wiring? Real smart.🙄
We don't worry about wiring when you fire an engine that was just a cigarette lighter that gave problems nothing else
Anyway,they went through it as the need arose!
