An EASY way to UN-SEIZE Detroit Diesel Supercharged 2 Stroke Injectors - 8v71 Revival Pt 2

- In this video, I show how I deal with 6 of the 8 seized or stuck injectors in the 8v71T Supercharged Detroit Diesel 2 Stroke V8 engine. This GM engine had been sitting in a shed for about 19 years and I have brought it home to see if it will start and run once I give it a good check over. We have very limited information about why it was removed from the caterpillar scraper to which it was originally fitted but we’ve rescued it nonetheless and we will see how it turns out in due course. Thanks for watching, Bruce.

Reminds me of me when im obsessively working, it gets dark, i miss dinner, the wife starts to complain but yet, I plough on
The old "I'll be in in a minute".
Yeah the misso 😂
You probably should credit the commenter in the last video that described the procedure.
Hi, good info Bruce ,more please. Many thanks from UK.
that was 1 of the very best videos ive seen on here what you clearly and precisely showed thank you very much
I enjoy your program very much. I've always, after work found it relaxing to have a beer at the pub and watch the bartender work or take lunch at a Cafe and watch the cook or anyone else that's good at what they do. I just had to tell a salesman that would not take no for an answer to get off my porch. I tried the friendly way first. Let's just say I cracked a beer and you came on TH-cam. I'm back in my happy place again thanks to you.
You watch people eat while drinking? Mind your business.
While a few idiots destroy these beasts... Bruce run it. Awesome job! And the human being, just ll give it proper value, when they lost simple resourcers... as a very reliable diesel engine like this. Good Bless Bruce
One of the best sounding engines ever made.
Would i watch some old bloke in a paddock fool around with a diesel engine.?? OFCOURSE I WOULD.. IT'S BRUCE..
I am enjoying your videos very much! I learned of your channel on the western truck and tractor repair channel. I read your About post and we have a lot in common. At the age of 6, dad built a new house, had a new well drilled and the drill rig 4 cylinder Continental engine failed. The driller put in a new one and left the old one under a tree in the back yard. I got my dad's sparse tool box and began to take it apart without any idea at all about engines but I wanted to learn. Went on to open my own farm equipment repair business at age 14 and retired 23 years ago as a fleet maintenance manager. I spend my spare time now repairing equipment for folks in my tiny little town in Arkansas, USA and watching great video content like yours on YT.
I use a brass punch/drift to prevent damage to the injector.I have the special deep socket for the fuel jumpers. They are all the same length. What you’re doing is best keeping them in their original position.
Great video Bruce ! That last injector was bugger for sure. I wish I knew more about those engines to help you out . Brilliant idea on the vise grip-slidehammer mate. I call that "Fabricobbling" when you manufacture your own tools or parts ! Scott 🌵
Haven't come across "Boltoff" but I find "Penetrene" a good brew, actually prefer it over WD40. Slow and steady wins the race Bruce, you are patient and persistent. Looking forward to Part-3. 😉
G'day Bruce,
Great little tip for freeing Up the injectors, stops the engine running away on ya .
Looking forward to the next one on this engine.
Bring it on .
Respect....!
Excellent video and commentary Bruce. Can't wait to see the next few video's. Don't give up.

Great job Bruce love the GM 2 stroke thanks for sharing 🦘
Well done old Mate👍
Epic work mate, looking foward to the next one
Also if you need a penetrant and don't have anything specific on hand, Dex 3 trans fluid and Acetone mixed works pretty good
I'm about as far away as l could get, BC Canada. You use the same techniques as l do. I've had good success freeing injectors by pulling lines and filling them with deep creep or whats your fav. Then knock the plunger on injector. Do all stuck ones then have a beer. Refill and tap down ones who creep up. Have another beer. If any aren't creeping up pull um. Find a brass fitting to tap injector rack on and knock it in and out. Well, you get the idea. Beer and patience. To all you guys working on green leakers one, their marking territory and two, if your gona pull off a valve cover learn how to set the rack.
your my hero dude. I love your videos and like how you don't stop until you get it. i do the same. keep up the very best videos.
If you need info on injector timing I can give the basic procedure on that too. I don’t know how far you’re trying to take it, but my friend has all the field manuals on these so I could help if you need info or parts.
Can’t wait to see it running , your doing a great job Bruce, until the next video, have a good one Mate👍👍🍮🍮🙏🙏
Sir I salute You!
Hard case aye Bruce, when you’re working for wages you can’t wait for 5pm to come around and knock off, but retired and doing something you love, well the sun can drop down behind the yard arm and it goes dark but who gives a shit, work on baby. Great stuff Bruce, top videos mate, well done
Too right thanks Gordon, enjoy
I cut an old fuel jumper line in half then run on piece of tubing off the cut end into a jar then you can blow the old fuel out of the injector and squirt what ever you want through the injector and it goes directly into the jar. No mess and nothing diluting the oil.
G,day Bruce, great video again , on what's needed when attempting to start old GM DETROIT, or if you start them without freeing up stuck rails they might run off to heavens above, and sometimes if it's got leaky pipes or gaskets on air intake there's no blocking it off to kill it dead , fire extinguisher or heavy sprays of water until it stops
Bolt Off is 100% Aussie Made and and Owned
How long will that last?
Nice job!
Awesome content. Thank you.
Bruce, you could have easily removed those injectors then freed the throttle rods much faster.
Where abouts in Australia do you live? Looks like nice country!
hello Mr. Bruce; wondering how to get a heavy does of acetone and ATF blend into the cylinders of a certain V-8 diesel engine. It is a one of the 8.2 Detroit diesel 4 stroke, commonly referred to as a Fuel Pincher, it is non turbo, inside a 1989 bluebird bus here in Fairbanks, Alaska. It has sat for 7 years in an area where there is a lot of pond water near by. I suspect this has contributed to the rings sticking a bit, maybe a bit much because I have already attempted the basic crank rotation, but not as of yet had time to get to the flywheel starter gear teeth. I drove it there 8 years ago and know it did run very well. Do I have to remove the intake? There are no outside ports or visible injectors, on the out side where the exhaust manifolds are bolted to the heads. Do I need to pull the intake manifold, or do I merely, very cleanly, remove the valve covers, as you do on the Detroit 2 strokes? Your thought are appreciated sir -thank you -russell thesing
Do you have the little tool for adjusting the injector plunger?
😎👍
Asmr for mechanics.
👍🤩👍
👋🥖🇫🇷
Absolutely love reviving old engines , especially old turbo diesels. Thanks for sharing, matey
