      Bearing shells always go into the rod and cap DRY, lube the inside of the bearing only, do not touch the bearing with your bare fingers as the natural oil on the skin is acidic enough to etch the bearing. when the rod bolts are torqued to spec. the bearing is crushed into position, no room behind it for oil to be. the dry metal to metal contact under the crush pressure creates important friction that helps to prevent spinning a bearing. @@dans_Learning_Curve

      @wannagofacofflavazza6809 Big thanks. That's good to hear, because there's a lot to know in doing this for a jack of all trades like me. I definitely want to learn if there are things that I'm doing wrong or could do better. Some people say I shouldn't have put oil between the rod bearings and the caps and rods, for instance. Well, they were oily when I took them out, and there was even a cross hatch machined into the rods and caps which tells me the engineers intended for that to carry oil. It seems many people think that oiling this will cause a bearing to spin. I'm doubtful of that obviously, especially since they were oily on disassembly, I don't see how it can be expected that they will stay dry sloshing around in an oily crankcase. Buy maybe in the future I will put them in dry. Always more to learn...

  • @tommyk1073

    John, as an engine builder, here is what I can tell you. Lapping the valves was performed very well, but there is a coarse and fine grit, not sure which one you had but they are both to be used. Second, honing the cylinders is actually more involved than people think. The cross hatch angle is typically 45 degrees, but longer stroke engines can be 60 degrees. This angle is controlled by the speed up & down and honing head rpm. These cross hatch cuts are for oil to lie in to lubricate piston. Too many cuts at improper angles can cause excess oil in cylinder and smoking. Just want to help..very good educational video..👍🏻

    Honeing: the oil is not for lubrication at all. It serves two purposes. One, control heat. But, most importantly, wash the swarf away. If you end up with that grey sludge in the bores when honeing? You are not using enough oil. There is a reason every commercially available honeing machine in the world floods the cyclinder with oil the entire time the stones are in contact with the bore. It never ceases to amaze me how this so very important fact slips past so many "engine builders". I understand, "you don't know, what you don't know". Now you know. When I hone, I set up a large drip pan under the block as close as I can to minimize the mess, with 3-4gals of diesel in it, and a pump/hose rigged up on a mag-base to flood the bore. Works fantastic. Nothing wrong with a parts-house three-legged hone. Just keep those stones clean. You will end up with straighter, rounder bores. Spend WAY less times because clean stones cut way faster. And the stones will last much longer. And, I absolutely love your valve spring compressor! Good stuff! One other note for future reference: no oil between outer bearing shell and rod/block. That oil film will affect tolerance on start-up, AND final torque reading on associated fasteners. I've actually proven this one myself with a bolt-stretch gauge to end a years old heated debate with a good buddy, LOL! After we shared a 6pk and all was right in the world, HAHA.

      @benjamincresswell3713 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I was taught that vegetable oil was the proper lubricant because it washes out with soap and water. But I was also taught that there is no reason to "hone" a cylinder if you didn't bore it. You are not doing anything unless you are just removing debris. A cylinder is a size, i.e. A,B,C,D and you are not going to open it up appreciably unless you spend all day in one cylinder, and you have no way to keep it parallel with the crankshaft. Some people call it [honing] "glaze busting" but there is no reason to "glaze bust." If you don't believe it just rebuild an engine w/ out "glaze busting" it. You will experience a short period of less ring sealing befor they seat into the bores, but you trade longer ring life. That is especially true of todays low tension piston rings. ben/ michigan

      @@benjamincresswell3713 Not calling you out here in any way. Just talking shop and sharing 40yrs expereince. (taught by a master who build many race winning engines for famous drag racers). New rings will never "properly" seat to a glazed cylinder. Nor will they last longer. They will promote heat and cost efficiency. That engine with new rigns in glazed holes will never get good fuel mileage, run hot, and use lots of oil. The valves will have so much carbon buildup the dang thing will run like crap in no time. And if it is an older EGR equipped engine? That will also be a nightmare in no time. True, each different ring technology brings its own needed surface treatment on the cylinder wall. Crosshatch angle, finish RA, Plateau, delta. There is a lot going on here. But, John is doing a backyard rebuild of a very old, very low tech, diesel. 98% of what he did was spot on. Only things I would have done different would have been more flush while honing. You heard him say he went through 3 sets of stones, right. I usually get 3 or 4 big block Chryslers out of a set of those stones. It doesn't take that long to remove .005" out of a 3"-4" ish hole with one of those hones with a really good flush flowing while honing. And protectors on those dangling rod bolts so as not to nick the crank during install. As for oil, scalding hot water and Dawn dish-soap will wash just about any oil out of a block. I do a two step wash. First solvent (usually plain old gasoline, EPA be damned! (I do get rid of it properly)). Then the scalding water/Dawn. I've done lots of high budget, fully machined builds. But, also countless backyard builds just like this, and a guy can get fantastic results with good practices. Modern engines don't really lend themselves to this fun stuff. But, anything with iron holes, and low tech rings, will come right back to life. Fun fact: Chrysler service manuals for iron V8's states a .010" overbore is premissable with stock pistons on all B/RB engines. I've done this personally a few times, with a silly 3-legged hone. One of these engines is still plowing my old neighbor in PA's driveway in the winter, and chasing parts in the summer, 30 years later.

      ​best advice here. I had to comment on the rod bolts. I especially cringed when he rotated without caps. I've disassembled engines without protectors only lateer to decide to use the crank. I also was concerned about his leaving a ridge at the top of the bore. I'm not a big fan of the style hone/glaze breaker he used. I like the lisle hone but they are about 10x the cost of what he used. @@wheelieking71

      @hughobrien4139 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Have been an automotive diesel engine machinist since I was 18 in 1990.
      Read through your comments and quickly understood you’ve put your days into and around the trade.
      Very evident you’ve hung around the machine shops if not been employed in a few. I’ll keep that bit of understanding to myself.
      I’ll say you’re lending straight forward information that people should adhere to.
      You’re right about glazed cylinders. A popular tribologist that posts quite a bit of information on social media places finite detailed focus on cross hatch procedures and parameters. Bottom line. The engine oil is the final gasket seal in the cylinder. Without those crosshatches having any depth to hold oil molecules, the rings receive no lubrication. Increased heat is the consequence. Ring tension loss is the result along with the associated blow by.
      These days in my machine shop we no longer use vitrified honing stones. We have tool steel honing “shoes” with bonded CBN (cubic boron nitride) or PCD (poly crystalline diamond) in various grits. They do not wear or taper. If you’re seeing cylinder taper during the honing process it is operator error. We can easily keep a cylinder within .0002” t.i.r. even less in some cases. At that, modern engines have top compression rings that are under 1 mm in thickness so they’re about the same thickness of the upper and lower oil control rings you see going into this engine.
      So our once fancy tenth of a thousandth reading dial bore gauges aren’t enough to qualify the cylinder. We have to use a surface profilometer to match the ring manufacturers surface finish parameters. Engine stroke dictates the angle of the cross hatch and this has to be quantified as well. A real PIA to get acclimated to but when you begins to see the definite increases and improvements it makes it all worth it. Cylinders do not wear like they once did.
      Still yet it’s fun to see it done similarly to the days passed. No worries. No hurries. Just get it done as good as conditions allow. Which was what I witnessed here.
      Didn’t catch the oil going behind the bearings but for sure that’s not the way to do it.
      I was a bit concerned with the choice of which ring to eliminate on the new design pistons. I would have used the bottom ring out of the new ring package and eliminated one of the middle rings out of the equation.
      It also frightens me to see what I’m guessing is ether to start this new engine. I’m quite certain this is what broke the rings and ring lands in the old pistons, but I’ve struggled with air in a diesel fuel system myself and I can’t lend the advice on how to get the air out in these situations but I do have diesel mechanic customers that know how. I just hope that wasn’t ether and if it was I hope it didn’t serve up a big plate of harsh lessons learned.
      Have a good one!

    John, my first job was a diesel mechanic and you did very well. I always used pieces of hose on rod bolts to keep from nicking the crank journals, when putting the pistons in. and we had a tool to lap the valves from the face side. it was a suction cup we put to a drill but we did it with short sessions and changed directions every time. What you did seemed to work though. One or two dabs lapping compound, per about thirty seconds and wipe it off and repeat. As soon as the grit sound goes away. We also reconditioned the seats and faces before we lapped them in, which would have helped yours from the condition they were in. I realize you don't have the resources for all that equipment and would not be cost effective in your situation. Other than that, you did as good or better than I would have, so all in all, Great job!

    First off I really enjoyed your video. That said there are a couple of things I would have done differently.Rear main seal lip should be greased before install,when honing cylinders,scraping block surface, plug the bottom of cylinders with clean rags & cover the crank to keep any grit/gasket material/rust from getting down there & into the oiling holes in the crank,that fine grit is impossible to get out with washing with crank installed,end gap file the rings to fit your cylinders & orient the ring gaps on pistons opposite each other ring & last put rubber hose on rod studs to prevent nicking the rod journal’s when installing. Great job on your spring compressor,I don’t think I would have thought of that! Seeing that much smoke might mean broken rings if there was not enough end gap on them? Maybe try a compression test to see if all cylinders have about the same compression?

    For a small shop, being able to fabricate a cutting tool for any work is a big advantage.
    Glad to see that your self reliance kicked in, and you got the problem solved.

    On a big oil pan, you sometimes get long pieces of 1/8" bar to fit withe pan bolts. This spreads the load area around the pan to get better gasket sealing. It also prevents the bolts from deforming the holes around the pan like you. Just a bit of useless information. Appreciate all the hard work you do on all your videos, makes great content.

    John, at 30:05 you made a pin to fit in the alignment bushing so you could really grab a hold of the bushing without crushing it when pulling it out. I don't know if where those bushing are are in a blind hole or not.
    If they are, a "trick" an old timer showed me years ago was to fill the bushing with grease before putting the the pin you made in it and then taping the pin with a hammer. This will hydraulic the bushing out of the blind hole from the bottom side and not damage the bushing in the slightest. Try it next time you find yourself in a similar situation. Works great 👍

    The hole in the bottom of the clutch housing has two jobs. It's to drain any condensation that may form in the area and also to act as a tattle-tail for oil leaks within the housing. The cotter pin is there to help keep the hole clean. It is meant to move about or spin as the machine is running.

    Because the pistons are old and have less rings than the new pistons.

      Yep, several people have commented the same, teaching me something. For what it's worth, when I disassembled them they were oily behind the bearings, and even had a cross hatch machined into the rod and cap, I assumed for oil carrying. I will probably do them dry from now on, but I find it hard to believe that no oil works it way behind them while banging around in an oily crankcase. I think a spun bearing would come from inadequate oiling of the journal, not because there's a thin film of oil behind the bearing. But either way, thanks for the info!

      Almost all their stuff USED TO BE junk. Some of it still is. But, their quality has been steadily improving over the years to the point where some of their stuff absolutely can't be beaten for functionality and value. I just bought a set of 90T ratchet wrenches that are surprisingly good. You cannot beat their US General tool boxes for value. Most of the other manufacturers continually have been losing quality without a associated price drop, so the gap continues to narrow. Some of the made-in-USA Craftsman stuff USED TO BE pretty good, but now it is complete garbage. Even some of the Snap-On stuff is way too overpriced for what it is. Bottom line, like he said, the stand was in stock and it seemed to do everything he needed it to do for a reasonable price. I remember when my parents bought a 1972 Toyota Corona that was just north of $2K new. People considered that Japanese stuff to be mostly junk. But it ran forever and over time, the Toyotas became the hallmark for quality and the number one brand by continually improving the product. Harbor Freight and the Chinese are executing this same business model, while made-in-USA is disappearing off the face of the Earth.
