    Final Assembly series part 12
    We take the injectors to a specialist, Alliant Power near Denver. The results are well, see for yourself. These injector settings are the same for all early D4400 & D4600 4.25 4-1/4" bore engines. The 1939 Caterpillar D4 / RD4 4G9986 "Lil Lefty" has never been so much fun and fulfilling. The machine has the Cat D4400 Diesel engine. I hope you enjoy the shop talk, banter and commentary.
    We are operators pretending to be mechanics!
    Thanks for watching!
    Regards,
    Aaron & Greg "The cleaner"

      But I was assured that both 1945 9K Caterpiller Motor Grader’s ran when parked 🤣😂🤣
      Now that’s funny 😆 I don’t care who you are.
      I’m working on the 1954, No12, 8T D318 at the moment. Pony electric starter issues. 👀
      Loved this series of videos. Great content and I love the way you guys convey the information. I felt like I was part of a community rebuild and when she first fired off I too had a tear or two from the joy 🥲.
      This video was definitely the Cat’s meow.

    I think I would remove both fenders and pay a boy to spend a couple of hours driving it around the field to loosen them up, maybe high center it on some carefully arranged blocks so all the tractor's weight can be placed on the offending links

    Might have to take the chains to a track shop and have them push the pins out and back in.

  • @davidhongkong5657

    Just and idea for your tracks. Is it possible to take the track off and stand it on a machine that vibrates non stop for days on end. In other words, the constant movement would eventually cause the disintergration of the rust particles causing the track pins and bushes to lock-up. Perhaps one of the vibrators used for taking air bubbles out of freshly poured concrete might produce aggresive vibration.

    • @johnalexander4356

      It might take a big vibratory compactor like they use to compress roadways when they build them

      We already did the injection pump and are quite confident with the results. Definitely something will consider when we work on the toolbar 7U.

      Yes I agree. Take the second fender off, rig up temporary fuel tank and any other supports you may need, and then run it around the paddock in second/third gear for a bit.
