    As a retired Trucker, back in the day we use to call a power washer,.....a Steam Jennie. A suggestion for you. The next time you install double belts on the pulley, stagger the printed section to prevent a break in the belt where they are fused. This way if a belt snaps you still have a functional belt. I'm just say'n. Love the videos on Jolley Green....keep 'em coming.

    Thing i like most here is that you're fixing it mechanically first, and then will take a look on aesthetics. I would do the same as well, because first rule is to get this truck being healthy and usable everyday, and then make it beautiful! your engine is looking very beautiful and fresh with new parts and paint, i love it. I would work on the bottom of the cabin with some new insulation panels. Don't forget to take apart your turbo and make a revision of it. Thanks for the video, very well done. Cheers from Italy!

    @psavel274 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Smart idea replacing the water pump while you were in there to say the least. It needs to be done. Cummins pumps are one of the easiest to change that I've done. The composite (plastic impeller) pumps are known time bombs in basically any vehicle equipped with them. The impeller can 'delaminate' off the shaft and the shaft will just free wheel without the impeller spinning. I've also seen them come loose enough where the car will start to run hotter than normal at idle until you blip the throttle. That's where it breaks loose just enough to keep it from freewheeling on the shaft until you give it some rpm's. They also get jammed in there, and sometimes break apart sending chunks of plastic all over in there. To answer your question, no, that amount of play in the bearings is NOT normal. Its shot and ready to be replaced no doubt. It comes with accelerated wear due to the forces of the fan clutch assembly which can also be timebombs depending on its condition/ balanced the blades/ proximity to the radiator/ stifness of engine mounts, etc. They can explode due to the reasons and cause a lot of damage. Denting hoods, punching holes in the rad/ condenser, etc. I have seen it A LOT over the years. Most of the aftermarket, and probably the 'updated/ superceded' OEM Cummins pump most likely is metal. Lots of pumps have sloppy castings and leftover flash material. It isn't uncommon at all to see that type of shit. At least from what I've seen in almost 25 years of turning wrenches they are like that more than they should be. This truck is pretty sweet bro, thanks for sharing this video.

    small tip as someone coming from (UI) design: paint the handles of any valves a different colour than the engine, like for instance black or red. This will make it far easier to find the valves should you need to access them and also will give you better orientation around the engine room.

    Cerakote for the win on your exhaust system. Sure you can go the HPC route, but Cerakote provides a wider range of colours. I recommend Cerakote Satin Aluminum as your standard "go to" colour. But.... and this is a big but.... you have to pull your items off the vehicle and you have to do the job right. That means vapour blasting, followed by pre coat heating to get rid of oils in the metal, followed by coat application, followed by cooking in an oven. I've used Cerakote extenisvely on several motorcycle restorations and it's fantastic.

    • @ivanjulian2532
      @ivanjulian2532 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      If you can afford it (you certainly have the room) invest in a vapour blasting machine plus an old used bakery oven (something big enough to put larger truck parts in it). And then do all the Cerakote work yourself. Every day you'll look at your truck and you'll think to yourself... "Yes, I can pull you off and I can Cerakote you too!" LOL

    The BC IV water pump was unique to the BC IV. Low Flow cooling included the radiator, T stat housing, Water pump and IIRC the block and heads. Low Flow cooling wasn't a terrible system, just had to be maintain better than the other system.
    That 3/8 hole you see on the bottom of the housing is for a check valve, it's missing. When you spin off the filter it would stop the flow of coolant. When you install the new filter it would open back up.
    The 1/8 hole was for one of the t stat housings, it's been a long time but I think it was for the front t stat. We had a special fixture to drill the hole. The hole allowed coolant to flow to the t stat sensor allowing it to open sooner. If you look from the top down the hole would be angled at about 25 degrees toward the block. We drilled the hole for the t stat campaign upgrading the original plastic t stats to brass and the updated upper t stat housing. The improved upper t stat housing had a square edge and the original was rounded. We had to check the brass ring depth as well.

      @NOT_FOR_HIRE  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I figured I'd give this system a try. It could last forever for me vs someone working it full time. I did see the threads where the check valve would go and I was curious why they were there. Thanks for all the information I feel a little more confident running it now.

    Just a note. Most of the hoses have reusable end fittings. So if they are in good condition the hose only can be replaced. A big saving.

    I think the RTV on that water pump gasket makes good sense with that extra hole that weakens the gasket.

    The hose in the back where you gotta shorter elbo going around that pole thingy so it wont rub… take a old garden hose maybe cut it about 4” and splice it length ways and slide it on the hose and use it as a barrier between the two so it will rub on that if it will

      Or can the cylindrical thing its attached to be slid away to allow clearance. Seems to be only secured by large hose clamps.

    Can you change out the hand pump hydraulic cab lift for one that they use on an RV for the slide outs? They are a 12 volt hydraulic pump that makes the slides go in and out. Seeing that you get old RV's maybe you could retro fit one off the RV to the Jolly Green.

      Thats a good idea but once the truck is done I shouldn't really have to lift it up unless I'm doing maintenance.

      @@NOT_FOR_HIRE theres cab lift pumps that use air pressure to operate . it just ties into your air system you can buy that instead of hand pumping it
