Btw I didnt hear you mention it but on my vanguard the pushrods are the same length but they aren't interchangeable one is steel and one is aluminum was yours not?
On this particular Vanguard, both were aluminum rods with steel end caps. We dont have a lot of these engines come through so i can’t say that all engines are the same, but it could be possible in certain applications that either the intake or exhaust side could have a different material of push rod. As long as you read and follow the service manual on valve adjustment, you should be ok.
Is this common? I recently replaced a vanguard 21 out of a truckmount carpet machine it has been a nightmare after installing it ran fine for a couple weeks than started making noise around the balancer i pulled it apart and the stator bolts all had vibrated loose till they hit the balancer ended up bending all four and all four broke off during removal anyway fixed all that it ran good for a couple months now its misfiring i mean damn its only 6 months old and I feel like using it as a boat anchor
This is not very common. It can possibly happen if the rocker arm adjustments are not torqued properly, and eventually loosen and lose adjustment. In this case, i used a bit of thread locker on the rocker arm adjustment nuts so that they wouldn’t back off. Have not seen this unit back in for this problem since
This truck was in the front end collision so we had to take it apart and put it all back together. the front end just to buy the parts from Dodge. It was $19,000.
Yes, I can’t say that this truck was treated badly. My customer bought it from somebody else and along the chassis. It had a lot of marks like it was off-road and it possibly ran you know conditions, but you are the second one that I hear or that I know overhead gasket leak.
@thehydraulicspecialist3176 *update Towed my car out of the dealership to a Toyota specialist, he ran test on my car for about 4 days and concluded that I did not have any coolant leaking into my cylinder, he said absolutely No evidence. Changed all my spark plugs and the Coil on cylinder 8. Parts ,Labor, & Diagnostic came out to about a grand VS. The $7100 that the dealer wanted for a head job service. Truck is running great! 🤷🏻♂️ *update #2 car started with the same problem and after two weeks of testing they found that it was indeed leaking coolant into cylinder 8. I was quoted between $8-10K, depending on what I wanted done in the repair.
Good to watch someone else replacing these corrupted clutch assemblies supplied to Vermeer by some misfits. The clutch always goes out like this under normal use from not lubricating the sliding grooves on the throughout bearing. Dust accumulates between the PTO output shaft and inside of this throughout bearing that will bind the 4 pins that are supposed to "glide" within the slots of the PTO collar. If you inspect the throughout bearing you will notice that these 4 pins will eventually grind themselves away if not cleaned and lubricated. BTW, Can you supply the part number for the throughout bearing? I don't think you mentioned it in your video. Carolina Clutch does not supply these throughout bearings any longer.
I need a little bit more information. What oil is the eating? Is it the engine oil or the air pump oil bear in mind that you could get overheated from both
Thank you I appreciate that but also lately we’ve been super busy to her. We’re not able to do video and do our job maybe in the future or start doing it again
@thehydraulicspecialist3176 Thanks for the reply. You helped me get the confidence to pull the Perkins out of my BC1250A that broke the damn input shaft. Talk about some carnage. Appreciate the videos.
When you plan an idea thats quick should take 30-40 mins but then you realize you didnt calculate the hr of detailed grinding 😅 3 hrs later you finish up lol
I like that modern blacksmith thank you. I really do appreciate that. Thanks for taking the time to watch my video and stay tuned for more. Thanks for your subscription as well.
Great video, love the light hearted atmosphere. Do you guys have experience with ELGi/Rotair compressors? I have a D185 that I’m having trouble with. Can’t bring it to you though since I’m in Oklahoma.
I got the 1400 my problem with big wood, some how when chips sometimes leaves small pieces and stop one of my drums, i have to put in reverse to take the piece out then start working fine again.
If you can send video it will be much easier to diagnose make a video from far away where I can see the whole chipper and then some into the problem you can send it to 909-578-1116
Not tied down, tail gate open, 3,300 lb strap holding gates closed -- machine realy weight is 10,000 lbs but you are right that it has 21,000lbs pull back force and a forward thrust of 17,000lbs but the machine it self does NOT WEIHG 21,000lbs , that trailer tires would have blew out and axles would have busted just from the transition of drive way to road. Look up before posting lies and making your self an uncredited source of info !!!!
