How I adjust valves & injectors on my '97 Cummins N14 CELECT 500hp "Red Top"
Quick & dirty, simple instructional on the process I use. Are there other ways to skin a cat? Of course, but sometimes us DIY guys need a "info only" step-by-step without 20 minutes of unnecessary babble.
This engine is completely stock & has been rebuilt once. The truck is a '97 Kenworth W900L with 2.4 million miles.
My assumption is the average viewer has basic knowledge of mechanical work & is a DIY type. This is not authoritative so use my specs & process at your own risk. Look up your engine's particular specs & procedures. I don't read RU-vid comments but you can interact with me on Instagram @flannel_philip

Thank you. I have an n14 in an international and am going to purchase my second red top plus in a 1999 Western Star. I appreciate the DIY information on anything N14. Love your videos brother!

Very good and well explained 😊😊

I have on many a occassion been unable to read the A B C markings on the auxillary pulley due to corrosion and down to the fact that Cummins marked them far to light. I now find it's far quicker to use a DTI gauge with magnetic base and bar the engine over till your injector is bottom dead centre and the companion clylinder valves rocking then carry out the setting. That only applies to the Celect and Celect Plus.

How often do u adjust after a rebuild

@codymeyer5279 Год назад

Great video Philip! I’ve got a question. Is there a difference between the N 14 in the N 14 celect plus? what horsepower setting is your engine at?

@jonathanking6546 9 месяцев назад

I am wondering the same but I don’t think he reads comments. I have the N14 in a 1995 International and am getting ready to purchase a 1999 Western Star with the Celect plus, red top. Did you ever find out?

@jeffreyturner6262 2 года назад

So when you start adjusting on cylinder 1, intake exhaust and the injector rocker will all be loose?

@josephhendricks6533 2 года назад

Yes

Did you have to readjust the Jake’s?

@ljkck3578 2 года назад

You need some angled feeler gauges to help you get in there, great job 👍.

@johngrabowski2957 2 года назад

@julitoortega504 Год назад

Hey man. I know you posted this a while ago. But between me 2 friends we have 5 n14 trucks. We use each others injectors and they all work fine. Once one goes bad we swap with whatever is available

@leejohnson6173 Год назад

@@julitoortega504 terrible idea..but hey you do you..who cares about injector flow rates.

@mray96 7 месяцев назад

You never showed the actual valve adjustment. Why?

@endurovex7272 Год назад

holy hell this is wrong. It requires 2 rotations to do all the valves and injectors. not 1 like you are telling people

@DEATHWISHVQ 8 месяцев назад

BASTARD

@DEATHWISHVQ 8 месяцев назад

to adjust the injector aren’t you supposed to finger tighten the bolt until it bottoms out, then do a 120 degree turn, then tighten the lock nut? Also I’m confused by your comment about “2 rotation to do all the valves” as doing the valve just requires using the feeler gauge spec, and tightening the lock nut.
