Just started this video. Suggest in the future you remove any plugs and soak cylinders with PB blaster or equiv. You do not want to damage rings. Giving in the best chance. Thx for vid.
You an clearly see I’m not on any bolt, I’m using the shaft for the hydraulic pump, and it doesn’t matter which way you turn the engine as long as you can get full rotation out of it. It was easier to get access with a pipe wrench from the side I was on.

There is a site where you can get almost any books on old CAT equipment

Thanks, that was actually done off camera.
Having over 50 years experience with D4s, if they ran the pony motor dry of fuel, it should run with fresh fuel.
It doesn’t have any spark right now, I’ve cleaned the points, could be a bad condenser
7J4075 -- 1940 maybe have green OD paint on the first layer.
I had 7J354, similar La Plante Choate blade
That’s cool
Why would you turn engine backwards? Are trying to undue the bolt?

Push start that Ol girl.
I just got done cleaning the carburetor, we’ll see what happens.
I do not think that's is an RD4
It’s not, that’s what I was told by the owner, then I found the serial number and checked it, it’s a D4
If you get the serial #, I can give you a year.
7J4075
Rd4 has 3 cylinders
Yeah it’s a d4
Didn’t realize till after I checked the serial number
