WELLLL... I was "given" a semi truck, but I not sure WHO got the better deal, them or me?!?
This truck is ROUGH... It's been sitting for at least 23 years, but from what I've bee told probably closer to 30 years, and I know NOTHING about it. It's been sitting at the back of a storage unit facility this whole time... the facility has changed hands a couple times over that time and even THEY didn't have ANY clue when this truck last moved!
The story began when I bought a Caterpillar D3 and a Gehl Skid Steer from a gentleman, and he had this truck sitting right next to them at the same facility, and he wanted all of it gone... He was tired of paying to store these machines that he had no intention of ever using again... I didn't want to PAY for the truck, but I told him I would take it off his hands as a part of the deal!
It turns out I'm going to have to pay quite heavily in my time for this semi, but as ALWAYS, I learn more with every project! This one is no exception!
This truck is a 1985 International S2300 tandem axle semi tractor with a day cab. Over all condition is rough to fair... Not sure what I'm going to do with it, but in today's video, we're going to figure out if this thing is worth saving or if it's just JUNK!
This one should be fun, thanks for coming along!

@jonmarshall64 5 месяцев назад

Two main things. The fuel issue is on the return line side. When it starts its fine until the return starts backing up, and then there is too much pressure in the system causing it to sit on the governor. Second, when the brakes are stuck to the drum like that, even with them being caged you still have to back the slack adjusters all the way off. Best way is to air them up, release the brakes and then back off the slack adjuster. Then you take a ball peen hammer and hit the inner lip of the brake drum. When it goes from a hollow thump to a ring, the shoes are loose. Then just run the slack adjusters back in until the are snug then back them off half a turn. Will be golden after that.

Turbo, spray upwards close to turbo, gravity, wd40 only went down to dissolve corrosion..

@KevinDShort 5 месяцев назад

No oil, how you wake it up vital.. or junk.. oil could be due to drain plug leak.. totally dry.. then air with moisture surface rust thru it all.. wd40 crankcase, light machine oil mix, can buy wd40 by unpressurized gallon.. open to cylinder wd40, light machine oil, with small amount of regular oil.. if had been siezed, every so often refill cyl and turbo spraying up machine oil too.. then vibrate tap once to by vibration cause wd40 penetration farther.. after up to a week, will turn over free, then no fuel or ign enabled, turn over enough same thing, to mix wd40 dissolve surface rust to not hrat up no oiling from lowrr rings to overheat destroy the rings.. just occasional to not burn out starter.. when fast turn no problem, drain all fluids put correct fluids in with slight reg oil on top to improve compression 4 start, should start right up, bypass tank until cleaned..from other source..

Pour either Tranny fluid or Marvel mystery oil into the diesel fuel tank, can, jug etc. If it were my truck I'd add a quart of each oil to 5 gallons of diesel fuel.

@Tbobelak 5 месяцев назад

The age of the truck, it is a Cummins L-10 I worked at the Cummins engine plant in Asheville, NY. In the 8o's I was an engine tester, and we made thousands of engines for International. I may have even tested that engine. Some of those PT [pressure-time] fuel pumps had an electric cut-off solenoid with an override thumb screw. The spool in the pump is stuck. Needs to be rebuilt, fuel is leaking past the seals. Giving you the high RPMs also have the bearings in the turbo replaced if you can get it apart.

My Father work on heavy equipment his whole life and helped out Lot of companies and truckers when they had brake downs. He was the local guru for heavy equipment. He had very little formal education, but he was one of the smartest men I’ve ever met. I have flown all over the world for work and Still never met his equal in maintenance. My wife and I bought some of the hardest puzzles that we could find and he always got them solved in just a few minutes. He never made a fortune and had to have help in his older years which the family was more than happy to provide. He was an excellent person and was always willing to help folks. He taught me integrity, and how to deal with people in business. He was loved and is so missed. Happy New year to you and yours. Every time I watch your videos it reminds me of him teaching how things work and always having a great attitude.

Not sure if anyone mentioned it, those wheel chocks with the chain are called scotch blocks. the chassis usually has a banjo shaped hole for the chain to drop in while in use. the chain keeps you from skidding over the top of the chock on an extremely hard pull.

@mm3rik 5 месяцев назад

hi matt , from watching you start it up and it tries to idle on first start then revs up , i have seen this before on a cummins bigcam 855 , it was caused by a stuck pressure relieve valve on the return to tank line on the engine (it looks like a banjo bolt ) the head of the bolt has a ball bearing forced into its head , you may also find one on the lift pump . the P T setup uses a increased pressure /volume to make more revs , a diesel truck does not have any air metering on the inlet side (you can remove all the inlet pipework and it will not rev any harder so air leaks are not a issue . i hope this helps (a old railroad maintance engineer )worked on bigcam 855 turbo /intercooled (285 to 450 hp )

@kevinwhitehill7049 5 месяцев назад

The vernier throttle cables were used to increase RPMs without having to control the foot feed. This had multiple functions including PTO, cruise (although not intended or recommended) but primarily to warm the truck up in colder weather.

@SalvageWorkshop 5 месяцев назад

I agree completely with you! It may not be recommended, but I've used that feature as cruise... you do have to pay a BIT more attention to things, especially when slowing down, but it works quite well on long trips! The high idle for warm ups is also a great use for it!

My experiences with Cornbinders are nothing but bad. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS REPAIRING THEM. Paying nothing for it was the right thing to do. I learned more about cussing from driving a Cornbinder than I did during my three years in the military. The closest I came to spanking my dad was the time he borrowed a neighbor's Cornbinder pickup and had me haul trash to the dump. I said words I never heard in the service. After I gave my dad the worst chewing he ever had he never borrowed another Cornbinder from anyone.

@russgier4409 5 месяцев назад

Most class 8 trucks about the mid 80s were 12 volts as technology advanced and the series/parallel switch proved to be a weak link . Trying to start with less than 3 batteries is a recipe for frustration, one simply doesnt have the capacity for prolonged cranking, on a cummins pt system check your return lineto the tank for flow rate, a restriction can affect it working properly

@markpeterson5479 5 месяцев назад

When he retired, my dad gave me two of those curved wrenches - he said that they were for installing starter motors. One is 9/16 & 3/4, the other is 9/16 & 5/8 both made by Bonney. I used them when I replaced the starter on my 1970 Ford Econoline Van.

@ralphnorris-vk8ff 5 месяцев назад

On the fuel tanks, draw means that you can only get about 115gallon out of a 121 gallon tank. The pickup tube doesn't go all the way to the bottom so it doesn't such the crud on the bottom of the tank.

That tank is attached to an air drier that is on the inside of the frame, so i think you are right, it's part of the air drier system!

Heck yes another Salvage !! I would day the fuel pump ....I say you did great working on this out in the field !! It runs and thats all that matters !! Cant wait to see what is next !! 👍👍

@usernamesreprise4068 5 месяцев назад

ALL Diesels ALL OF THEM are open atmosphere induction systems, meaning they dont USE throttle butterfly valves, they rev up purely by varying the amount of diesel fuel delivered through the injectors hence the need for a governor in the pump to prevent run aways, it is NOT a case of it sucking air into the fuel feed pipes that will be causing the overspeed runaways. whatever different manufacturers engines the principle is always the same if the execution is different, I would personally revisit that govenor to check it is operating the counter weights properly, the other avenue of investigation I would take would be check the overfuel returns from the injectors back to the tank, if THEY are blocked the build up of fuel into the injectors will cause it to full send........the fact that it tops out at two and half grand leads me to assume it is a mild partial blockage, if it just kept pumping in diesel without the excess being returned to the tank it would simply keep revving faster and faster till it threw a rod out of the block or the crank snapped.....in fact check the fuel RETURNS first before the ball ache of taking the stater motor and pump off again I wouldnt be at all surprised to find the injectors had more one way ball valves in the top for pressure relief.....hope this helps........I was the guy who gave you the S.U Carb advice a few years back if you recall.

Sensational content. Entertaining, funny and so informative. Keep up the good work.

@jasonjaros1385 5 месяцев назад

Its 100% in the pump even if its sucking air that will not cause that as long as the throttel linkage is returning

Like your attitude, step by step and prioritize and evaluate/ repeat 👍🏼

@tiredoldmechanic1791 5 месяцев назад

You can check with Area diesel but I think that fitting you cleaned out was the fuel return. If it plugs up, the fuel pressure starts to go up which causes the engine to run faster which runs the pump faster which further raises the fuel pressure which causes the engine to go faster which again runs the pump faster increasing the pressure. Maybe you can add a pressure gauge. I think the fitting is supposed to act as a check valve to prevent the fuel returning to the tank when the engine isn't running. It might be as simple as replacing that fitting.

Sounds logical and matches the observations. Another person reacted "if it's a runaway, it will not react to turning off the ignition key".

I reckon it's on backwards

Thank you for using your words in your restoration videos. I really appreciate it.

@fairlanefivehundred 5 месяцев назад

I had an L10 that I remember didn’t want to idle down, and I remember having to hook a tarp strap either on the firewall or down to the frame, to pull on the throttle linkage a little. It seems like it didn’t have a throttle return spring on it like on a carburetor, and that strap kept it from idling up too much. Just a thought. Love your videos!

@greenearth2009 5 месяцев назад

You have what I thought about also the spring on the throttle linkage, weak, broken or missing. I have had them break or come loose and engine run wide open. Nice old truck, my old truck was parked for 30 years and just started it last year.

@jamesyoung448 5 месяцев назад

The cab and frame on that truck doesn't look that bad cosmetically it looks a little rough but I think the truck is saveable like many others here I believe your issues are in the pump good luck and I hope to see this truck on the road some day Happy New Year.

@jim6985 4 месяца назад

Glad to see your back Erin. Not sure if that's some new equipment or not, but it looks new. I know you guys keep it in immaculate condition. Nice to see some harvest video,s in the winter.

@stephencooney9870 5 месяцев назад

Without any doubt, its the fuel pump. Take it off again and send it to Area Diesel Services, if you had done that when you took it off the first time it would be fixed now. If air could make revs like that we would not need diesel. Happy new year to you and all other watchers.

@nemesismcc 5 месяцев назад

If you ever sort out the Semi, and can get it back to roadworthiness, it would make the ideal tower for your trailers, what with all the power that engine would have, and being made for heavy haulage it would be a fantastic addition to your fleet

@dougsmonsters4866 5 месяцев назад

Those metal chucks are like the rear stands on big wreckers. Great bits of kit, that truck is really a multi tool of trucks.

@brianelliot2719 5 месяцев назад

Thanks! I laughed at your comments about family friendly content..We’ve all been there…and thoughts on the starter should not be recorded while in progress.😊

@farmerbrown3768 4 месяца назад

I used to work on all kinds of heavy equipment and have done the very same thing your doing now( I kept hollering for you to do this not that) but now that I’m retired I can’t imagine doing this anymore! You remind me of me at your age! Kudos to you.👍

@mikesmith8952 5 месяцев назад

I'll guess that the rear brakes are rusted to the brake drums. A BFH usually helps to free them up, usually. Don't brake anything else trying 💪💪👍😊💯

@carlbernard4197 5 месяцев назад

Had to do that plenty of times because living up north here. Things would freeze up and so time for a BFH for the home run 😅😅😅😅😅

@tiredoldmechanic1791 5 месяцев назад

The fuel tank size are the volume it can hold and the volume that can be drawn out of the tank if you leave room for expansion and before it sucks air.

@carlnelson3893 5 месяцев назад

Matt over at Diesel Creek seems to have lots of experience starting old abandoned diesel machines with Cummins or Detroit engines in them. I'm sure he could help. Great video in getting this far with that 1995 tractor ! Engine sounds good when running .Lots of useful parts so this gift is gold.👍👍👍

@normmcrae1140 5 месяцев назад

AND People wonder why we Mechanics ABSOLUTELY HATE ENGINEERS! I've always said that EVERY ENGINEER should spend 3 YEARS in the field under a Mechanic before they're allowed to design anything more complicated than an O-Ring.

@SalvageWorkshop 5 месяцев назад

I completely agree! Things aren't usually designed to be worked on like we ALWAYS have to do!

@jerrycarr8105 5 месяцев назад

I agree comletely

@usernamesreprise4068 5 месяцев назад

As a retired mechanical engineer I couldnt agree more, it is something I always instilled in all the apprentices I ever had under me.....design engineers dont have to lay in the dirt at stupid o clock on a rainy night struggling to repair something almost unreachable that some engineering draughtsman thought LOOKED good on his blueprints. it is a dilema of the modern age as manufacturers seek to cram more and more junk into ever decreasing engine bays.

@how_to_hallagon1 5 месяцев назад

They keep you in the shop to make money for the company. If engineers do what you want they end out unemployed.

@MauroTamm 5 месяцев назад

I would say those are architects who design such stuff. An engineer is an architect with experience, likely a former mechanic. At least it is so for software. Only former developers can become engineers.

@TestECull 5 месяцев назад

1:45:33 I still suspect turbo seals. It smokes still. Disconnect the charge pipe from the intake manifold, start it up, and if it doesn't run away there's your problem. If it does, then have ADS go through the injection pump in their shop.

@lornperkins4270 5 месяцев назад

That turbo sounds bad ass..especially when you shut it down..oh my goodness that whistle..WOO..they don't make them like that anymore

@maxwallace6628 5 месяцев назад

Great video. Happy New Year and keep up the great work.

@MatthewBerginGarage 5 месяцев назад

I like to take starters out and run them for 10 or 15 seconds without load to clean the commutator and brushes before asking it to handle high current. The comms get quite corroded when they sit. She sure cleaned up when the turbo started spinning

@SalvageWorkshop 5 месяцев назад

Yeah I can see that helping things some, but It took most of a DAY to get the starter removed, and in the process I had to cut the nose off the solenoid... I'm not going through that unless I absolutely HAVE to! Most times getting good connections to the starter does enough for me and the old junk I work on!

@user-ny4fr1dw5v 5 месяцев назад

Hi Buddy make sure that the return line from the pump to the diesel tank is not blocked or pinched closed. They will Rev up if your return line is restricted

@SalvageWorkshop 5 месяцев назад

That is a great suggestion... and will be the FIRST thing I look into! Thanks for the thought!
