Cummins Swap - Will it Start? | Mack A40 | Part 2 

I've first seen adventures made from scratch,Mr good pliers, and diesel creek videos and then scrappy industries.

I was a truck driver in the mid 80's & early 90's. Many of the old junk yard tractors had that same low air buzzer. They are mechanical generic devices, from the 60's & early 70's.

Great job getting the engine running. Cant wait to see the truck moving again. Love your videos man.

I’m glad Matt at Diesel Creek recommended you. Great channel!

I'm Number 44 Looooooove Macks! The Bulldog says it all....

Brilliant channel great work collecting the old mack and getting it started

Can’t wait for the next installment!! Great Job Sam!!

Well I'm glad to see that you gained 14000 subscribers in 2 days. Your channel is good as diesel Creek and I enjoy your videos very much.

Hi Sam, I’m a new subscriber who migrated over from Diesel Creek, a channel I really enjoy. Diesel Creek is where I first became associated with your work. I’m really impressed with your channel. Less YeeHaw and more a man who truly knows what he’s about and with the patience and persistence to accomplish goals. Very nice. Very entertaining.

I applaud your self control to not just fog the thing with ether. Bravo sir.

Love the good ol Mack’s

That 5.9 will make it a much better pulling machine!

Just came to your channel Scrappy. My old man Bought new Brockway in '59 , Macks cousin . It had a 220 Cummins

Nice job figuring everything out!

Sam, I have followed Matt at Diesel Creek, for a couple of years, and saw you were helping out, and glad you guys help each other out. Now I have both of you to follow, as like me I like the older machines!😊

Cudos for your perseverance

Well done bro, were all coming from Matts channel over to yours, more interesting .lol

Wow I've been watching these videossince you started shifting that B model and it's the trip to watch you turn this thing over I'm just it's gettin late here at night but I'm still watching you turned at a model over and over and I know you've already done it that's because it's an older video but I thought I'd say I appreciate it you have a good one

WILL Love the way you tackle jobs, the only thing better would be you and Matt from Diesel Creek tackling impossible jobs together.

Way to diagnose......nice job.

Just dropping in from Diesel Creek. Subscribed and love the content.

Love that dog. Beeeutiful. Over from diesel creek

It is no wonder that You and Matt get along. That fuel and battery setup was full on jenky, I like it as I have taught my sons the same. Also liked the music, sounded throw back Led Zeppelin.

That’s going to be sweet when it’s all done. I would definitely leave the old door stenciling on that rig it goes perfectly with those great old lines.

New to the channel, way to keep the old dog alive!

SEMA TRUCK, Nice lines on that. The cummins is a nice upgrade.

Just found you by. Matt. Looking forward to watching your channel. Thanks from. Sc

I was made in 1953 also, my chassis is breaking down but otherwise does funcion, had some engine trouble this year but working ok now. Enjoyed this video bro. Safe travels. Ken

You have good music,peace

Deutsch connectors take a project up so many levels in durability and serviceability

Congratulations, sounds really great !

Great job great video thanks Sam

12:40 i was half expecting to find a link to the Semi-Supervillains youtube page because i grew so accustomed to their tracks this sounded exactly like one of theirs, still a great track and glad you chose it Sam.

Yes it's nice to have a hand full throttle crank for 10 seconds wait 30 seconds then half throttle crank for another 10 seconds it should start percolating the old secret to starting 471 a 671 and even a silver 92 Detroit Diesel they was dirt when it was cold that way probably wasn't enough fuel in the cylinders and not enough battery when you do that process the fuel will seal the rings off better and then it'll atomized better because I don't think you have enough compression to ignite thanks great video

Great looking Mack 👍

Well done!

Matt sent me over to look see,Good content. glad i came. Thanks for sharing.

Congratulations It's fun to troubleshoot franken setups

Congrats!

well glade to see someone else likes the same lights I use .

Great video love the Mack's to thanks 😎👍

I can't wait till I get it restored😊😊

10b hauler right there!

Love the Mack.

Sounds good!

Cut the wires to that buzzer!!!

I am going to have to thank matt for giving me a heads up about you sam.

Found you from Diesel Creek. New subscriber.. like what I see so far.. thx for the content.

That’s going to be a cool truck.

Hi Sam , I come from Diesel Creek, nice restauration. Greetings from Germany.

I just found your channel from diesel Creek, looks like an amazing rebuild project. New subscriber out for now.

Cummins or CAT... it will run.... Many may really dislike electrical, and I get it. If you want to make your life more enjoyable. Start wiring with Deutsch connector and 21st century relays. I pulled the wiring our of my brothers 79 Z28. Bought a new wiring setup. Mapped my wiring in a spreadsheet...and Deutsch connected everything. If we / he pulls the motor again four connections

Great video thanks from down under!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Nice some one with good content

lets go Sam!! great start

Just saw you on Diesel Creek and subscribed. I'm sure I'll enjoy your channel.

Great vidja to boot

Way to go

Subscribing after watching you work and fooling around with Matt you are a (my kinda guy).

Nicebb vb job. Nice truck

Morning Sam! That's a great idea using the motor & trans from a school bus, not to excited about a auto being in your Mack, but you're going to change that out right? But.....this gives me a great idea, I know they put alot of V8 cats(3208) in many school buses, like to do this swap in my 96 Ford F350 dually pickup...

nice

Put a couple of 8D batteries on that truck and it should flip it over on it’s top 😂😂😂

👍🏻🍻

Every electronic diesel I own has issues of some variety. Every mechanical diesel I own wants to get up and go to work...... I know what I prefer....

Put the shop air in.

What a great project!, I send you a like and subscribe to your Channel too!

😮 Take some air and air your air transfer if it turns off, that was your problem

The longer, but simpler solution would be swap out the electronic fuel pump; to a p-pump. Gets rid of the computer for the most part as well. Would that possibly be a project further down the line?

Why didn't you use Cosby sauce to get it started? Tho you evidently did get it started

actually a little starting sauce would not hurt anything. May have started a lot quicker.

When are you or are you planning on getting back to working on the Mack?

Sir I am from legit town and there was a scrappy s in langhorn is that the same as yours company

Blue tooth drive shaft... 😂😂😂

It only has to work once

no fuel

Where’s the ether?

I hate when people drop automatics and electronics into stuff like this……. Couldve just put a mechanical 12valve in it and used an eaton transmission…. And spent maybe $2000 total…to do it…. Would run with one wire….. and wouldn’t have a ridiculous shift tower sticking out of the floor

Those are not deutsch connectors they are mil spec cannon connectors....

I usually like what you post, but this video was very painful to watch

It’s automatic 🤦🏼‍♂️🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮that’s terrible
