Excellent video, I have watched a couple of your R&R on pumps, makes me appreciate the level of expertise and equipment required to do a competent repair.
WHILE I AM A DIESEL MECHANIC AND OWNED 2 OLDS DIESELS AND LOVED THEM BOTH! I HAD AN 1980 THEN AN 82 WITH THE 5.7 LITER (350 CI). YOU MENTIONED THAT THIS PUMP CAME OUT OF A 78 CHEVROLET PICKUP. THE CHEVROLET DIESEL WAS A 6.2 V-8! I NEVER HEARD OF THE 5.7 BEING PUT IN THE PICKUP! AS FAR AS I KNOW THE TWO ENGINES ARE ENTIRELY DIFFERENT V-8 s! WHY DID I QUIT DRIVING THEM? THE 80 WAS TOTALLED BY AN DRUNK DRIVER, AND THEN 4 YEARS LATER THE 82 WAS PARKED BY THE STREET AND TOTALED BY A HIT AND RUNNER!
The 5.7 was available only in the half ton trucks from 78 to 81. The 6.2 came out in 82 and replaced the 5.7 in trucks. It was available in 10-30 series. The 6.2 IS a completely different engine, designed by Detroit Diesel. Some parts such as lift pumps and Injection pumps were carried over with changes.
Couldn't help but start laughing when the Bag o' Parts came out of the box! Found out about your channel from @WatchWesWork 's "Unicorn's Are Real" injection pump rebuild and got hooked. Really appreciate not only being able to watch the rebuild process but the ability you have to take what is obviously an complex process and explain not only what is happening but why an issue occurs when you find something, and do so in an simple enough manner for someone who doesn't work on these all day to understand.
I sort of know these v8 engines, never directly worked on one, i just know that in diesel shop at vo-tech, they had one that would start, pump works good engine total rebuilt and these engines did not have a turbo. They were also the Chevy 350 converted diesel, how when this engine i am referring to was rebuilt they bored the engine, when that was done it made the bore equal to the leight of stroke or a bit over the leight of stroke, inturn the engine could not suck air in to the engine. They then took the engine sleeved it back to standard bore, and then it would run

Pls do some more of these exotic pumps i love to see that Kinda regards from the old world 🙋🏻♂️🇦🇹 I just came over from wes and love your Content, every video not a minute to long😊
I also need to know about indexing the rotor head on a vp44 pump to be in the right orientation to the input shaft, i need an answer as soon as possible
How many of these special tools do I need to do a reseal if I don’t move the metering or relief settings? I’d say I’m an ace mechanic- I say when that’s an 11 or a 1 and I think it’s something I can handle just don’t want to risk blowing up another idi.
Where i live(the netherlands) cafe is a pub/bar. Indeed sometimes you need a bottle of booze to cope with the regulations. At least over here. Not being capable we take decision after decision(legislation) that doesnt work. What was wrong with the reliable detroit diesel allison(gm) or the later cummins or caterpillar?
During that era with gov regulations as they were, the worst factory engine mods you can imagine became a reality. The best "repair" for the diesel 350 Rocket was to pull the engine and replace it with an early 70's gas 350 Rocket. There was nothing good about the diesel 350. Swapping for the gas Rocket offered the least mods and provided a great engine. If you get a mid to late 70's gas smog engine my advice is rip all the smog equipment off. It was all garbage.

I really hope this knowledge continues to be transferred to future generations and that the skill is still required in spite of the EV revolution
This is pretty awesome to watch! I'm sure Duff and Mortske liked the extras too!
Corey is so detailed and proficient…… I wish I just had a little of his talent
I appreciate the skill and expert level of work you guys do. It's good to see people doing solid work.
Very good thurough video! Full load at 4000rpm that little db is a screamer!

You might want to turn off your Caps key. Shouting at everyone just makes people ignore you.

Hey! Corey! That is my apron you're wearing! I was wearing it back in 1987. At least that's when I saw it last.
Very informative!! Nicely done. I’m not a mechanic or even a diesel owner but I got quite an education from your video!
Boy, the guy who sent that thing in really screwed it all up!
Bwahahaha!!
Maybe he’ll get fired.
@@DangerousSportsForSeniors or lose the shop
It would be nice if you added an overhead cam so we could see what you're doing from a better angle. 👍
Another awesome video…!
Thank you gentlemen.

I love how you advance gauge leaks. They all leak like that :)
That Mortske guy breaks as much as he fixes! I'm surprised that Duff puts up with his nonsense! 😆
Why do you reuse the flex ring? Why not upgrade the weight basket to the newer one that does not use the flex ring?

Wow Create
what does a job like this cost i have a 6.2l chevy
Average cost for one done db2? Have similar in a 81 caddy diesel 5.7
The price can vary quite a bit, but you should expect to approach the $1000 mark.
