Not sure why people dislike the Milwaukee's. Honestly they're one of the most powerful battery operated impacts out there these days. Non air powered guns have really come a long way from what they used to be. I remember when the corded 1/2" Craftsman gun came out. I picked one up and to tell you the truth I wasn't really blown away by the torque it had, and I would use it for lighter duty jobs, or when I didn't feel like waking people up with my compressor early in the morning, or burning the midnight oil out in my shop late at night. It worked okay but my I.R. titanium gun was my go-to. Not only does it have a good amount of grunt, but its one of the quietest guns I've used. Now that we are fast forward to the future, these battery impacts are not only extremely convenient but them being weak, and not being able to break fasteners loose is really a thing of the past. Yeah, they are a little pricey, but this is one of those cases where you really get what you pay for. The Milwaukee has one of the highest torque ratings of the bunch, and the battery seems to last a pretty long time too. To anyone contemplating on buying one, I'd say go for it. You won't be disappointed.
JC knows that he is going to do what works best for him all others can do what is best for them. Mrs. JC said it right if everyone liked the same thing then there would be no need for other brands. We always enjoy JC taking us to class. Have a great day and warmer weather shall be headed your way soon. Tom
I agree with you that Milwaukee tools are worth it. I think the people that complain are the ones that go to harbor freight and buy the same tools over and over again and think they are getting a value
I very much admire your approach to identifying and solving issues and we have just seen four that you have identified (the bad steering tyre, the exhaust, the oil breather and solved all three whilst waiting for the spares for the fourth the diesel fuel leak). Congratulations and I have learnt quite a lot in the process, thanks.
I lke your channel .Next week We are taking a vacuum tank for septic and taking it off a kenworth and putting on my freightliner .I measured the width of frame. It's 33 1/2 wide on freightliner and 34 inches wide on he kenworth.
Nice work JC oh, isn't it amazing how you're always fixing somebody else's garbage. The right way. LOL. On the lighter side of news guess what? Just as I thought the mechanic was full of crap just as the other one was five years ago then said my motor was no good then. She is up and running perfectly and I did the work. Siphoned all the fuel out of the fuel tank and change the spark plugs cap and rotor as I found one plug number two cylinder not even firing. Tied a sock five layers thick on the siphon hose put the fuel back in the truck and fired her up and so far I got about 80 miles on it no errors. I say JC thank you Jesus for giving me the strength to do the work. You my friend are always an inspiration for me, thank you for that.
My '04 IH 4002 has the same cold start issue. The mechanic at the IH shop it is the oil pump not generating enough pressure quickly at start up and should be replaced. I balked at $3500 for a new oil pump.
2 different oil pumps on the engine. one to lubricate the engine and supply oil to the "high pressure oil pump'. i rarely have to replace a high pressure pump. it is almost always a leak somewhere.
How is a pretty good commercial for Milwaukee they should send you new impacts just for the commercial LOL love you Channel keep making ammo keep watching thanks
J.c. Forget the guys who have something negative to say and acknowledge the good comments the less you acknowledge the clowns the quicker they shut up try it 💪🏻
Hey I just watched your video on the 70’s f-250 you wanna swap to a super duty, a guy around here did one on a 7.3. The reason I’m messaging you about this is because the 70’s donner had a rotted front floor, anyway the guy’s parts superduty was a clean roll over, he decided to use the superduty front floor and fire wall, (front cab mounts fit frame) by doing that he was able to use the SD heater box, hydroboast, dash, front seat; it made for fairly easy and cheap build that had great results. Let me know what you think.. PS- I left the comment after this video even tho I know it’s a different topic, but I don’t know how RU-vid works if all the comments go to one place for you, or they stay with the old video and you don’t see them unless you go back to that video; I left this one with and earlier video and didn’t get a reply so I resent it with this. Sorry about rambling again.
I like the Milwaukee tools I have several impacts and other tools the people who don't like them go to harbor freight and buy a cheap impact then say cordless tools suck and use air tools instead
@@michaelparker9886 I have Makita and then ryobi for secondary when it comes to carpentry related, but decent enough supply of HF sockets ratchets and extension in the garage, the color coded sockets aren’t bad for the price and eventually the coating will wear off but can’t beat it
Hello i really enjoy your videos and knowledge. I just got a 2005 international flatbed with dt466. Picked it up, drove fine. Did maintenance on it when I got to my shop. Oil, oil filter, fuel filter. Primed it, ended up replacing the fuel filter cover bc it was too old and cracked. It starts right up but after giving it some throttle, as it tries to return to idle it gets real rough. Does not stall, sometimes it goes back to normal idle on its own. Other times I have to slowly give it some throttle for it to smooth out. Possible air in the system still? Or low oil?
On these engines Orings on the high pressure oil rail are common to leak and cause hard start and low ICP. You can pull the valve cover and crank the engine and watch for leaks.
thats why i was watching the high pressure oil readings on the scanner. if they were questionable i would have done that while the dog box was off. i also would have put air to the system to look for leaks.
@@j.c.smithprojects Yeah it just seemed to be a little slow and weak at cranking. I think the desired pressure at cranking is 750 if I remember right. Another way to check the seals is to see if the truck will start when hot like 170+ degree and see if if will start. One other thing thats not as common too is there is a screen on the high pressure pump that can become clogged but I havnt seen that happen much
@@j.c.smithprojects Oh okay that must have been why I was thinking 750 and after going back and looking it is pretty quick to just up to around 500. One other question what scanner are you using. I use internationals at work but I'm building my shop right now and was wanting to get something to do heavy with.
High pressure rail o rings & or the adapters, that go into the injectors. I've changed more than my fair share, of both. Includes this model of DT and the Maxxforce generation DT, DT9& DT10 engines. Does the intake grid heater work properly?
It's not that I don't like milwaukee I've always been a fan but I have dewalt for 2 reasons milwaukee burnt me when they had v18 v28 that were pushing hard and were first lithium ion batteries they sold out or were taken over by tti and switched to m18 obsoleted what I had. The other reason when was doing construction and putting steel roofs on dewalt 1/4" hex impacts were smaller and lighter to drag around all day. I also have m12 which was nice because light but batteries didn't last long enough and have a rigid hydraulic drive because quieter for lags and tightening down foundation bolts but is heavy and cumbersome.
he had all the "puck" o rings and injector o rings replaced along with the icp and ipr to solve the starting issue...he spent thousands of dollars in parts and labor plus the damage the previous guy caused.....all for a $30. fuel drain valve.
Can anyone help me, I have a 2004 f150 with the 5.4 motor. At low RPM (under 2,000rpm) there is this loud almost bad bearing sound coming from the left side of the engine bay. I thought it would be one of the belt tensioners however whenever I get the RPM above 2,000 it sounds exactly like it should. Any ideas? Is it possible to be my can shaft?
Timing chain tensioner and/or guide and/or cam sprocket/phaser. Check (hot) oil pressure with a physical gauge, if the oil pump is failing or pickup screen is clogged. You can watch the oil pressure PID, but a physical gauge can tell you a better story that electronics may mask or even hide. If oil pressure is within spec, pull valve covers and check for damaged components in the timing chain system. You didn't specify 2 valve or 3 valve, but that really only changes what parts you will need and doesn't change much as far as the diagnostic techniques.
i have had a few that had low oil pressure due to a relief valve issue. sometimes it has oil pressure. sometimes not. caused spun main bearings, rod bearings, scored cam journals and so much more.
@@j.c.smithprojects i totally agree we have all three brands at my shop and my dewalt and my bud John's Milwaukee beat the snap impacts every time. Snap-on makes great hand and air tools just not the best cordless tools.
How do you like the max force engines have you had any good luck with them i drive ambulance for a living an I was driving a 2011 international max force an the oil pump went out
On the snap on ProLink you can click on the left side where it says add to quick list you can add just the parameters you want to watch and put them all on one screen! I have one of them where I work and it works awesome!
